Example of QUATRAIN
                Alone
Have you ever really felt alone, 
In a room crowded, with people 
With the buzz of conversation, 
Ignoring, wanting to decouple?
Have you ever really felt alone,
With someone lying next to you,
And you don't really feel her there,
When you belong to someone new.
Have you ever had to carry on, 
That nothing seems to be amiss
And yet your mind is miles away 
To where your heart still exists.

Example of OTTAVA RIMA
Quickly did the tiger begin his fast run
Over hilly ground you see him fly and leap
The passive prey laying grazing in the sun
Suddenly its life that it wanted to keep
Tiger pounces, quickly getting the job done
The prey collapsing in a really big heap
Tiger sleeps as night takes over from the day
Will we ever see the hunter become prey?

My own example of QUATRAIN :

      With You
Tell me that I have been so right           
Because it seems everlasting                  
When you take me to the sky                
My heart doesn't need a warning       
There is no cold and lonely night        
I hear your symphony singing                 
I hear you sing a lullaby                            
I can't help myself from falling                   
It felt so good holding you tight                 
Don't stop keep me believing                    
That our true love will never die                 
Though don't know where we're going

            In Love
I can't help it when I get lost in your eyes
I can't be strong when I get weak in glance               
But I love the way my spirits rise                                     
Maybe that is the one thing they called romance               
Unknowing, you're taking me the skies                            
We are happy together winning the chance                      
The sound of love is a real tone of voice                          
It's truly directed to us out of choice
