However you pron Warren regionally, I can go along. After all, my New England accent has some eccentricities of its own that you have to deal with. So anything within reason will work for the rhyme.

PM your entries to me. I have two from Bob already.

I thought I sent three.

Without giving anything away, can you tell me if you think the first two actually rhyme?

Just Yes, No or Maybe will do. Smile

One of Bob's would rhyme for me and if his others rhyme for him, that's fine with me.

Well I don't know how you folks are managing so many. I can only think of two words rhyming with "Warren" in my dialect, and it's hard enough fitting them into the same limerick!

They don't rhyme for me. They rhyme according to both RhymeZone and Whitfield's University Rhyming Dictionary which are both, of course, American.

The third of mine contains two of the only three possible rhymes to my ear but that would rather limit the scope of the entries.

I'll be interested to see what others come up with because I am struggling with this one. I've submitted one, but I doubt it's a winner.

I"ve got six but from only three people. Where are all the contestants?

Come on people. It's tough but it can be done given enough creativity and stretching of the definition of rhyme. Big Grin
