Read the following poem by John Keats. What type of poem is it?

Bright star! would I were steadfast as thou art-

Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night,

And watching, with eternal lids apart,

Like Nature's patient, sleepless Eremite,

The moving waters at their priest-like task

Of pure ablution round earth's human shores,

Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask

Of snow upon the mountains and the moors-

No-yet still steadfast, still unchangeable,

Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast,

To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,[xxii]

Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,

Still, still to hear her tender taken breath,

And so live ever-or else swoon to death.
