You seem to being having problems following directions, boson. If this isn’t intentional, but rather a lack of understanding as to what constitutes a rhyme, [here is a site](https://wikirhymer.com/) that lists lots of rhymes for lots of words. Just enter the word you want a rhyme for and pick a rhyme word from the pure rhymes section. It’s so simple that even I can do it. I had a better Outcome when I followed the Rules to the letter. ---
