A Red Red RoseO my Luve's like a red red rose That's newly sprung in June : O my Luve's like the melodie That's sweetly play'd in tune As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in luve am I And I will luve thee still, my dear , Till a'the seas gang dry:Till a' the seas gang dry , my dear , And the rocks melt wi‘ the sun ; I will luve thee still ,my dear, While the sands o'life shall runAnd fare thee weel , my only luve, And fare thee weel a while ! And I will come again , my Luve , Tho'it were ten thousand mile----by Robert Burnsluve

A poem written in 7 steps
Cao Zhi
They were boiling beans on a beanstalk fire,
Came a plaintive voice from the pot,
“O, why since we sprang from the self-same root,
Should you kill me with anger hot?”
七步诗
曹植
煮豆燃豆萁,
豆在釜中泣。
本是同根生,
相煎何太急。
Thoughts in the Quiet Night(Nostalgia) Beside my bed is bright moonlight,
Is it frost on the ground? I lift up my eyes and see the moon, I bend my head and think of home. 静夜思
床前明月光,
疑是地上霜;
举头望明月,
低头思故乡。Assignment:to write your own poem to learn a poem with your partnersthe background of the poetthe contents of the poem
