学生花时不太长,

就已看出事不祥:

原来老师是疯魔!

Rhyme: AABBA

A large lady from Corfu,

Wished to travel to Peru.

But Whether buses or trains

Or boarding aeroplanes,

There wasn’t a door she’d get through.

What’s the meaning of this limerick?

Corfu is an island that belongs to Greece.

Peru is a country on the northeast coast of Latin America.

The meaning of this limerick is that there once was a very fat lady, who wanted to travel from Corfu to Peru. But she was so fat that she could not get on any bus, train or aeroplane.

A large lady from Corfu

Wished to travel to Peru.

But whether buses or trains

Or boarding aeroplanes,

There wasn’t a door she’d get through.

肥婆来自科福

想要游玩秘鲁,

无奈车门太小

飞机同样不好,

体肥而把门堵.

Big Big World

?

I’m a big big girl ,

In a big big world.

It’s not a big big thing.

If you leave me,

But I do do feel

That I do do will

miss you much,

miss you much.

*

I can see the first leaves falling .

It’s all so yellow and nice;

It’s so very cold outside

Like the way I’m feeling inside.

*

Outside it’s now raining,

And tears are falling from my eyes.

Why did it have to happen?

Why did it have to end?

*

I have your arms around me,

Wooh like fire.

But when I open my eyes,

You’re gone!

静思

独立寒雪中,

仰望不夜空,

一轮明皎月,

凉悬在苍穹。

我欲托仙子，

捎信广寒宫，

无奈风云起，

月色渐朦胧。

这首小诗作于上世纪八十年代。曾收录于安徽省青年诗集----《青春风采》 作者: 中慧。

　When those red berries come in springtime,

　Flushing on your southland branches,

　Take home an armful, for my sake,

　As a symbol of our love.

1.《A Garden Of Poems》

2.《The Earth Is Painted Green》

3.《1001 Songs and Poems in English》

4.《Poems between The World Wars 》

5.《English Poems Of The Early

Seventeenth Century》

Which type does each collection belong to?

Poems sorted by names

Poems sorted by period of time

Poems sorted by topic

S:Hello. Could you help me, please? I want to read some poems

L: Have you read any poetry before?

S: Yes, we read some at school, but I didn’t like it very much. I want to find something nice.

L: There are some different ways to choose a poem. If you have a favorite writer, you can choose a book with his or her poems, but if you don’t know any names, you’d better start with books that are collections of poems. In such books you usually find poems by different writers. You see here’s a book called A Garden of Poems, or this one, 1001 Songs and poems in English

S: Should I read all those poems?

L: No, don’t worry. What most people do is to go through them until you see a poem that you like. Maybe you like the title, or the topic, or you might like the first or last lines of the poem.

S: I see. What else have you got?

L: Some books bring together the work of writers from a certain period of time. You see, English Poems of the Early Seventeenth Century or Poetry between the World Wars. Other books have poems about a certain topic. The topic can be human feelings, such as humor or love. There is also poetry about nature, you can look for poems about flowers, trees and plants or, about the sea or the countryside. So, what would you like to read?

S: I don’t know, Shakespeare, maybe?

L: I think Shakespeare is a little bit difficult for you. It’ll be easier if you choose something modern. What kind of topic would you like?

S: I like reading about nature.

L: Have a look at this book. It’s called The Earth is Painted Green. If you have any more questions, you can come and ask me.

S: Yes, I’ll do that. Thank you very much for your help.
