Brooke's best-known work is the sonnet sequence 1914 AND OTHER POEMS (1915), containing the famous 'The Soldier.' Poets have always glorified war, and Brooke did his best to continue the tradition, and sacrifice himself in this effort.
Brooke's appeal began to wane after the acrid poems of Wilfred Owen (1893-1918), who was machine-gunned to death, and Siegfried Sassoon's visions of "the hell where youth and laugher go," as Sassoon wrote.
Brooke's chivalry became his literary burden and he is now chiefly valued for his lighter verse, for the Tahiti poems, and for a few sonnets.

Brooke composes The Soldier in the traditional form of the Petrarchian (or Italian) sonnet, with the fourteen lines of iambic pentameter divided into an octave (a stanza composed of eight lines) and a sestet (a stanza composed of six lines).
Rupert Brooke intended for the poem to inspire patriotism in the English in World War I, and he wished for The Soldier to be easily understood by everyone, thereby avoiding any heavy metaphorical meanings to the poem.
Brooke additionally deviates from the common question in the octave followed by the common solution in the sestet: in The Soldier there is no predicament, but instead just patriotic inspiration throughout the entire sonnet.
