Red Green once said, “Poems don’t have to rhyme and they don’t have to be dirty, but people prefer them that way.”
Here are some resources that should help you finish that Lady From Nantucket limerick:
First of all, I should mention the Free McGill English Dictionary of Rhyme 2.0
Here is the introduction:
American poet, Bryant H. McGill, has announced the release of a software rhyming dictionary derived from his award-winning McGill English Dictionary of Rhyme, which is used by over one hundred thousand writers, educators, students, aspiring poets, and songwriters from more than 100 countries, and stands as the world’s most extensive rhyming reference ever created in the history of the English language.
This essential reference, dedicated by McGill to “fellow poets everywhere,” is perfect for poets, songwriters, lyricists, copywriters, advertising agencies, pathologists, speechwriters, advertisers, teachers, students, researchers, linguists, writers, or anyone who enjoys rhyming words. The electronic reference software can even be run from a portable USB thumb/jump drive, which may be carried in the user’s pocket, making this reference perfect for students and those on the go
Features:

This software is DEFINITELY worth a look, you can download it here: www.bryantmcgill.com/Free_Rhyming_Dictionary/
If you don’t feel like installing software, here are some good online rhyming dictionaries:
