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。 B'~i Z65

It was many and many a year ago, JZ0+VB-3U
In a kingdom by the sea, X~VZ61vNu
That a maiden there lived whom you may know IaqN@IlWb
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- |&*rSp2iH
And this maiden she lived with no other thought y,eoTmaI
Than to love and be loved by me. .:Xe* Q
She was a child and I was a child, N9hWx()v
In this kingdom by the sea, uPD_s

But we loved with a love that was more than love-- ~9 nrS9)
I and my Annabel Lee-- g}`CdVQ2M<
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven WED7]2>
Coveted her and me. )n61IqrW

And this was the reason that, long ago, \FX3=WW
In this kingdom by the sea, Tfs9<k>G#
A wind blew out of a cloud by night B

Chilling my Annabel Lee; X7!A(q+h
So that her high-born kinsman came 9_^V1+
And bore her away from me, #3jZ7RqzQ
To shut her up in a sepulchre "@bk$o=
In this kingdom by the sea. $w}aX0dK&

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, ;{u#~d}
Went envying her and me:-- Z.f<6<gF
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know, e"09b<69
In this kingdom by the sea) j>=".^J
That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling ({62GWnn_
And killing my Annabel Lee. C3Z(k}

But our love it was stronger by far than the love s0'U[]
Of those who were older than we-- Eu_0n6J
Of many far wiser than we- W|

And neither the angels in Heaven above, nr6[rq
Nor the demons down under the sea, oO,p.X%
