A sonnet is a fourteen-line poem that means "little song." Sonnets for Messiah uses three distinct sonnet forms to mold its themes: the Shakespearean, Spenserian, and Petrarchan. Each style displays its own unique rhyming pattern, and they are structured in such a way as to express ideas concisely. It is exactly this conciseness that many readers find most appealing about the sonnet. A well-crafted sonnet can say as much on a subject in fourteen lines as a book of prose can say in fourteen pages
