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。 *%xbn8

In a kingdom by the sea, *g5bdQ:Av~
That a maiden there lived whom you may know Eq-+g1a
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- 0E.N3

And this maiden she lived with no other thought hHJiGVJ=V
Than to love and be loved by me. oR#W@OK@is

But we loved with a love that was more than love-- U>tR :)
I and my Annabel Lee-- gt{kjrTv&
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven 2w|5SK_
Coveted her and me. 20Zxv!

But our love it was stronger by far than the love i{$-[*WHiV
Of those who were older than we-- >n7h%c

Nor the demons down under the sea, TdFU,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul wFM
