There was this little hobbit lass
She ever had a tricksy time
For all she really wanted done
Was just to write a little rhyme
But trouble came to call on her
When thinking of some special words
She tried and tried and tried again
But nothing ever rhymed with ... orange!
For orange is an awkward word
It's quite distinct, it must be said
For other colours seem to rhyme
Like green and blue and white and red
And even pink, which rhymes with sink
It's not like yellow (rhymes with bellow)
The hobbit lass soon felt despair
For nothing ever rhymed with ... orange!
But wait, the lass then hatched a plan
To pen instead a dancing song
With simple words and melody
So everyone could sing along
The song would be entitled "Orange"
And all the lines would end with orange
And everyone would sing out orange!
For only orange rhymes with orange
