So I was thinking about words. And how they rhyme. And how weird it is that you can take a long complicated (relatively) word such as adolescent and there are absolutely loads of words that rhyme with it (I found 15), yet for a simple little word like purple there are none to be found.
And from that this limerick was born. (And two others which are really bad because I was just cramming in words rhyming with adolsecent).
Enjoy!

There once was a young adolescent
Who went by the name of Rubescent
The shadows she’d shun
For the shine of the sun
And the glow of the stars luminescent
Wow! What a way to turn a long diffucult-rhyming word into such a cool poem!
