Rhymes with . . .



I bought a house on Blorenge--
That’s a well-known hill in Wales--
’Cause I need a rhyme for “orange,”
And I’m sick of rhyming fails!

In a little pen outside
You’ll find a darling little chilver.
Oh, she’s fluffy and wide-eyed 
And--even better--rhymes with “silver”!

I stay there each December--
It’s my favorite of the months!
Just two weeks, and please remember,
That is fourteen thirty-oneths!

Yet, despite my plans and scheming,
I can’t find a rhyme for “purple”!
And the bitter tears come streaming--
Oh, I feel like such a “curple”!

  1. Oh, don't feel like a "curple". Your made-up rhyming words are better than most people's real ones.
