Ovi (ovee): an ancient Indian form of narrative poetry consisting of four-line stanzas with the first three lines rhyming and having eight syllables each. The fourth line does not rhyme and contains less than eight syllables.

Clouds angry and black rolling in.
Raindrops certain to start again.
Lightning flashes, thunder begins.
Another stormy night.

Drops of rain pitter and patter,
Then arrive with such a clatter,
It’s the only sound that matters;
Silencing all else.

Left in its wake the faint drip drop
Of spent rain that will slowly stop
In its descent from my rooftop
Forming puddles below.
