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。 i{N?Y0YQs0

It was many and many a year ago, /Bgqf,N |
In a kingdom by the sea, QsKnaRT
That a maiden there lived whom you may know bHm/Z Zx
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- v B~ VJKD
And this maiden she lived with no other thought t
c.|mIvw
Than to love and be loved by me. 13 L&f \b
She was a child and I was a child, 9ec

In this kingdom by the sea, @Oz3A<M
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- %w>3Fwj`z
I and my Annabel Lee-- |g \ _ xl
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven !/H `
Coveted her and me. lGK7XAx,
#l+Rs3T:
And this was the reason that, long ago, ]O:u9If
In this kingdom by the sea, z7BFkZ6+
A wind blew out of a cloud by night oR`rs[Kj
Chilling my Annabel Lee; +MHIZ

So that her high-born kinsman came |1 H9,:*%
And bore her away from me, \c{sG\ >
To shut her up in a sepulchre 8(-

In this kingdom by the sea. o3 Yb2Nw

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, ?{ \7th37
Went envying her and me:-- ;Q&9 t
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know, 5{ +>3J
In this kingdom by the sea) :I /9j= @1
That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling pRlScD_};
And killing my Annabel Lee. xc-[g t6

But our love it was stronger by far than the love +68 age;dM
Of those who were older than we-- 9 a@S^B>
Of many far wiser than we- lmUCrs37
And neither the angels in Heaven above, ^GYVRD
Nor the demons down under the sea, q;QasAQS`p
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul 4`o0?_.'
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:-- Q;l%@)m+~

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams IDpLf*vSG
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; 1Hhr6T^)
And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes 2N |iOog
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; #a@ jt
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side %j@/Tx/
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride, IC"ktv bHz
In her sepulchre there by the sea-- m4uh<;C~
In her tomb by the side of the sea.
