I almost promised you a poem yesterday, but I couldn't be arsed to write one.  I did, however, formulate this limerick / tongue twister:

Mr Country Bumpkin humped his sister's pumpkin.

There's even a cleaner version, for children:

Mr Country Bumpkin kissed his sister's pumpkin.

Aren't I thoughtful?  I hope you appreciate that, because I lost a whole night's sleep with that phrase going through my head - perfecting its poetic value.

I remember my year 9 form teacher suggesting a rhyme for 'purple':  A fart won't do it but a burp'll.
I can't think of one for 'orange' though...Is there a rhyme for 'silver' either?
