In honest simple verse
OVI: 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.
Dnyaneshwaar (1275-1296) was the first to use ovi in literature. (Illustration)

Ninety-eight in the hospital
for six weeks, with pain - a little
bug on her heart valve, but it'll
be cured with a drip.
Most days she's in a jolly mood
smiling, eating, and drinking good
tele, reading get-well cards, food
for thought.
Her network visits round the clock
taking care of laundry, ad hoc
leaving behind, sometimes in shock
cause she forgets we were there.

Ruby, pink gem, or bloody red
My July birthstone, we just met
Made its way from the shelf to bed
- he gave her to me
Lover all potent with a grin
Said “This is only the begin-
ning of a hot affair to win
you over.”
Note ▼ WRITE A POEM INSPIRED BY YOUR BIRTHSTONE.

Some sightings upwards in the sky
Called UFOs, flying way up high
Are real or not? We have to sigh
Thinking of alien life
Grey with big eyes or green from Mars
Learning and watching from the stars
Or are they starting earthly wars
We have to wait and see
Note ▼CELEBRATIONS!
World UFO Day - dedicated to the existence of unidentified flying objects, encouraging you to open your mind, embrace a different perspective and explore the wonders of the UFO phenomenon.

Row the boat, gently down the stream
Party all day, me and my team
Boozing, laughing, eating ice cream
Till dawn sets in
All I remember the boat shook
We all plunged into the cold brook
A passerby watched us and took
Us out of the water
Note ▼Some of the worst places to have a party: a row boat; an elevator or an overpass |
