A short story inspired by the poem “Ode to a Nightingale” by John Keats.
—————————————————————————————
My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAwpL19SEH
My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QL39UWYat
Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4FvVvgNqg
One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk: 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvP0dgIRLBK
'Tis not through envy of thy happy lot, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3g9wJ0OQlH
But being too happy in thine happiness,— 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYA4Cg9opaG
That thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvtEHet0K9
In some melodious plot 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFEDOmchb9
Of beechen green, and shadows numberless, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVsMHF1N0z
Singest of summer in full-throated ease. 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwQMI9ZyCE
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4A3oy8RXp
O, for a draught of vintage! that hath been 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTJwD000xY
Cool'd a long age in the deep-delved earth, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcbHybTR4A
Tasting of Flora and the country green, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWU9peYb593
Dance, and Provençal song, and sunburnt mirth! 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yRYBnYAPX
O for a beaker full of the warm South, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR1rfORLFy
Full of the true, the blushful Hippocrene, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3JTPWtUta
With beaded bubbles winking at the brim, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaEqbC1i8y
And purple-stained mouth; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk6f8gaU2j
That I might drink, and leave the world unseen, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPB9W7fMxlX
And with thee fade away into the forest dim: 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwtAXvEf12
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKIhSenazM
Fade far away, dissolve, and quite forget 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tuNS6fTW6
What thou among the leaves hast never known, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVrFOrKMBj
The weariness, the fever, and the fret 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qqthi621c
Here, where men sit and hear each other groan; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwG8LzZr1C
Where palsy shakes a few, sad, last gray hairs, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBRj9kVs0Q
Where youth grows pale, and spectre-thin, and dies; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPWP44qCTD
Where but to think is to be full of sorrow 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeMKuDbG0N
And leaden-eyed despairs, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXLjX0Wdj4
Where Beauty cannot keep her lustrous eyes, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1J06uFMaT
Or new Love pine at them beyond to-morrow. 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6We2m6KI6l
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxHjRWrWiX
Away! away! for I will fly to thee, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUQJbRYb1U
Not charioted by Bacchus and his pards, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoU8OL4pRo
But on the viewless wings of Poesy, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURvLEFNnsl
Though the dull brain perplexes and retards: 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjYZTr7wNW
Already with thee! tender is the night, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISg6xHUWgp
And haply the Queen-Moon is on her throne, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmOmgey8V7
Cluster'd around by all her starry Fays; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Gwn54RbsJ
But here there is no light, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTJfKKRXcD
Save what from heaven is with the breezes blown 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqzxNq7x4v
Through verdurous glooms and winding mossy ways. 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos3cn7tDpr
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgTIsEbYuN
I cannot see what flowers are at my feet, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRTkCynTzh
Nor what soft incense hangs upon the boughs, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziBVivUM2R
But, in embalmed darkness, guess each sweet 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfm4V1EIbQq
Wherewith the seasonable month endows 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQkKdbTxRj
The grass, the thicket, and the fruit-tree wild; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm931aEP2FE
White hawthorn, and the pastoral eglantine; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZdjdX7bgI
Fast fading violets cover'd up in leaves; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCCrtxvhuP
And mid-May's eldest child, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaVEAIwZVW
The coming musk-rose, full of dewy wine, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1v8THHUK0
The murmurous haunt of flies on summer eves. 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIdfty0E3d
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0AHzVnhzb
Darkling I listen; and, for many a time 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkwlZcsaGu
I have been half in love with easeful Death, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u9DCapV88
Call'd him soft names in many a mused rhyme, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58Dkhu3TUC
To take into the air my quiet breath; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkLfByC6Vx
Now more than ever seems it rich to die, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMD1FVHt9k
To cease upon the midnight with no pain, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewwjRkzD6P
While thou art pouring forth thy soul abroad 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2M920fkLU
In such an ecstasy! 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3UGUDAegN
Still wouldst thou sing, and I have ears in vain— 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZz0swYT7B
To thy high requiem become a sod. 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUKNdGm2YM
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxW4n8YMtp
Thou wast not born for death, immortal Bird! 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXzPepZATa
No hungry generations tread thee down; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zaUnLvgnA
The voice I hear this passing night was heard 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9aQ8ICLKP
In ancient days by emperor and clown: 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDVsHtINXX
Perhaps the self-same song that found a path 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kCtxNbIMs
Through the sad heart of Ruth, when, sick for home, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGFOue33Gp
She stood in tears amid the alien corn; 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oIlooiobQ
The same that oft-times hath 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEca4JREwa
Charm'd magic casements, opening on the foam 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0TBPxkmNF
Of perilous seas, in faery lands forlorn. 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGH6jchwTP
289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOagaiMvRl
Forlorn! the very word is like a bell 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScCzW3EBbi
To toll me back from thee to my sole self! 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVrAgdA5DA
Adieu! the fancy cannot cheat so well 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jNLRnj5MQ
As she is fam'd to do, deceiving elf. 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOV0rfmJK9
Adieu! adieu! thy plaintive anthem fades 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ijDvu9JGQ
Past the near meadows, over the still stream, 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLstZRP5agY
Up the hill-side; and now 'tis buried deep 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOHbaYwctF
In the next valley-glades: 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMaRadXtLN
Was it a vision, or a waking dream? 289Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxG6EVMacZ
Fled is that music:—Do I wake or sleep?
