 What Rhymes with Orange? January 18, 2009

Does anything rhyme with orange? I know, because I purchased the Merriam-Webster's Rhyming Dictionary at Amazon.com. Invaluable for poets. Amazing the effort that must have gone into compiling all these rhyming words. Shipped very quickly and arrived as promised in new condition.
I took a look at this book and I'm hooked! December 13, 2008

I wanted to rhyme, to be an MC
But my mind was slow and my tongue lazy
When I'd try to rap everyone would flee
Then I got this book, now b*+©!es go crazy
Cause now I got rhythm and I've got groove
Whenever I speak people bust a move
I'm about to put Slim Shady to shame
I'll be the white rapper with all the fame
See my name is Sir Ian, yes I'm a knight
I don't use swords, in rap battles I fight
And I can spit rhymes till the early light
Sir Justin lays the beat his s!*+ is tight
Together we make an almighty team
On the rap battlefield we reign supreme
Cause I'm mean and this s!*+ flows like a stream
Like a dirty nasty funky freaky f#©+ed up wet dream
Let me take a moment to thank someone
Without him we wouldn't be havin' fun
An English language entrepreneur
Everyone give it up for my man Webster
Now I know this is text, but your feelin' it
And I'm so sorry I'm about to quit
You're gonna miss all this wit I transmit
But now is the time when I click submit!

You need this if you are a poet, a songwriter, or a Hobbit.
I bought my lemon thyme at some nickel-and-dime in Anaheim!
Okay, I might not be the next Robert Frost or Bob Dylan, but
I feel like I'm moving in the right direction.
 Okay at Best. Here are a couple better options. July 30, 2007

I find this one is basic and limited. You can only find rhymes based on sounds. A good rhyming dictionary should cross-reference both sound and spelling.
I couldn't easily find a rhyme for the word "exit".
I would recommend the Penguin or the fully executed Oxford. The Penguin is a good one for a backpack or travel or carrying a lot. The Oxford is excellent as a stationary at home or at work because it is hard cover.

A fun and informative reference book for everyone in your family to use. I had no idea a book like this even existed until Amazon.com recommended this book to me after I had purchased other reference books from their internet store. I thought this was only going to be used from time to time when someone needed to write a poem for school or to be silly but that certainly isn't true at all. Since purchasing this book I know I have used this book several times for writing a serious love letter to my loving wife to writing something funny in emails to friends. I have found this reference book more handy than I first thought and I am very pleased to have this book in my private library. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who has children, anyone who loves to write, anyone who enjoys surprising their significant-other with a special poem, anyone who enjoys writing music or anyone who has a silly heart who enjoys writing for the sake of writing !!!
