Rhymes follow sound, not spelling

Light and night rhyme because their endings sound alike. Through and blue also rhyme, even though they look different. This finder uses North American English pronunciations from the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary. Some names, slang, and regional pronunciations will be missing.

Turn a rhyme into a line

Pick two words from the same family. Put one at the end of each bar, and say it on the final beat. The words give your verse a shape while you improvise everything before them.
