Antiheteronymericks

Something fun for the weekend... In June 2004, I coined the neologism "antiheteronymerick", for a limerick containing one or more rhyming words that are spelled differently to particular other words but have the same pronunciation and meaning. (Read one and you'll see what I mean.)

I've finally got around to gathering the ones I know about together in a web page. Additions welcome :-)

These don't appeal to my sense of limerick at all, but you might like another kind of limerick challenge:
