No Rhyme or Reason

 No Rhyme or Reason

The only word that rhymes with “silver”

Is the one for ewe lamb, known as a “chilver.”

The only partner in rhyme with “orange”

Is a sac on a plant with spores, a “sporange.”

Even lonelier a word as far as rhyme goes

Is the rhymeless “angel” from the Greek “angelos.”

A month of Sundays you would look

For a rhymer for “month”, a word poets forsook.

To rhyme those words, no need to flinch.

Simply coin a rhymer to help in a pinch.

To rhyme a word, for example, with silver,

For a silver Cadillac, call it a “Cadilver.”

For the fruit or color known as an orange,

An orange porridge would be named a “porrange.”

If you were in danger, would you call a stranger?

No, you’d ring-up a “dangel,” an angel in danger.

Finally, if you are having a not-good month,

Why not just chalk it off as a “schmonth.”

If this poem of sorts is sounding like Seuss,

You’re right, it’s being a bit verbaloose.
