Do you already have a theme for your research paper? That might help people in making suggestions. Or if you don't, say so, and maybe someone can offer one. Or, best suggestion, you could grab and read one of his books yourself and find a theme that you like.

well, the best piece of advice I can give you is that if you spell his name with capital letters in a paper, the ghost of ee Cummings haunts you in verse. Avoid at all costs.

All I know of cummings is what I've read in anthologies. I love his "anyone lived in a pretty how town", which actually makes me tear up every time I read it. His grasshopper and l(a are often anthologized for their inventive use of form, almost like concrete poems.

His major poems fill a rather thin volume. After two hours of reading you can finish most anthologies. Choose one and then read it.

thank you very much for your opinions,now I come up with my research paper theme:

Symbolism and imagery play an important role in literary texts. Discuss

I expect some poems that can be analaized under this topic.
