As for today -- since to rhyme you only have to match things beginning with the vowel of the accented syllable, ANY word ending with an accented long /a/ sound will work
Look for words ending with -ay, some of those ending with -ey (bey, convey, dey, drey, fey, hey, obey, prey, survey [the verb], they, trey), and several with accented -e(e) (e.g. toupee), as well as the -eigh words (weigh, sleigh, neigh, inveigh) and lei.
