Sonnet 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm‘d;
我怎么能够将你比作夏天?
你比夏天更美丽温婉。
狂风将五月的蓓蕾凋残,
夏日的勾留何其短暂。
休恋那丽日当空,
转眼会云雾迷蒙;
---Shakespeare
Eyes are raining for her, heart is holding umbrella for her, this is love.
Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death like autumn leaves.
The most distant way in the world
is not the way from birth to the end.
it is when I sit near you
that you don't understand I love you.
---Tagore

"I loved you..."
I loved you, and I probably still do,
And for a while the feeling may remain...
But let my love no longer trouble you,
I do not wish to cause you any pain.
I loved you; and the hopelessness I knew,
The jealousy, the shyness - though in vain
Made up a love so tender and so true
As may God grant you to be loved again.
---Pushkin
If I should see you,
after long year.
How should I greet,
with tears ,with silence.
---George Gordon Byron, (1788—1824)
---Shelley
Ode to the west wind
If Winter comes,

O 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 run.
And 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.

读过一遍就终身难忘的短诗
I love three things,
the sun, the moon, and you,
the sun for the day,
the moon for the night,
and you,
forever
One student’s creative work
I love three things for my meals
Bacon and eggs for breakfast
Sashimi and sushi for lunch
And you for dinner
For looking at you I am full
Oh no, not that I am fool
Looking at you
I am not hungry any more
Now it’s your job: I love three things
Now it’s your show: I love three things….
What is a poem
A poem is what you feel deep in your heart
A poem is what you see when you wake up
A poem is what you think looking at the sky
A poem is what you can’t say but goodbye
A poem is butterflies making noise when you’re alone
A poem is music echoing soft when rain pouring down
A poem is voice of your soul and reinless freedom
A poem is thoughts beyond limits and beauty beyond fantasy
A poem is your love, of the world, of life, of dreams you fancy
John Keats, a Romantic poet, his famous work is Ode to a Nightingale.(夜莺颂)
