The Sealey Challenge, Day Five: 40 Sonnets by Don Paterson

Paterson displays great skill with all different sonnet formats, including one I couldn't track down, with a rhyme scheme of abab cdcd ee fgfg. I went to this site, "Every Sonnet" for help. I didn't dive too deep (yet), but it seems like a handy resource. But that's a bit beside the point. The point is that I enjoyed this read very much, and it has inspired me in its own way. It seems that every book I've read for the challenge so far has spoken to me, and encouraged me to try my hand at what the poets are doing.
