Rhymings ...
He lost his leg after it went purple,
(Fell off his horse with an unsecured curple.
Now brand new crutches help with his hirple.
I think you'll find its green not orange
That part of the fern that's called the sporange.
It cost lots of gold and silver
Making Silence of the Chilver.

There was this old bushified Balt
who, greatly inspired by malt,
would think it no crime
to murder the rhyme
in a desperate doggerel assault.

Re: Rhymings ...
The Philistines were highly cultured people, Delilah apparently was.
Though one of my school teachers for some reason, thought that I might have descended from the Visigoths.
On the matter of rhyme Manfred, is it good practice in poetry to have rhyme drawing attention to itself ( known as clanging rhyme ) unless is it intended for comical effect.

Of course I "get it " , I realized that they are not made up.
