poetic sounds?
Wonderful theme 
!
As for me, my favourite sound is one of rain, in all the variations. I like rain when its drops patter into the window or into the roof of our country-house, when they rustle in the leaf or tap on an umbrella… I just love rain ! And there’s one song about it written by one of our singer-songwriters, Alexander Dolsky. The lyrics are beautiful and, of course, it would be better not to spoil them by clumsy translation in prose… Ah, I’d still like to post it!
The rains are strumming their sonatas on the keys of wet days. And drainpipes giving out the staccato aren’t inferior to organ in the richness of tones. And for so many years I’ve been waiting for that rainy weather from every November… I’ve been waiting and waiting – but vainly.
Oh, at last! It’s rainy September now. A fresh autumn has come, and clouds are hanging just like skew nets, and the month number eight is finally over.
Although I’m not as naive as was before, I still repeat over and over again, “Wait for the rains!” I cherish indistinct hopes while years pass away as if they were rains. The last one, my blue-eyed hangman, will get much work! And my thousandth rain will be only first cry for someone…
And if a curve of my life would lie on the palm like a way I could look to the future closing my eyes. No, probably, it would be better not to do that… Anyway, I’m at odds with destiny… The results of parades are known, but what will be the end of the battle?

A newer, fresher choice of sound, is that of the blood curdling scream as Avalaughnott is squeezed through the narrow end of an Amazonian Indian's Nose Flute.

"Bipolar is a roller-coaster ride without a seat belt. One day you're flying with the fireworks; for the next month you're being scraped off the trolley" I said that.

After reading your interesting answers I was thinking how it would sound a recording of all those sounds together in armony.
Well after all instruments have been made to reproduce nature sounds that are really nice to listen......(?)
As for the instruments more or less nice to listen to as Pete says it depends on other factors may be as the intermixture, the state of spirit etc.
