The folks of Apolyton write
Bad limericks by day and night.
They really are bad:
No rhymes to be had.
God, what a horrible sight!

Lincoln talks 'bout evolution,
And Floyd about the constitution.
They post all the time,
But they're post counts don't climb.
On-topic should be the solution.

Old mother hubbard
went to the cupboard
to give her poor doggy a bone
When mother hubbard bent over
Rover came over
and gave her a bone of his own!

Whoops! That last line should be...
and Lung got Ming-banned alone!!

Let me tell you of man named Provost.
A good man and gracious host.
But of women, must be said
He never got laid
He just couldn't afford their cost.

There once was a poster with beer,
Replied to whatever came near.
He ran afoul of the Finns,
Wondered if they were twins.
And concluded they all must be queer.

It's possible to deal with one Finn
But invite any more of them in
As Bugs did one day
And you'll surely pray
For a bottle to recoup that Djinn

Harrison, fun and woman don't rhyme. Close, but not quite.

Also, scared and fair don't rhyme.

And the word you're looking for is "fare".

That was a forced rhyme, I know.

Need to include emphases for real rhymes. In accent I'm used to, emphasis isn't on the last syllable in Harrison and woman. Leads to different sound. Have you ever taken a linguistics course?

BTW, "women" and "Harrison" would actually be closer rhyme than "woman" is.

There once was a kitten named Horse,
Was superior to most, but of course.
His plan went awry,
When Alberta did cry.
Forever he looked for the source.

Looked East to find the great Snee.
Went by the name Asher,
More like a slasher.
At least he isn't me.

Well, you are a hockey fan so I guess we could make you an honourary Canadian. We just have to teach you how to speak with a proper accent.

Instead of Harra-sun, it's Harris-sin. Similar to "Hender-sin shoots, He scores! Canada Wins!

At least, that's how we would pronounce it in Ta-ron-no and that's all that matters in Canada.
