Well, I stand corrected. I was well and truly wrong. I was convinced that Max would pick the word "pie" for his rhyming word today.
Instead, he chose: sausages. I looked at him, somewhat aghast. How could I have missed that one? Bob, Cats, Milk, Apples, Cheese - it had to be pie. But I overlooked a vital clue... cheese dogs. By association, cheese becomes cheese dogs, dogs become sausages.
There are not many words that rhyme with sausages, unless you want to write about sausages in Ancient Rome, and then you could use auspices.
We needed to think about what sausages do or what words best describe sausages.
They sizzle, they roll around on the ground, you by them by weight, you can put them on the barbecue or in a hot dog bun, they are cooked on automatic grills (I really do not know where that idea came from), Max even has them on home-made pizza (which defeats the purpose of me trying to make it healthy).
So, Max and Mum proudly present a rhyme about sausages:
Sausages

Filled with cheese, they roll around,
On barbecues a sizzle sound,
Sitting on automatic grills,
Hot dogs complete with all the frills.
I like my sausages by the pound.
Now, about that pie......
