There was an old hero called Ajax
who certainly lived life to the max
His fighting was mythic
His muscles terrythic
From the years he'd spent building haystacks.


Now they're gunning for poor old Brock

A sophisticated person like yourself, Mobs, may perhaps pronounce 'again' to rhyme with 'rain', but most of us plebs pronounce it to rhyme with 'pen' - and the Bard himself used the very same rhyme in Sonnet 79. So as far as I'm concerned, 'friends' is as good a half-rhyme for 'again' as 'strong' is for 'gone' - and as good a rhyme as many others which appear on this thread. <whistles>

What! I am saying in astonishment .....who pronounces rain, ren? surely rain = pain or again or vain ....even if rhyming 'ren' with pen (singular) it does not rhyme with Friends (plural) ...but hey!...no matter we've moved on, have we not.... <wink>
