Dear Student,
a) A thing of beauty is an everlasting joy because it never ceases to bring happiness and peace, as it doesn't pass into nothingness and only continues to beautify our lives.
b) With time, a thing of beauty makes a profound impression on our mind and continues to give joy and peace. That's how its loveliness never decreases.
c) The feeling of joy and serenity associated with a thing of beauty stays with us throughout and its loveliness captured in our imagination. Our mind treasures that feeling which continues to bring happiness in times of sorrow.
d) Appreciating things of beauty and savouring them for the joy they bring, reveal the inner thoughts of a person.
e) The poet dwells on the idea of things of beauty to be kept close for they continue to bring peace and happiness in times of distress and sorrow. All of nature is beautiful, soothing our soul and making us love our lives, in spite of great difficulties.
Regards
