The Most Popular Poems of All Time, According to the Hypertexts

I am currently trying to select poems to learn by heart. I found this list compiled by The HyperTexts, an on-line poetry journal.

I did not include the following poems because they are very long and I wanted to restrict this list to those that could be committed to memory:
"Paradise Lost" by John Milton
"The Divine Comedy" by Dante Alighieri
"The Odyssey" by Homer
"The Iliad" by Homer
"The Faerie Queene" by Edmund Spenser
"Howl" by Allen Ginsberg
"Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman
"The Ballad of Reading Gaol" by Oscar Wilde
