上面那首罗伯特·弗罗斯特的诗，太深沉，太富有哲理，可能不太适合小姑娘。我另选了Edgar Allan Poe的诗，据说是韵律最美的英文诗之一。讲述一个凄美的爱情故事。 ]Ar\c["

It was many and many a year ago, ~4s'0 w^
In a kingdom by the sea, yY[<0|o u
That a maiden there lived whom you may know OCZ[D{i9@
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- &VV~%jl;k
And this maiden she lived with no other thought 3}@_hS"^8
Than to love and be loved by me. iC W*]U
She was a child and I was a child, d? :=PH
In this kingdom by the sea, a@\ D$#2r
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- d}JP!xf%
I and my Annabel Lee-- v^ zu:Z*
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven

Coveted her and me. /ODXV`3QYI
