according to the www, there is no word that rhymes with month (or silver, purple, and orange)...
sorry, maybe you could take poetic license and rhyme it just using the 'th'?
good luck!

First, in response to blackcurry --besides the words that just end with the WORD "month" itself.... the fact that a word ends with the letters "onth" (as in "millionth") does not mean those letters are PRONOUNCED the same way, which is what a rhyme requires. In fact, the "o" in those word is 'swallowed', it is not the /uh/ sound found in "month". (Related to this the "onth" part of these words is not the ACCENTED syllalble, and good rhyming requires that the same syllable be accented.)
-------------------
As many have suggested, there is no "PERECT rhyme" tor this word ("perfect rhyme" requires that EVERY sound from the vowel of the accented syllable to the end of the word be IDENTICAL)
http://www.bartleby.com/61/83/P0188300.html
But very often we can do just fine with a "near rhyme", in which MOST of these sounds match. In this case, I would look first to word that end with the sound /un(C)s/ -- the C standing for some consonant. /un/ matches the "on" in month; the final /s/ is a fairly close to /th/
Here are my best bets (note that all might rhyme better with the plural "months", and most would work about as well dropping the s [where that's possible]):
bunts, blunts, dunce, fronts, grunts, hunts, once, punts, runts, shunts, stunts
(hint: say these with a lisp -- e.g., "onth upon a time"-- and they ALL will be perfect rhymes!)
Also note that "months" is, in many dialects very nearly pronounced like /munts/ anyway, so these words work very well.
bunks, clunks, chunks, dunks, drunks, funks, flunks, hunks, junks, monks, punks, plunks, skunks, thunks, trunks
OR, very close, with 'm' instead of 'n' --
bumps, chumps, dumps, frumps, gazumps, grumps, humps, jumps, lumps, mumps, numps, pumps, plumps, rumps, sumps, slumps, stumps, tumps, thumps, trumps, umps, whumps
AND some of my favorites:
humph (humpf), harrumph, flumpf, galumph
