Two roads diverged in a wood, and I – I took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.
－Robert Frost
一片树林里分出两条路, 而我选了人迹更少的一条, 从此决定了我一生的道路。
——罗伯特·弗罗斯特
“two roads” in the poem do not mean actual roads in the woods, but two choices in the poet’s life. He feels he has made a different and decisive choice.
Chinese poem V.S English version
Thoughts on a Silent Night
Translated by Xuan Yuanchong
Before my bed a pool of night —
Can it be hoarfrost on the ground
Eyes raised, I see the moon so bright;
Head bent, in homesickness I’m drowned.
How long will the bright moon appear Wine-cup in hand, I ask
the sky.
I do not know what time of year,
It would be tonight in the palace
on high.
水调歌头 —— 苏轼
明月几时有？把酒问青天。
不知天上宫阙，今夕是何年？
No water is comparable to the green sea;
No cloud to the clouds of Mt Wu.
No woman is worthy of my backward glance;
Partly due to ascetic practice, partly you.
-------By Yuan Zhen

GRIEF OF SEPARTATION
The girl is lovely and slenderly tall,
whom the gentleman would adore.
窈窕淑女，君子好逑。
Men have sorrow and joy; they part or meet again;
The moon is bright or dim and she may wax or wane.
人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺。
Chinese poem V.S English version
I seek but seek in vain, I search and search again;
I feel so sad , so drear, so lonely, without cheer.
Chinese poem V.S English version
A thousand times I search for her in the crowd
And, suddenly turning my head,
Discover her where the lantern lights are dim.
I seek but seek in vain, I search and search again;
I feel so sad , so drear, so lonely, without cheer.
Chinese poem V.S English version
A thousand times I search for her in the crowd
And, suddenly turning my head,
Discover her where the lantern lights are dim.
If winter comes,
can spring be far behind
Shelley(雪莱)--- Ode to the West Wind
(西风颂)
How many loved your moments of glad grace
And loved your beauty with love false or true
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you
And loved the sorrows of your changing face
Yeats(叶芝) ---- When You Are Old

Compared with other forms of literature such as the novel, drama, and the short story, what are the characteristics of
poetry
Compared to other forms of literature, poetry tends to be shorter though a poem can be very long. Words are used differently, not in sentences and paragraphs like in novels, but lines and stanzas. Often grammar and punctuation are ignored or used differently. Poetry is more emotional, and the possibilities are much more open than in prose.
