Can somebody suggest any traditional (possibly simple!) poetry for beginners, something that could be easily learnt by heart, just to help memorization of pronunciation and practicing?
Note that I'm not looking for learning resources that could be somehow "volatile", but for well-known classics in literature.
Maybe there are suitable poets studied by children at primary school...
Thanks!
http://www.3kid.net/ertong/tangshi-sanbaishou.htm has many for you to choose from; here are some examples:
-骆宾王
鹅，鹅，鹅， 曲项向天歌。 白毛浮绿水， 红掌拨清波。
-孟浩然
春眠不觉晓， 处处闻啼鸟。 夜来风雨声， 花落知多少。
-王之涣
白日依山尽， 黄河入海流。 欲穷千里目， 更上一层楼。
李白
危楼高百尺，
手可摘星辰。
不敢高声语，
恐惊天上人。
李白
床前明月光，
疑是地上霜。
举头望明月，
低头思故乡。

Here I answer my own question, summing up the best answers arrived so far, with a basic collection of classical poets. As asked, the goal is not to provide a complete list, but to supply a starting point for beginners.
Beyond the question itself, interested people can find some examples below (I decided to report them so that they can be used as hints for researches on the net). In particular, 李白's 静夜思 seems to be one of the most famous, known by all Chinese speakers since childhood and reported very often around the web.
