Her views towards summer are best expressed in the poem's 31st line, "A empty and silent place between two universes." Summer is described as a "space" between two worlds where the previous and next "seasons" interact, a common ground for the two worlds to meet. This description fits with the image of paradise as a place where humanity can find peace and tranquility, although it also implies that there is nothing special about summer; any other season would serve as well.
Some readers believe that the last three lines of the poem describe how the speaker actually feels about summer. If we look at them in context, however, this interpretation makes no sense whatsoever: "The sun is high, the air is still / There beets grow underground... / What need have I of books or art?" Here we can see that the poet is not thinking about summer at all but rather about some other subject completely. They just happen to come together in his mind while describing its effects on Earth because both topics are related to climate change.
In conclusion, the speaker's feelings about summer are expressed in lines 31-33. He believes that summer is a normal part of life and there's nothing special about it.
The phrase "summer luxury" refers to the delights of summer in the poem "The Poetry of Earth." -A summer luxury is something that you only get to enjoy once every year or so, such as a week at an ocean resort. The word "luxury" here means something that is very nice but not necessary for survival.
Earth's joys - sunshine, rain, flowers, trees, water, and stars - are a summer luxury that few people experience more than us humans. Other animals may enjoy these things too, but we humans love them especially when they are around summertime!
Luxuries are things that you can only afford once in a while because they require money or time away from other needs. For example, eating out at a fancy restaurant or going shopping without any real need for something new would be considered luxuries. Summer is a time of life when almost everyone wants to go to the beach or take a vacation, so those are good examples of summer luxuries.
This short, easy-to-read poem was written by John Keats in 1820.
He does, however, promise that her "everlasting summer will not fade" (line 9). In making such a vow, he verifies that "summer" is symbolic of beauty; his lover's beauty will never fade, as would all other natural beauty, since he is saving it, and her, in the poem's "everlasting lines" (12).
The idea of an everlasting summer comes from ancient poetry. The most famous example is from Theocritus' Idylls, which include several hundred verses written by various poets over a period of about one thousand years. One passage of Idyll XVII reads: "Eternal spring for those whose love endures / through every change of season and each year's progression."
It's not clear from this quotation exactly what kind of spring Theocritus has in mind, but it probably isn't a wintery one. The word he uses here, chrestos, can mean either "season" or "year," and considering the lack of specificity in the quotation, it's easy to see how people have interpreted it as meaning an everlasting summer.
People have also read deeper meanings into the poem than Theocritus probably intended. For example, some scholars believe that he is referring to a kind of marriage contract where both parties agree that if one party dies, then the other remains forever.
