Italian Poems...?

Question

I am looking for a website where i can read famous poems by italian poets. There was a saying my grandmother use to say to me when i was a child and i can't rember it but if i were to see it i know i would know it. Does anyone know any good sites where i can actually read the poems instead of learning aobut the author?

Answer 1

Then you're looking for Italian sayings / proverbs and not for poems....!!! However it's a difficult research if you don't have any idea of its wording. There are millions of verses of Italian poems and even sayings are really a lot. If you're able to remember at least how yr grandmother's saying was roughly
"sounding" you could email me and I'll try to help you.
In any case I'm giving below a few links to Italian proverbs webpages but I guess you must know Italian to surf on them :
