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。 ]Sz:|%JP1

It was many and many a year ago, NB#OCH1/9
In a kingdom by the sea, Bahm]2
That a maiden there lived whom you may know g2ixx+`?|:
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- %E>Aw>]v
And this maiden she lived with no other thought KqJs?Won
Than to love and be loved by me. hH3RP{'=
She was a child and I was a child, KC6.Fr{
In this kingdom by the sea, 9>/4W.
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- b3[

I and my Annabel Lee-- UHkMn
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven 9T9!kb
Coveted her and me. q!7ANib6O

And this was the reason that, long ago, }C?'BRX
In this kingdom by the sea, ,PW'#U:
A wind blew out of a cloud by night Tv=mgH=b
Chilling my Annabel Lee; WDD%Q8ejV&
So that her high-born kinsman came

And bore her away from me, K

To shut her up in a sepulchre >\#*P'y`d
In this kingdom by the sea. $GcqBg-Hi

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, C2I_%nU Z1
Went envying her and me:-- q`7PhA
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know, j2[+ztG
In this kingdom by the sea) &`r-.&Y
That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling ie95rZp
And killing my Annabel Lee. /Iokf@5

But our love it was stronger by far than the love P|E| $)m
Of those who were older than we-- ()?(I?II
Of many far wiser than we- "Gzz4D
And neither the angels in Heaven above, 1(R}tRR7 R
Nor the demons down under the sea, + GN(Ug'R
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul !i
