蝴蝶的英文诗

下面是几首比较著名的关于蝴蝶的英文诗

1

The butterfly obtains

by Emily Dickinson

The butterfly obtains

But little sympathy

Though favorably mentioned

In Entomology --

Because he travels freely

And wears a proper coat

The circumspect are certain

That he is dissolute --

Had he the homely scutcheon

Of modest Industry

'Twere fitter certifying

For Immortality --

Some such Butterfly be seen

by Emily Dickinson

Some such Butterfly be seen

On Brazilian Pampas --

Just at noon -- no later -- Sweet --

Then -- the License closes --

Some such Spice -- express and pass --

Subject to Your Plucking --

As the Stars -- You knew last Night --

Foreigners -- This Morning --

Blue-Butterfly Day

by Robert Frost

It is blue-butterfly day here in spring,

And with these sky-flakes down in flurry on flurry

There is more unmixed color on the wing

Than flowers will show for days unless they hurry

But these are flowers that fly and all but sing:

And now from having ridden out desire

They lie closed over in the wind and cling

Where wheels have freshly sliced the April mire

Butterfly

by David Herbert Lawrence

Butterfly, the wind blows sea-ward,

strong beyond the garden-wall!

Butterfly, why do you settle on my

shoe, and sip the dirt on my shoe,

Lifting your veined wings, lifting them

big white butterfly!

Already it is October, and the wind

blows strong to the sea

from the hills where snow must have

fallen, the wind is polished with snow

Here in the garden, with red

geraniums, it is warm, it is warm

but the wind blows strong to sea-ward,

white butterfly, content on my shoe!

Will you go, will you go from my warm house

Will you climb on your big soft wings, black-dotted,

as up an invisible rainbow, an arch

till the wind slides you sheer from the arch-crest

and in a strange level fluttering you go out to sea-ward, white speck!

butterfly [ˈbʌtəflai]

n蝴蝶 (拉丁文: Rhopalocera; 英文: Butterflies)

蝶，通称为“蝴蝶”，全世界大约有14000余种，大部分分布在美洲，尤其在亚马逊河流域品种最多，在世界其他地区除了南北极寒冷地带以外，都有分布，在亚洲，台湾也以蝴蝶品种繁多著名。蝴蝶一般色彩鲜艳，翅膀和身体有各种花斑，头部有一对棒状或锤状触角（这是和蛾类的主要区别，蛾的触角形状多样）。最大的蝴蝶展翅可达24厘米，最小的只有16厘米。大型蝴蝶非常引人注意，专门有人收集各种蝴蝶标本，在美洲“观蝶”迁徙和“观鸟”一样，成为一种的活动，吸引许多人参加。有许多种类的蝴蝶是农业和果木的主要害虫。
