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}>Sc=e<

It was many and many a year ago, N-XOPwx'
In a kingdom by the sea, e$HN/O
That a maiden there lived whom you may know G.v zz-yG
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- 6mcxp+lm|
And this maiden she lived with no other thought #[ZF'9x
Than to love and be loved by me.
W/03L, 1
She was a child and I was a child, =eG?O7z&
In this kingdom by the sea, Ay?KE{Qs '
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- n^F:p*)Q%
I and my Annabel Lee-- hM}rf6B
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven Yq~$Q4
Coveted her and me. 8!8 yA

And this was the reason that, long ago, {OFbU
In this kingdom by the sea, R@*mMWW,
A wind blew out of a cloud by night 1Rrp#E}
Chilling my Annabel Lee; 0($@9k4!/
So that her high-born kinsman came * V;L|c
And bore her away from me, M "QT(u+
To shut her up in a sepulchre X!=E1TL
In this kingdom by the sea. Vl=!^T}l+

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, @J J,$?
Went envying her and me:-- b(^g v
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know, Axb,{X[6g
In this kingdom by the sea) #4hxbRN

But our love it was stronger by far than the love G@s]HJ:
Of those who were older than we-- ,w>WuRN"
Of many far wiser than we- /S4$qr cM
