The poem is by John Crowe Ransom. I agree that it is not easily accessible online, nor it is one of the more commonly anthologized of his poems. Ransom was the author of three books of poems: "Poems about God", "Chills and Fever" and "Two Gentlemen in Bonds."
There are a good number of critical articles on Ransom's work which you can access at eNotes via the link below.

Actually sonnet is a kind of lyric ,having fourteen lines iambic penta meter.
What is iambic penta metre?
Iambic or iambe is a basic meter that consists of one un stress syllable and other stress syllable(xi).
Penta means five.Each metre has two syllables that`swhy it has ten syllables:
XI/XI/XI/XI/XI
The sonnet is divided into two portions---- Octave and Sestet.
Octive means eight lines and it is further divided into quartain---two quartain rhymed abab,abab/abba,abba:

The remaining part has six lines means sestet.The sestet is divided into two parts that is called tri metre.It is rhymed cde/cde/cdcd ee:

In octave the poet describes about subject and proceeds it where as in sestet the poet describes the solution of it.
