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。 X,9 M"E

It was many and many a year ago, ~]ZpA-*@Ut
In a kingdom by the sea, AwQ?l(iZ"p
That a maiden there lived whom you may know [@yV!#2
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- v\(2&*
And this maiden she lived with no other thought R |i/lEq
Than to love and be loved by me. R<B7K?SxV~
She was a child and I was a child, C8F 7bG8c
In this kingdom by the sea, <n3!{w3<
But we loved with a love that was more than love--
