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。 LXm5f;

It was many and many a year ago, NPL(5@
In a kingdom by the sea, h5:>o
That a maiden there lived whom you may know Y}/e"mp
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- 6Wm`Vj(s
And this maiden she lived with no other thought EP|OKXRltA
Than to love and be loved by me. !p4y@U{
She was a child and I was a child, $\DOy&e
In this kingdom by the sea, *r&q;ER
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- ?)ROQ1-#@
I and my Annabel Lee-- kYVn4Wq
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven xgX"5Czvv`
Coveted her and me. bHi0N@W!vG

And this was the reason that, long ago, 9<9 c^2
In this kingdom by the sea, c:R`]4o
A wind blew out of a cloud by night 1ud+~y$K
Chilling my Annabel Lee; \;h+:[<e1
So that her high-born kinsman came :UyNa0$l:"
And bore her away from me, aa'u5<<W
To shut her up in a sepulchre ^zMME*G

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, /ox9m7Fz7

But our love it was stronger by far than the love [`_ZlC
Of those who were older than we-- 3y9K'
Of many far wiser than we- 4r&S&^
And neither the angels in Heaven above, b* QRd
Nor the demons down under the sea, >z`^Q[
