The Basic Sonnet Forms

We've talked about sonnets before, but this link to sonnets.org is worth checking out for its treatment of all the sonnet forms - Italian, Spenserian, English/Shakespearean, and "Indefinable".  Sometimes it's neat to look at resources where our dear Shakespeare is just one small part of the big picture.  Keeps things in context.  He wasn't the only one writing sonnets, and not every sonnet is written in the form he popularized.
