    My honest answer is probably The Raven, but I’ll post something less well known.

    Gray Room

    by Wallace Stevens

    Although you sit in a room that is gray,

    Except for the silver

    Of the straw-paper,

    And pick

    At your pale white gown;

    Or lift one of the green beads

    Of your necklace,

    To let it fall;

    Or gaze at your green fan

    Printed with the red branches of a red willow;

    Or, with one finger,

    Move the leaf in the bowl–

    The leaf that has fallen from the branches of the forsythia

    Beside you…

    What is all this?

    I know how furiously your heart is beating.
