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。 *WT`o>

By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- O1mKe%'|
And this maiden she lived with no other thought *D3/@S$B
Than to love and be loved by me. WeiFmar
She was a child and I was a child, xZv#Es%#

But we loved with a love that was more than love-- m%e68c
I and my Annabel Lee-- RdML3E
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven VU d\QR-
