How to choose the rhyme

  • Say the line out loud before you choose: the rhyme has to land on the beat where the melody stresses it.
  • Rhymes of 1 syllable (guys, sighs, and lies) close a line hard; those of 2 syllables (surprise and supplies) stretch it and soften it. Match them to what the line is saying.
  • If every perfect rhyme for “eyes” sounds forced, move “eyes” inside the line and end it on another word.
