He probably missed it. Should we PM it to him?

Okay, sent it to him. His was easy...there was an obvious rhyme to begin with.

I was actually going to use "Lawn More." and since the meter falls into place, find a way to use "water their lawn more." Which suggests a joke about an insufficient fence and nude sunbathing.

Last line will be "The neighbors all water their lawn more."

other options include "schlong bore," but I don't like that at all.

A well-endowed lad known as Clonmore
would shower and then not put on more,
then wander outside
in naught but his hide
so the neighbors would water the lawn more.

Eh. It's hard to get three rhymes out of that one. Plus, it's not obvious that they're standing out there with the hose, rather than using a sprinkler. What do you think?

hmmm... I agree.. it's a tough one... I'm not in love with it....

what if you don't use 'clonmore' as the rhyme, just as the subject?

eg: Clonmore was lord of the land
who thought he was more than just grand...

or something...
