西城男孩可以说是最受欢迎的男孩和声团体之一了。他们所取得的成就，也是令人刮目相看。西城男孩是英国流行音乐史上唯一三次赢得年度专辑殊荣的音乐团体。他们在全球的专辑销量超过了三千四百万张，单单是在英国，便已经荣获五张超白金唱片。他们也在英国创造了12首冠军单曲的音乐历史纪录，并且共获得两座全英音乐奖、一座MTV欧洲音乐大奖、以及六项爱尔兰音乐大奖(连续四年荣获最佳流行艺人大奖)！西城男孩同时也因为一首现场版的“为爱而飞(Flying Without Wings)”，获得首个网络下载榜的冠军头衔。除了

又是一年母亲节,
又是康乃馨张开笑脸的时候,
每到母亲节来临的时候,我会给妈妈献上一束幸福的康乃馨.
妈妈是世界最伟大的,
"妈妈"我会亲亲地呼唤着您.
妈妈的心是金色的,
因为她每天都带着幸福的笑脸.
当我生活遇到困难的时候,
妈妈会帮助我想办法;
当我学习遇到困难的时候,
妈妈会说:"不要灰心,要努力."
妈妈的眼睛是明亮的,
我做错了事她马上会知道,
妈妈的眼睛像窗户,
我只要推开窗户就能张大.
随着岁月的流逝,
我渐渐长大了,
妈妈也渐渐苍老了,
就像蜡烛一样渐渐熔化,把所有的光和热给予了我.
我把这一切的一切牢牢记在心里,
我应怎样回报他她呢
母亲啊

When we two parted
In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this!

Many lifetimes ago
We raced through the universe
Like two shooting stars
Without a home
Never burning out
Never growing old
Our love was strong.
We invented love

Poetry is not simply something you learn at school and forget a few months later. It can be fun, evocative, and exciting to read. Besides, quoting a few lines from a poem at a party will make people think you're terribly sophisticated!

威廉·布莱克是十九世纪英国浪漫派诗人，主要诗作有诗集《天真之歌》、《经验之歌》等。 早期作品简洁明快，中后期作品趋向玄妙晦涩，充满神秘色彩。本诗选自《天真之歌》。
　　春天来了，万物复苏。这表现在动物的活动上：鸟儿欢腾，公鸡鸣叫，云雀在天上翻飞，夜莺在山谷间歌唱；也表现在孩子们的活动上：欢蹦乱跳，笑语喧哗，跟小动物一块儿玩耍。
　　这首诗的三节像三个变焦电影镜头：由远而近依次是山谷树林、村庄农舍，然后聚焦在一个与羊羔相戏的儿童身上。意象鲜明、具体、生动，趣味盎然

A friend is, as it were, a second self.
There is a friend that sticks closer than a brother.
In prosperity, our friends know us; in adversity（危难时）, we know our friends.
A friend is a gift, whose worth cannot be measure

With best wishes for a happy birthday.
Each birthday is a milestone we touch along life's way.
May every special happiness fill this day for you and may the year bring everything you look forward to.

英诗节奏(Rhythm)
　　构成英诗节奏的基础是韵律(metre)。在希腊语中，"metre"这个字是"尺度(标谁)"的意思。英诗就是根据诗行中的音节和重读节奏作为"尺度(标准)"来计算韵律的。
　　英诗的特点之一是与其他文体不同的排列格式。各诗行不达到每页页边，每行开始词首大写。几行成为一节(stanza)，不分段落。各行都要讲究一定的音节数量，行末押韵或不押韵，交错排列。
　　……音节重读(stressed)，非重读(unstressed)。....

Some give up and some always try
Some say hi while some say bye
Others may forget you but never I...
If kisses were water,
I will give you sea.
If hugs were leaves,

There are gains for all our losses.
There are balms for all our pain;
But when youth, the dream, departs
It takes something from our hearts,

　　沁园春·雪　　1936.02
　　北国风光，千里冰封，万里雪飘。
　　望长城内外，惟馀莽莽；大河上下，顿失滔滔。
　　山舞银蛇，原驰蜡象，欲与天公试比高。
　　须晴日，看红妆素裹，分外妖娆。
　　江山如此多娇，
　　引无数英雄竞折腰。
　　惜秦皇汉武，略输文采；唐宗宋祖，稍逊风骚。
　　一代天骄，成吉思汗，只识弯弓射大雕。

To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild fllower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
