关于经典英文诗词篇1
学习啦在线学习网 The Pumpkin
学习啦在线学习网 by John Greenleaf Whittier
学习啦在线学习网 Oh, greenly and fair in the lands of the sun,
The vines of the gourd and the rich melon run,
And the rock and the tree and the cottage enfold,
学习啦在线学习网 With broad leaves all greenness and blossoms all gold,
学习啦在线学习网 Like that which o'er Nineveh's prophet once grew,
学习啦在线学习网 While he waited to know that his warning was true,
And longed for the storm-cloud, and listened in vain
For the rush of the whirlwind and red fire-rain.
学习啦在线学习网 On the banks of the Xenil the dark Spanish maiden
Comes up with the fruit of the tangled vine laden;
And the Creole of Cuba laughs out to behold
学习啦在线学习网 Through orange-leaves shining the broad spheres of gold;
Yet with dearer delight from his home in the North,
On the fields of his harvest the Yankee looks forth,
Where crook-necks are coiling and yellow fruit shines,
And the sun of September melts down on his vines.
Ah! on Thanksgiving day, when from East and from West,
From North and from South comes the pilgrim and guest;
学习啦在线学习网 When the gray-haired New Englander sees round his board
The old broken links of affection restored;
When the care-wearied man seeks his mother once more,
And the worn matron smiles where the girl smiled before;
学习啦在线学习网 What moistens the lip and what brightens the eye,
What calls back the past, like the rich Pumpkin pie?
学习啦在线学习网 Oh, fruit loved of boyhood! the old days recalling,
When wood-grapes were purpling and brown nuts were falling!
When wild, ugly faces we carved in its skin,
学习啦在线学习网 Glaring out through the dark with a candle within!
When we laughed round the corn-heap, with hearts all in tune,
Our chair a broad pumpkin, - our lantern the moon,
Telling tales of the fairy who travelled like steam
In a pumpkin-shell coach, with two rats for her team!
学习啦在线学习网 Then thanks for thy present! none sweeter or better
E'er smoked from an oven or circled a platter!
学习啦在线学习网 Fairer hands never wrought at a pastry more fine,
学习啦在线学习网 Brighter eyes never watched o'er its baking, than thine!
And the prayer, which my mouth is too full to express,
Swells my heart that thy shadow may never be less,
That the days of thy lot may be lengthened below,
And the fame of thy worth like a pumpkin-vine grow,
学习啦在线学习网 And thy life be as sweet, and its last sunset sky
Golden-tinted and fair as thy own Pumpkin pie!

学习啦在线学习网 The Question of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
学习啦在线学习网 by Barbara Hurd
A teacher at the chalkboard turns
学习啦在线学习网 and imagines pushing desks
together, lowering her body
onto the one whose question
学习啦在线学习网 about character and conflict
学习啦在线学习网 still lingers in his mouth.
Behind a curtain of textbook and chalk,
she shudders thick and shaded
inside Jekyll's bones, spine twisting in the hands
of what she thought she'd turned to ash
by the heat of her good intentions.
She unbuttons the hugeness of his coat,
hears her voice gone dwarfish and husky,
学习啦在线学习网 feels Jekyll's nausea in her mouth,
Hyde's lust grinding in her molars
while stage crews haul away bridges,
学习啦在线学习网 drag in back alleys
and the curtain begins to rise.
学习啦在线学习网 It's moments like this,
学习啦在线学习网 the director gone for coffee,
stage crew caught with their arms full,
when we know what rises in us unbidden
学习啦在线学习网 is woven to us,
more intimate than a lover.

The Red Poppy
by Louise Glück
The great thing
学习啦在线学习网 is not having
学习啦在线学习网 a mind. Feelings:
oh, I have those; they
govern me. I have
a lord in heaven
called the sun, and open
学习啦在线学习网 for him, showing him
the fire of my own heart, fire
like his presence.
学习啦在线学习网 What could such glory be
if not a heart? Oh my brothers and sisters,
were you like me once, long ago,
学习啦在线学习网 before you were human? Did you
学习啦在线学习网 permit yourselves
to open once, who would never
open again? Because in truth
I am speaking now
学习啦在线学习网 the way you do. I speak
because I am shattered

The Republic
by Paul Mariani
学习啦在线学习网 Midnight. For the past three hours
I've raked over Plato's Republic
with my students, all of them John
Jay cops, and now some of us
have come to Rooney's to unwind.
学习啦在线学习网 Boilermakers. Double shots and triples.
学习啦在线学习网 Fitzgerald's still in his undercover
学习啦在线学习网 clothes and giveaway white socks, and two
学习啦在线学习网 lieutenants——Seluzzi in the sharkskin suit
学习啦在线学习网 & D'Ambruzzo in the leather——have just
invited me to catch their fancy (and illegal)
学习啦在线学习网 digs somewhere up in Harlem, when
this cop begins to tell his story:
how he and his partner trailed
this pusher for six weeks before
学习啦在线学习网 they trapped him in a burnt-out
tenement somewhere down in SoHo,
one coming at him up the stairwell,
the other up the fire escape
and through a busted window. But by
学习啦在线学习网 the time they've grabbed him
he's standing over an open window
and he's clean. The partner races down
into the courtyard and begins going
through the garbage until he finds
学习啦在线学习网 what it is he's after: a white bag
学习啦在线学习网 hanging from a junk mimosa like
the Christmas gift it is, and which now
he plants back on the suspect.
学习啦在线学习网 Cross-examined by a lawyer who does his best
to rattle them, he and his partner
学习啦在线学习网 stick by their story, and the charges stick.
学习啦在线学习网 Fitzgerald shrugs. Business as usual.
But the cop goes on. Better to let
the guy go free than under oath
学习啦在线学习网 to have to lie like that.
And suddenly you can hear the heavy
suck of air before Seluzzi, who
学习啦在线学习网 half an hour before was boasting
about being on the take, staggers
to his feet, outraged at what he's heard,
and insists on taking the bastard
学习啦在线学习网 downtown so they can book him.
Which naturally brings to an end
the discussion we've been having,
学习啦在线学习网 and soon each of us is heading
学习啦在线学习网 for an exit, embarrassed by the awkward
light the cop has thrown on things.
Which makes it clearer now to me why
学习啦在线学习网 the State would offer someone like Socrates
a shot of hemlock. And even clearer
why Socrates would want to drink it.
