What Is a Sonnet?

A sonnet is a 14-line poem, traditionally written in iambic pentameter, following one of several fixed rhyme schemes. The two most famous forms are the Shakespearean (English) sonnet and the Petrarchan (Italian) sonnet, each with its own structure and turn of thought.

Shakespearean — three quatrains and a final couplet, rhyme scheme ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.
Petrarchan — an octave and a sestet, rhyme scheme ABBAABBA CDECDE (or similar).
Spenserian — an interlocking rhyme scheme ABAB BCBC CDCD EE, blending both traditions.
