There are a number of none copyrighted classics you can use and your public library should be able to help you with virtual copies for your classes. Hoopla is used in a lot of public libraries for example. Students will have to have a library card though.
Our public libraries are offering free digital library cards to the schools so that kids can check books out on their Chromebooks if they are quarantined or are doing distant learning. You might check into getting those for your students.

Commonlit.org provides access to plenty of poems and short stories by a variety of authors.
