A sonnet typically has 14 lines, so if you want to get technical, it usually contains around 140-160 words. But hey, who's counting when you're crafting beautiful poetry? Just make sure you nail those rhymes and rhythms, honey.
There does not appear to be a special name for a 24-line/stanza poem A pantoum is a series of any number four-line quatrains, and can therefore have six verses of 4 lines each, i.e. 24 lines or stanzas in total. A caudate sonnet is a poem that is comprised of a sonnet of 14 lines followed by a coda, which can have 10 lines, thus making a 24-line caudate sonnet. And, of course, there are simply some 24-line poems!See 'Related Links' below
A Shakespearean sonnet is a poem whose verse structure resembles that of most of the short poems in the publication, Shakespeare's Sonnets. In this structure there are 14 lines of iambic pentameter - rhythmic sequences of words usually comprising 10 syllables - arranged in the rhyme scheme: ababcdcdefefgg. The concluding couplet (gg) usually takes the form of a punch-line or summary built from the themes of the preceding lines. The term can also refer to a sonnet composed by Shakespeare (most of which appeared in the above-mentioned publication).
Fourteen lines, all in iambic pentameter (ie primarily composed as 10 syllables in a rhythmic beat: da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da) and set in the following rhyme scheme: ababcdcdefefgg.
A sonnet with 10 syllables in each line is typically referred to as a decasyllabic sonnet. It is a specific form of the sonnet that follows a strict meter and rhyme scheme.

The main idea of Donne's Holy Sonnet 10, also known as "Death Be Not Proud," is that death is not something to be feared or glorified because it is not the end of existence. The poet personifies death as a weak and powerless entity that cannot ultimately claim victory over the soul, which will continue to live on. The sonnet conveys a message of hope and reassurance in the face of mortality.
No, each line of a sonnet does not have to have exactly 10 syllables. While the traditional form of a sonnet, such as the Shakespearean or Petrarchan, often uses lines of iambic pentameter (10 syllables), variations can be found in modern sonnets.
A sonnet is a type of poem that typically consists of 14 lines, usually written in iambic pentameter. There are different forms of sonnets, such as the Shakespearean sonnet or the Petrarchan sonnet, each with its own rhyme scheme. Sonnets often explore themes of love, beauty, nature, or personal emotions.

A sonnet typically consists of 14 lines. The most common meter for a sonnet is iambic pentameter, which means each line has 10 syllables with a stress on every second syllable.
usually 10
Sort of. It's certainly playing with the form of the Italian sonnet. Like the Italian sonnet, "Why Brownlee Left" is broken up into an octave and a sestet. This is Muldoon indicating to us that this should at least recall the sonnet form. However, unlike the sonnet, "Why Brownlee Left" does not follow a rhyme scheme (an Italian sonnet is usually rhymed abbaabba cdecde, and the English sonnet usually ababcdcdefefgg) nor is it written in iambic pentameter (the lines are varying lengths rather than 10 syllables each). Muldoon is not a sloppy writer though; he's making this poem more about Brownlee, but also about the sonnet--this is metafiction in that respect. Just like Brownlee, who left when he had every reason to be content, poets are leaving behind the form of the sonnet (in exchange for the free verse we more typically see today) when they had every reason to be content with the sonnet form. That's one reading of it anyway. So, is this a sonnet? Sort of us. It's either commentary on the tradition of the sonnet, or it is an imperfect sonnet, or more likely it's both.

The rhyme scheme of a Petrarchan Sonnet is abbaabbacdcdcd. In a Petrarchan or Italian Sonnet, the first eight lines are related. Line 9 is called "the turn", signifying a change in rhyme pattern and a change in subject matter. Each line of a sonnet consists of 10 syllables following a pattern of unstressed syllable, stressed syllable (each pair is an "iamb").
A sonnet isn't defined in terms of beats. Its characteristic feature is being 14 lines long. There have been different variants of the 14 lines over the ages, but it started with the Petrarchan sonnet in Italy, and the main variants in English have been the Shakespearean and Miltonic sonnets. The Shakespearean sonnet is written in iambic pentameter (that is, each line has five feet in the order of unstressed-stressed syllables, for a total of 10 syllables per line). Perhaps that's what you're thinking of.
