    Why do you need to rhyme? Pretty cliche.

    rhyming is no more cliche than free verse... it's only 'amateurish' if not done well... as is anything that's written...

    raith... email me and i'll help you with it... i write both rhymed and unrhymed poetry and i mentor many aspiring poets...

    meanwhile, just google for a rhyming dictionary and put the one you like best in your favorites file, so you can get to it easily... even better is to get yourself a good print one... i use 'webter's new world rhyming dictionary' [pb, $11 new... used cheapies available @ amazon] in print and http://www.rhymezone.com/ online...

    love and hugs, maia
