They use them because it gives a beat and helps with rythm. I hope this was helpful!
I am not sure which sonnets you are asking about; many poets wrote sonnets, 14 lines of poetry usually about love (whether losing it, longing for it, or being happy to have it). If you are asking about Shakespeare's sonnets, by most accounts, he wrote 154 of them. Without more information from you, I have no way of knowing which sonnet I should explain.

deepen a poets meaning
Most of them, at some time or another.
A Sonnet Cycle is a set of sonnets that usually tell a story (often a love story of some kind). In English the two first sonnet cycles were Philip Sidney's Astrophel to Stella - which tells the story of Astrophel's love for Stella - and Samuel Daniel's Delia, which is very similar. Astrophel and Delia don't have much of a plotline (there is a faint one, if you read carefully), but W S Blunt's Esther has a clear story to tie the sonnets together (it is probably a heavily fictionalised account of his affair with Catherine Skittles Walters). A group of sonnets which share a common theme, but don't tell a story, is often called a Crown of Sonnets. If the unifying factor is a story of some kind, Sonnet Cycle is the preferred term. But many critics use Crown of Sonnets and Sonnet Cycle interchangeably (and few contemporary poets write either).

many poets write them, though they may interpret the form loosely
Poets write sonnets for their structured form, which typically consists of 14 lines and a specific rhyme scheme. This structure allows poets to convey complex emotions and ideas in a concise, impactful way. Additionally, the challenge of adhering to the strict rules of a sonnet can inspire creativity and ingenuity in poetic expression.
There are many many European poets who have written sonnets of religious devotion. Probably the two most important in English are John Donne (with his Holy Sonnets) and G M Hopkins with his Terrible Sonnets (including 'I wake and feel the fell of dark, not day). See the related link for further information.

Three major sonnets written by romantic poets are: 1.Percy Bysshe Shelley-"Ozymandias" 2.John Keats-"When I have fears" 3.William Wordsworth-"Upon Westminster bridge"
Sonnets are unnatural to the point that they rarely appear in everyday life. They usually only exist in written works, like plays and poems. Shakespeare's work contains numerous sonnets, so Shakespearean plays would be the commonest place to encounter them. Alternatively, sonnets have regained popularity among some modern poets, such as Robert Frost.
