THE ONLINE POETRY ARCHIVE – Do you have a half-remembered piece of poetry that you'd love to track down? Chances are you'll find it right here! Search this vast database of poems, poets, lyrics and quotes and delve into well over one million entries.
As well as searching by entering a line or a few words, you can search under poets, or under dozens of categories, such as friend, money, paris, laughter, or butterfly. Start on one of these categories and narrow it down.
For quotes, you can search by word or phrase, or again under categories, or under specific poets. Safe to say, I think, that if you can't find it here you'll never find it. Er ... are you sure you didn't just dream it?
