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。 byxlC?q7

It was many and many a year ago, 5rows]EJJl
In a kingdom by the sea, cu N9RG
That a maiden there lived whom you may know u%~'+=
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- C< c6Ub
And this maiden she lived with no other thought YGJ!!(~r
Than to love and be loved by me. "pM>TMAE
She was a child and I was a child, |%C2 cx
In this kingdom by the sea, z2iMpZ
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- w.q`E@ T*
I and my Annabel Lee-- `eMZhYo
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven }PBme'kP
Coveted her and me. 7GOBb|

But our love it was stronger by far than the love a;xeHbE
Of those who were older than we-- Wx:v~/r
