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+1B6S

It was many and many a year ago, \ 7IT[<Se
In a kingdom by the sea, KOoV'YSC[(
That a maiden there lived whom you may know $LcMG,8%_
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- h92KU
And this maiden she lived with no other thought X~/-,oV=A
Than to love and be loved by me. CW

She was a child and I was a child, 4YoQ*NQw-
In this kingdom by the sea, #o,FVYYj
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- ;f=.SJF
I and my Annabel Lee-- oE2VJKs<B
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven ?}= $zN
Coveted her and me. e
