Subject:needs suggestions of simple poems

We are going to hold an Arabic declamation contest, with students  
reciting a poem or passage of their choice. Can anyone recommend any  
very simple poems, preferably ones that they have successfully used  
with beginners? There are plenty of Nizar Qabbani poems that are  
suitable, but what about other famous poets? I recall reading a very  
simple poem by Ilyaa Abu Madi while at university, but I have not  
been able to trace it. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Regards,
Haroon
