Honorable mention: A Passenger

These four were clearly above the rest for me. Hard to decide on three.

Thanks and kudos to all the poets for a fine and varied group of sonnets; to the Secret Guest (whoever he/she/they may be) for the interesting and varied choices and excellent commentary; and to Alex for organizing this--and providing the forum for it!

And a tip of the cap to Tim Murphy, who organized the first several of these, and so got rolling what has turned into quite an annual tradition.

2 & 3 are the best of the also-rans. Passenger is the stand-out.
