I had difficulty finding a rhyme for Galapagos, Gwynne found two!
That wins for me.

They tell me that everyone proper goes
to church every Sunday. My papa goes.
...My mama does, too.
...But the Bible's not true
if you study the beasts in Galapagos.

Bugger.
Another two.
Well done Bob, excellent.

Jim Haze, thank you, but it is Gwynn, a minor point, I admit, but a sore one.

Signed,

R. S. Gywnn
R. S. Gwin
R. S. Gwynne
S. Gufna
R. S. Gueyana
R. S. Gwy
R. S. Gynn
et al., including "R. S. Gwinn," who once appeared on the cover of Poetry.

Well, I can see why Jim was tempted to give you a proper vowel for a change. A seven-letter nom d'plume without a single a-e-i-o-u? Preposterous!

Roger, I always thought those consonants would make me appear slimmer!

Nevermind- it's still a gwynner.

You just feel that way because you moved your vowels.
