Is anyone good at rhyming and/or poetry? I have to write a rhyming poem about the color green. I have a long list I made about green things, here it is.... trees, leaves, grass, clovers, nature, forests, eyes, apples, pistachios, spinach, seaweed, broccoli, ivy, mint, crocodile, lizards, iguana, hulk, geico insurance, money, frogs, pears, grapes, unripe bananas, moss, seahawks, starbucks mermaid symbol, guacamole, emerald, avocado, St. Patrick' day. The only problem is none of those things rhyme. Also, I have to read it aloud to 8th graders, so it should be funny. please help! :)
