Brian, I'll take your word for it! Maybe one day I'll give it a try, but no point in running before I can walk. My cento came entirely from a volume called "The Nation's 100 Favourite Poems," which seems an appropriate pun.
Inicidentally, there doesn't seem to be any rule that centos are supposed to rhyme. Most examples I can find online don't. I'm sure Jayne's will win since it goes that extra mile as well as being very funny, but people shouldn't be put off from trying a cento because of the near-impossibility of the task. There's a lot of fun to be had with blank verse.
