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。 "79"SSfOc

It was many and many a year ago, d^W1;0
In a kingdom by the sea, c2fqueK|:W
That a maiden there lived whom you may know y>jP]LR4
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- *Iir/6myM
And this maiden she lived with no other thought p"k[ac{
Than to love and be loved by me. |xX>AMZc)D
She was a child and I was a child, ^Z`?mNq9
In this kingdom by the sea, @teNT"
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- aZBb@~Y
I and my Annabel Lee-- X|wg7>kh*`
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven .!Qo+(
Coveted her and me. o|O|e9m(

And this was the reason that, long ago, w</qUOx
In this kingdom by the sea, '3eL^Aq
A wind blew out of a cloud by night *p=a-s5-
Chilling my Annabel Lee; 4y|%Oj
So that her high-born kinsman came ;fl3'.S[
And bore her away from me, u{d\3-]/
To shut her up in a sepulchre <WCTJ!Z
In this kingdom by the sea. Mlm dfO%Y

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, qG?svt
Went envying her and me:-- ^mZ eAW
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know, #[ZNiaWT
In this kingdom by the sea) c

That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling V3t;V-Lkt
And killing my Annabel Lee. >2[nTfS

But our love it was stronger by far than the love K%iA-h
Of those who were older than we-- A[6D40o
Of many far wiser than we- 2SHS!6:Rl
And neither the angels in Heaven above, AttS?TZr
Nor the demons down under the sea, =&YhA}l\O
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul e3!0<A[X

Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; Z(0sMOaX
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side P{ HYZg
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride, . ]D7Il
In her sepulchre there by the sea-- wOU\&u|
In her tomb by the side of the sea.
