    This is a call for the best sonnets. If there's a sonnet you've read or perhaps wrote, that you find exquisite, the height of the craft in its beauty and craftmenship, post a link to it here, so that we may share in its grace, so that we may bath in its beauty and wade in its wonder. What would you recommend as worthwhile sonnet reading??? What is the best P&Q sonnet you've read???

    Since no one else seems to answer this, I will...

    I think Steven Beesley once wrote a very good sonnet, though I do not remember its name.

    All in all, I haven`t read too many sonnets in here...

    I have written some, though, I am a huge fan of sonnets.

    Iambic Pentameter is the most difficult part of writing sonnets to my experience. I don't always meter my sonnets right, and iambic feet aren't always right. I It is a hard thing to master properly, but for those interested in learning and mastering how, check this out:
