Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 90 Write “Ode to the Nightingale”

“Hi! Kevin, what’s the matter?” Wall asked curiously.

“Sorry, Mr. Wall, I suddenly thought of something, so I have to mention it to you.”

So, Kevin told Wall of his thoughts. After listening to Kevin’s thoughts, Wall couldn’t help thinking about it, and then said: “Kevin, there is no doubt that your idea is very good. But as far as I know, there are no newspapers or magazines in the UK. Examples of serialized poems by the club. Serialized novels and the like are commonplace.”

Wall’s worries are also valid. After all, no matter whether it is in the UK or other countries, it is rarely said which magazine or newspaper opens a column to serialize some poems. This is also not suitable in the decadent age of poetry.

Kevin can also understand what Wall means if he chooses to publish his poems serially, he may face certain risks.

But Kevin has reason to believe that even in this era, those excellent poems can make people unable to help reading, and can’t help being curious about the passages behind them.

So Kevin said: “Please rest assured, Mr. Wall, I have full confidence. This song “Ode to the Nightingale” will surely make those readers like it. After reading one section, they will definitely be interested in the second section. .”

Wall originally trusted Kevin, especially his potential. So listen to Kevin’s confident assurance. His heart was also shaken.

“Okay! Then let’s try. After you finish writing the first chapter, send it to my mailbox first! At that time, I will explain in the column that there are eight verses of this poem.” Mr. Wall said .

“Okay, Mr. Wall.”

After hanging up with Wall, Kevin began to tap on the keyboard, planning to copy down the eight verses of John Keats’s “Ode to the Nightingale.” Then it was sent to Wall in installments.

So, Kevin began to search the full text of “Ode to the Nightingale” in the literary memory system in his brain.

The first section that Kevin sent to Wall was the first section. The content of the first section roughly talked about the poet listening to the nightingale’s singing, and then placing himself in the fantasy world in his mind. The poem is as follows:

My heart aches, I feel drowsy, numb,

seems to have drunk poisonous poison,

again seems to have swallowed **,

began to sink towards Wang Chuan in the Hades.

It’s not that I am jealous of your blessings,

It’s your joy that makes me overjoyed——

You, the flying tree spirit,

Among the green leaves and shadows of the beech,

at the place where the singing is melodious,

You stretched your throat and sang summer.

…………..

There are not many words in the first section, so Kevin quickly sent it to Wall. Wall was stunned to see Kevin’s speed.

“Oh my God! He is such a pervert. You should know that it hasn’t been long since we just ended the call, and by this time his poems have already been sent.”

Wall couldn’t help but quickly click on it to review. After reading it carefully, he still had a stunned expression, as if he had seen something even more incredible.

“Although this poem is short, the imagination displayed is unprecedented. Kevin, you really deserve to be a genius. The most romantic poet in Britain.”

Yes, this poem has surprised Wall too much. When he clicked on it and saw the front “My heart hurts, I feel drowsy and numb. It seems that I have drunk poisonous poison, and it seems that I have just swallowed the **** and began to sink into the Forgotten River in the Hades.” At that time, he was already deeply curious. Next, what does Kevin want to say?

He continued to look down, “It is not that I am jealous of your blessings, but that your joy makes me overjoyed.” This sentence has been clearly explained as “Your joy makes me overjoyed.” But who or what is this “you”?

When Wall continued to look, he realized that this “you” was just a nightingale.”-You, the winged tree spirit, among the green leaves and shadows of the beech, in the place where the singing is melodious, You stretched your throat and sang summer”

With this excellent poem, Wall doesn’t have to worry too much about the sales of the next issue of Time. He felt that Kevin’s poems should be publicized at this time.

So Wall posted a message on the official Twitter of Time Magazine: Do you remember the romantic poem “When You Are Old”? Kevin’s latest poems will be published in the next issue of Time Magazine. Please support. Thank you.

As soon as the news came out, it naturally attracted the attention of many people. Especially some of Kevin’s readers and some of Bella’s fans.

“Kevin is writing poetry again, which is great. Will it be those romantic writing again?”

“I didn’t know this person, but after listening to Bella’s “When You Are Old”, I started to like this person’s talent. Because his poems are so romantic.”

“I think this will be another excellent poem, because a poet who can write “When You Are Old” will definitely not be bad in his work.”

“Okay! I think I will buy it and have a look.”

Many people said after seeing the official Twitter information of Time Magazine.

At the same time, Bella’s new album is still selling well. In just a few days, this song “When You Are Old” took to the top of the Yali Music Chart. As a rookie singer, this is obviously a good result.

This also makes the outside world give a high degree of recognition to Bella’s talents Many people did not expect that this 19-year-old girl, in addition to mixing in the film and television industry, can also mix in the music industry. .

Bella’s company is also a person with a lack of IQ. After seeing Bella’s songs become popular, they also began to plan to hold concerts all over the country. And the theme of this concert is called “love and be loved”.

“When You Are Old” is the main song of this theme song, so Bella intends to invite the writer of this song, that is, Kevin to attend one of the concerts.

According to the process arrangement the company gave her, Bella’s first stop was Edinburgh. After all, Edinburgh is also a traditional British art city. There are many things related to music and art. And Edinburgh hosts an international art festival every year.

Edinburgh also has many places for singers to hold concerts. Arthur Hall is Edinburgh’s main concert hall for classical music. The concert hall occasionally hosts pop music concerts. This concert hall hosted the 1972 Eurovision Song Contest in its previous life on the earth. The Scottish Chamber Orchestra is also based in Edinburgh.

In addition to the Arthur Concert Hall, Midobank and Murrayfield Stadium also occasionally host large concerts. The British Music Copyright Association listed Edinburgh as one of the top ten music cities in the UK in 2010. Many composers also live here.

So, this is why Bella’s company arranged the first stop of this concert in Edinburgh. Because the music here is the strongest. Perhaps only in this way can the first concert in Bella’s life be successful. (It’s late at night, dear readers, good night, I wish you a good mood and good luck when you wake up tomorrow)
