Details

A sonnet is all that is required. You must be well aware of what sonnets are, grammatically. Sonnets are rhymed, 14-line poems built in strict iambic pentameter.

So-called-sonnets that don't match the typical criteria will be eliminated. Meter may be off at few places, but not much. The Shakespearean sonnet (ababcdcdefefgg) is most welcome. Other forms are also accepted.

THERE ARE NO RUNNERS UP. THERE WILL ONLY BE TOP 4 SONNETS.
