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。 h/-7;Csv

It was many and many a year ago, +u25>pX
In a kingdom by the sea, ZpI _/
That a maiden there lived whom you may know y~ ^>my7G
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;-- \2eYw.I=
And this maiden she lived with no other thought ] ^
Than to love and be loved by me. 0#Rj[J;kh
She was a child and I was a child, 8 _`Lx_R
In this kingdom by the sea, ?ADk`ts~,}
But we loved with a love that was more than love-- r

I and my Annabel Lee-- -cq ~\m^6
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven `Rj

Coveted her and me. b'vJPv~hI

And this was the reason that, long ago, 4Z]^v4vb
In this kingdom by the sea, vbwEX 6
A wind blew out of a cloud by night r]0 o
Chilling my Annabel Lee; b;!ilBc
So that her high-born kinsman came BIV]4vl-&
And bore her away from me, r\=p.cw<
To shut her up in a sepulchre *p.ELI1IC
In this kingdom by the sea. :GL|

Yes! that was the reason (as all men know, 9R.tkc|K

But our love it was stronger by far than the love r OB\u|Pg

And neither the angels in Heaven above, a[9;Okm#

Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
