A Red,Red Rose Burns is telling us what the epitome of love is to him.The similes he uses are meant to show us the grandness of love.He compares his love to a rose and to a melody,showing us that love is beautiful and precious.Burns also shows us how love is not fleeting;that if it really is love,it will always be there no matter how near or far the two people may be from each other.Summary:while stanza 1 is an introduction about her beauty,the next 3 describe his love for her from 3 dimensions:depth,length,and distanceFormat(格式):four quatrains(four-line stanzas)with the following characteristics Rhyme(韵脚):In each stanza,the second and fourth lines end with masculine rhyme(阳韵),Rhyme also occurs in a repeated word at the end of the first and third lines of the third and fourth stanzas.Meter(韵律)iambic tetrameter(四音步抑扬格）in lines 1&3iambic Trimeter(三音步抑扬格)in lines 2&4“A Red,Red Rose”begins with a quatrain containing two similes.Burns compares his love with a springtime blooming rose and then with a sweet melody.These are popular poetic images and this is the stanza most commonly quoted from the poem.The second and third stanzas become increasingly complex,ending with the metaphor of the“sands of life,”or hourglass.One the one hand we are given the image of his love lasting until the seas run dry and the rocks melt with the sun,wonderfully poetic images.On the other hand Burns reminds us of the passage of time and the changes that result.That recalls the first stanza and its image of a red rose,newly sprung in June,which we know from experience will change and decay with time.These are complex and competing images,typical of the more mature Robert Burns.The final stanza wraps up the poems complexity with a farewell and a promise of return.“A Red,Red Rose”is written as a ballad with four stanzas of four lines each.Each stanza has alternating lines of four beats,or iambs,and three beats.The first and third lines have four iambs,consisting of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable,as in da-dah,da-dah,da-dah,da-dah.The second and fourth lines consist of three iambs.This form of verse is well adapted for singing or recitation and originated in the days when poetry existed in verbal rather than written form.呵，我的爱人象朵红红的玫瑰，六月里迎风初开；呵，我的爱人象支甜甜的曲子，奏得合拍又和谐。我的好姑娘，多么美丽的人儿！请看我，多么深挚的爱情！亲爱的，我永远爱你，纵使大海干涸水流尽。我的爱人象朵红红的玫瑰 王佐良

simple and normal anymore.The red,red rose in this poem is actually natural and it easily touches your heart.The poem reads and sings rhythmically.When we are reading it,we can feel its delicious rhymes which may remind you of your love.The words chose by the poet are plain,butthe emotion which is expressed by the whole poem is strong and sincere.Thank you!
