Rhyming word sets

When preparing for writing a poem, its a good idea to write a word bank, (see previous post).

Once you have written out your word bank, you need to arrange it into rhyming word sets.

I'll use my dolphin poem (Previous post) as an example:

seen -being
waves -plays
clouds -down
see -free
fish -wish
entertain -terrain

Here is a web page you can look at for an example of word set on another poem - http://wordsahead.wordpress.com/laura-bushs-bedtime-lap-time-favorites/long-haired-boy-shel-silverstein/
