Hello /lit/

I am composer and I like to set poetry to music in the classical tradition. I am often stymied in this endeavor by a lack of poetry to draw from. I was wondering if you could help with your vast knowledge of literature by referring me to poems and poets that you think would be best. Contemporary is better. Onegai shimasu.
