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。 RZm%4_p4s

It was many and many a year ago, Ae+)RBpc
In a kingdom by the sea, pk/#RUfT+
That a maiden there lived whom you may know cqS :Zq
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- qTd[DaG#
And this maiden she lived with no other thought |h>PUt@LL
Than to love and be loved by me. ;sZG=y@
She was a child and I was a child, Gt9$hB7
In this kingdom by the sea, 2 |s ohF
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- ?Z7`TnG$uf
I and my Annabel Lee-- GM%+yS}(P
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven n|w+08c"
Coveted her and me. 3!"N;Q"

And this was the reason that, long ago, >='/%Ad
In this kingdom by the sea, Km`

A wind blew out of a cloud by night jT{T#_
Chilling my Annabel Lee; k$w~JO!s
So that her high-born kinsman came Ts

And bore her away from me, \G" S7
To shut her up in a sepulchre &S,D;uhF
In this kingdom by the sea. UN]gn>~j

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, e1m?g&[
Went envying her and me:-- t'eqk#rq
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know, Z!1D4`w
In this kingdom by the sea) 1-KNXGb'
That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling I`kfe`_
And killing my Annabel Lee. Z/#_Swv

But our love it was stronger by far than the love :Ha/^cC/3
Of those who were older than we-- LKIMT
Of many far wiser than we- m[9.'@ye
And neither the angels in Heaven above, :
\+xXb{
Nor the demons down under the sea, :C~Ar]
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul *'<AwG&
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:-- Kg[OUBv

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams :!`"GaTy
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; Da=EAG-{7
And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes Mt[yY|Ec|
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; /{i~CGc;"
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side `ONjEl
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride, b_0THy.Z
In her sepulchre there by the sea-- Kc/1LeAik
In her tomb by the side of the sea.
