Try "The Lady of Shalott," by Tennyson.
Fairly long, and a very good poem.

"Kubla Khan" - Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Or "Lochinvar" - Sir Walter Scott

Here's one of my favorite poems:
"i carry your heart with me" by e.e. cummings
By the way, e.e. cummings NEVER capitalizes his name. He only capitalizes a word in his poems if they are extremely important.

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

What about making your own... Impress them.. or does it have to be one of someone's else's..
