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。 G l_\Vy

It was many and many a year ago, 3mk=ZWwv
In a kingdom by the sea, '/ihL ^^@L
That a maiden there lived whom you may know 1;aF5~&
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- 8^8>qSD1
And this maiden she lived with no other thought KUF$h Er
Than to love and be loved by me. R!@|6=]iG
She was a child and I was a child, ~:T3|
In this kingdom by the sea, Q! Kn|mnN
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- w2 /* `YO
I and my Annabel Lee-- '!Hhd![\=|
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven pF|8OB%
Coveted her and me. U Ow~rK

And this was the reason that, long ago, ]/LWrQD
In this kingdom by the sea, NvUu.

So that her high-born kinsman came ]{(l;k9=e
And bore her away from me, K*HCFqr U"
To shut her up in a sepulchre `b#/[3

But our love it was stronger by far than the love {5U1`>
Of those who were older than we-- c/b%T
Of many far wiser than we- VPWxHVf
And neither the angels in Heaven above, 5.O-(eSa0&
