Is it correct to say" the poems of Shakespeare "?
Actually, I think we must say Shakespeare's poems, but I've seen that phrase which I mentioned. Is that wrong?

They are both fine -- it's a free choice. You can use the genitive (possessive) construction in Shakespeare's poems or the non-genitive the poems of Shakepeare.
