Look around you and choose something you see. If youre inside, you can choose your little brother, the kitchen, or something in your bedroom. If youre outside, you can probably see trees, plants, and insects. 2. Make the last words rhyme. Two words rhyme when they end with the same sound. To find a rhyming word, say the word to yourself. Then add new sounds at the beginning of the word. Think about each letter of the alphabet. Not all lines have to rhyme. You can rhyme the last word of every other line. 3 Make it funny. You can use funny words or opposites. You can exaggerate, or you can write a surprise ending. 42° Units Read Here is a funny poem about insects.
