你見過暴風雨嗎？小朋友又有冇聽過「風聲」、「雷聲」、「雨聲」之間的節奏？
英國詩人 Sara Coleridge 就用《The Storm》一詩，描繪咗一場突如其來嘅風暴，從恐懼到平靜，從混亂到陽光，展現大自然變化之美✨
呢首詩歌充滿節奏感與音效感，非常適合小朋友練習英文詩歌朗讀、學詞彙同理解比喻🌬️💡
📖 詩歌原文
The Storm
by Sara ColeridgeSee lightning is flashing,
The forest is crashing,
The rain will come dashing,
A flood will be rising anon;The heavens are scowling,
The thunder is growling,
The loud winds are howling,
The storm has come suddenly on!But now the sky clears,
The bright sun appears,
Now nobody fears,
But soon every cloud will be gone. ☀️
