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。 o^//|]H3Y

It was many and many a year ago, 3Co1bY:
In a kingdom by the sea, 7Kb&BF|Q
That a maiden there lived whom you may know e"XolM0IM
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- {;zHkmx
And this maiden she lived with no other thought m({q<&]Qp
Than to love and be loved by me. *.+F]-
She was a child and I was a child,
qt/6o|V
In this kingdom by the sea, lN{>.q@V`r
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- e7\gd\
I and my Annabel Lee-- P4c3kO0
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven [KbLEMrPba
Coveted her and me. p>:.js5.a

And this was the reason that, long ago, (x.qyYEoI
In this kingdom by the sea, AN[pjC<
A wind blew out of a cloud by night JP
{`^c
Chilling my Annabel Lee; ImH9 F\
So that her high-born kinsman came [;F!\B-
And bore her away from me, D!Nc&|X^
To shut her up in a sepulchre zxx9)I@?A
In this kingdom by the sea. 1&7?f

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, )FIFf;r
Went envying her and me:-- Gv
}
Yes! that was the reason (as all men know, W$J.B!O
In this kingdom by the sea) nmE

That the wind came out of a cloud, chilling hb/Z{T'
And killing my Annabel Lee. ]VtP7Y
*8yC6|wL?
But our love it was stronger by far than the love I3T;|;P7
Of those who were older than we-- ]W~M?1}
Of many far wiser than we- [z=!OFdE
And neither the angels in Heaven above, ;'Z"CbS+
Nor the demons down under the sea, ncOl}\Q9
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul ,pf\g[tz
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:-- 48G^$ T{

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams _,UYbD\[J}
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; %]tW2s"
And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes p<l+js(5|
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; m6xbO
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side ,+gtr.
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride, ^"vmIC.h
In her sepulchre there by the sea-- ;<E?NBV^
In her tomb by the side of the sea.
