Sonnets which are written in English are always written in iambic pentameter. Sonnets in other languages, not necessarily (e.g. El Desdichado by Gérard de Nerval).
Some of the names of Shakespeare's sonnets are The Fair Young Man, The Rival Poet, and The Dark Lady. All of these sonnets are also numbered off so, though they are all about the same thing, they are numbered in roman numerals.
All sonnets are poems.
Shakespeare didn't publish any sonnets. He wrote 154 sonnets which were all published during his lifetime but they were never published by him. Two of them were published in a volume called The Passionate Pilgrim by Isaac Jaggard in 1599. All 154 were published in a volume called "Shake-speare's Sonnets" in 1609 by one Thomas Thorpe.
William Shakespeare wrote all the plays and sonnets, they have been saying that bard wrote them but William shakespeare fact wrote all of them.

They all have 14 lines. :) -Apex-
William Shakespeare is best known for his sonnets. Shakespeare published a total of 154 sonnets. Sonnets contain fourteen lines with a specific rhyme scheme.
Yes, all sonnets are.
His poems are generally known by numbers, and also are known as sonnets in almost all cases. I needn't write out five sonnets for there are all, or at least most of his sonnets already listed on the William Shakespeare front page, on Wikipedia. There are also plenty of smaller websites with all his sonnets, and some with explanations. I hope this is of help.
Shakespeare's plays still live because people keep on performing them all the time and all over the planet. His sonnets get anthologized and read all the time too. Shakespeare's plays and sonnets are often a part of school literature curricula and why not? Even the internet helps. Do you know how many websites there are about Shakespeare? How many videos of people saying speeches from the plays? Or reading the sonnets? It boggles the mind.
They all have the form abab.
Shakespeare's sonnets differ from other sonnets in the rhyme scheme. Other sonnets have similar rhythms and all have fourteen lines. Shakespeare's are organized into three quatrains and a couplet along the lines of ABAB CDCD EFEF GG
