关于有趣的英文诗歌篇一
学习啦在线学习网 Next Door
by Joan Selinger Sidney
Oaks drag alongside the road,
weighted by yesterday‘s snow.
学习啦在线学习网 There‘s Frauka walking alone,
the hood of her parka
snow-lit against the trees.
I pull over. How is he? But before
学习啦在线学习网 I can answer, I see them last
summer: Frauka, and Father
学习啦在线学习网 leaning on Mother, wanting to believe
her will can make him well.
Sitting on the lawn,
pretending to read, I am unable
to tell them, My legs won‘t walk.
Go on without me.
Eleven years I‘ve protected them—
Holocaust survivors—by not naming
学习啦在线学习网 my disease. Wishing them dead
before they‘d see me in a wheelchair.
学习啦在线学习网 Frauka whispers, My younger brother
died one day before your father.
学习啦在线学习网 Tears rim her eyes, her slim
学习啦在线学习网 body shivers in the wind.
For a moment we are closer
学习啦在线学习网 in our sorrow than we‘ve ever been
关于有趣的英文诗歌篇二
Next Day
by Randall Jarrell
Moving from Cheer to Joy, from Joy to All,
I take a box
学习啦在线学习网 And add it to my wild rice, my Cornish game hens.
The slacked or shorted, basketed, identical
Food-gathering flocks
Are selves I overlook. Wisdom, said William James,
Is learning what to overlook. And I am wise
If that is wisdom.
学习啦在线学习网 Yet somehow, as I buy All from these shelves
学习啦在线学习网 And the boy takes it to my station wagon,
学习啦在线学习网 What I've become
Troubles me even if I shut my eyes.
学习啦在线学习网 When I was young and miserable and pretty
And poor, I'd wish
学习啦在线学习网 What all girls wish: to have a husband,
A house and children. Now that I'm old, my wish
Is womanish:
That the boy putting groceries in my car
See me. It bewilders me he doesn't see me.
学习啦在线学习网 For so many years
I was good enough to eat: the world looked at me
And its mouth watered. How often they have undressed me,
学习啦在线学习网 The eyes of strangers!
学习啦在线学习网 And, holding their flesh within my flesh, their vile
学习啦在线学习网 Imaginings within my imagining,
学习啦在线学习网 I too have taken
The chance of life. Now the boy pats my dog
And we start home. Now I am good.
学习啦在线学习网 The last mistaken,
Ecstatic, accidental bliss, the blind
Happiness that, bursting, leaves upon the palm
Some soap and water——
It was so long ago, back in some Gay
Twenties, Nineties, I don't know . . . Today I miss
学习啦在线学习网 My lovely daughter
Away at school, my sons away at school,
My husband away at work——I wish for them.
学习啦在线学习网 The dog, the maid,
And I go through the sure unvarying days
At home in them. As I look at my life,
I am afraid
学习啦在线学习网 Only that it will change, as I am changing:
I am afraid, this morning, of my face.
学习啦在线学习网 It looks at me
From the rear-view mirror, with the eyes I hate,
学习啦在线学习网 The smile I hate. Its plain, lined look
Of gray discovery
Repeats to me: "You're old." That's all, I'm old.
学习啦在线学习网 And yet I'm afraid, as I was at the funeral
I went to yesterday.
My friend's cold made-up face, granite among its flowers,
Her undressed, operated-on, dressed body
Were my face and body.
学习啦在线学习网 As I think of her I hear her telling me
How young I seem; I am exceptional;
I think of all I have.
But really no one is exceptional,
No one has anything, I'm anybody,
学习啦在线学习网 I stand beside my grave
学习啦在线学习网 Confused with my life, that is commonplace and solitary.

Niggerlips
by Martín Espada
学习啦在线学习网 Niggerlips was the high school name for me.
学习啦在线学习网 So called by Douglas
the car mechanic, with green tattoos
on each forearm,
学习啦在线学习网 and the choir of round pink faces
that grinned deliciously
from the back row of classrooms,
学习啦在线学习网 droned over by teachers
学习啦在线学习网 checking attendance too slowly.
学习啦在线学习网 Douglas would brag
about cruising his car
near sidewalks of black children
学习啦在线学习网 to point an unloaded gun,
学习啦在线学习网 to scare niggers
like crows off a tree,
he'd say.
学习啦在线学习网 My great-grandfather Luis
was un negrito too,
学习啦在线学习网 a shoemaker in the coffee hills
of Puerto Rico, 1900.
The family called him a secret
学习啦在线学习网 and kept no photograph.
学习啦在线学习网 My father remembers
the childhood white powder
that failed to bleach
学习啦在线学习网 his stubborn copper skin,
and the family says
he is still a fly in milk.
学习啦在线学习网 So Niggerlips has the mouth
of his great-grandfather,
学习啦在线学习网 the song he must have sung
学习啦在线学习网 as he pounded the leather and nails,
the heat that courses through copper,
学习啦在线学习网 the stubbornness of a fly in milk,
学习啦在线学习网 and all you have, Douglas,
is that unloaded gun.

One Petition Lofted into the Ginkos
学习啦在线学习网 by Gabriel Gudding
For the train-wrecked, the puck-struck,the viciously punched,
he pole-vaulter whose pole snapped in ascent.
学习啦在线学习网 For his asphalt-face,his capped-off scream,
学习啦在线学习网 God bless his dad in the stands.
For the living dog in the median
学习啦在线学习网 car-struck and shuddering on crumpled haunches,
eyes large as plates, seeing nothing, but looking,looking.
学习啦在线学习网 For the blessed pigeon who threw himself from the cliff
after plucking out his feathers just to taste a failing death.
学习啦在线学习网 For the poisoned, scalded, and gassed, the bayoneted,
学习啦在线学习网 the bit and blind-sided,asthmatic veteran who just before his first date in years
学习啦在线学习网 and years swallowed his own glass eye.
学习啦在线学习网 For these and all and all the drunk,
学习啦在线学习网 Imagine a handful of quarters chucked up at sunset,
学习啦在线学习网 lofted into the ginkgos and there,at apogee,
while the whole ringing wad pauses, pink-lit,
学习啦在线学习网 about to seed the penny-colored earth with an hour's wages
学习啦在线学习网 As shining, ringing, brief, and cheap as a prayer should be
学习啦在线学习网 Imagine it all falling into some dark machine brimming with nurses,
学习啦在线学习网 nutrices ex machina and they blustering out with juices and gauze,
peaches and brushes,to patch such dents and wounds.
