So, you discovered Yahoo Answers just in the nick of time to help finish your homework, eh? What a pity that life is so short you need to have someone else do your critical thinking!

First of all, correct the title of the poem and the author:

La Belle Dame sans Merci by John Keats

Wait a second, I am "sans merci" when it comes to doing someone's summary for them.

Au revoir.

Now, go do some searching courtesy of Yahoo or Google.

The poem is the recounting of a knight, who appears to be sick and fading away - possibly to death. He speaks of meeting a beautiful woman, for whom he made a flower garland, and taking her on his horse to her elfin abode. There, she lulls him to sleep, and he dreams of other nobles who have come before him, who all warn him that he is now in the power of La Belle Dame sans Merci - the beautiful woman without mercy. He awakes and finds himself alone, and wanders aimlessly in his feverish sickness - not having ever slept since.

It's a very short poem, so it would be difficult to give you a summary. You can read the poem there:
