Poco tempo fa la mia tanto "amata" professoressa di inglese (seconda scientifico e sembra di fare un liceo linguistico...) ci ha dato l'onore di scrivere una storia di circa 250 parole da esporre alla classe.
Allora la mia storia, che vi sembrerà banale, è ispirata alla musica Blues e tutti i personaggi richiamano grandissimi musicisti. Potrebbe quasi sembrare un infimo tributo alla loro genialità. Per puro caso la mia storia non è stata letta alla classe quindi ho deciso di farla leggere a voi. Scusate per gli errori e l'inglese pessimo ma vi assicuro che la buona volontà c'è tutta :D
Se volete vi scrivo in un diario a parte a traduzione in Italiano.
There was once an old bluesman who has been playing his guitar and his harmonica in the streets of New Orleans since he was a boy. Everybody called him Delta King but no one knew his real name.
Delta always dressed with an old hat that belonget to his grandfather, a dirty shirt and a pair of ruined pants. His cousin Stevie Ray had given him a black cloak that Delta used to wear during the winter.
His guitar was an old Gibson that the bluesman had bought before the great war, but "she" played wonderfully, better than new guitars.
In his life Delta wrote a lot of songs. In his songs he told about the old New Orleans, the Mississippi, the lifes of the colored people and olso about love. But his guitar and his music were the only loves of Delta.
One day, while he was playing in the French Quarter, he saw a beautiful girl and fell in love immediately. This girl was called Lucille and was the cousin of Buddy, one of Delta's best friends.
Buddy organized a date between the bluesman and his cousin. After a few dates Delta, who was madly in love with her, decided to ask Lucille to marry him. He sold his guitar to buy a ring as a gift to his girlfiend.
But Lucille didn't love Delta. In fact, while Delta was preparing his declaration of marriage, she ran away with a guy called Jimi.
Delta was so sad: he had lost his guitar and his love, but he still had his most precious thing: the music! He bought a new guitar and named it as the girl he had loved. Whit "Lucille" and his harmonica he wrote a fantastic songs that was inspired by his love.
Delta became famous and he lived with his love Lucille happily ever after.
P.S. Also Jimi became famous and forget quickly the "real" Lucille =)
