Words that rhyme with Soaring
Take soaring apart phonetically and the bones are these: two-syllable, vowel on the clipped /ษช/, ending that trails through a nasal hum. Its everydayness lets the song surprise around it. In a song, the word is a low-register anchor. Behind it, the rhyme map shows the strict-rhyme column is bounded, family-rhyme matches contribute a small near-perfect column, and the assonance well runs into four figures. The slant-by-vowel column will carry you a long way past the strict matches.

Why soaring rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for soaring starts at the vowel โ the tight /ษช/, IPA /ษช/ โ and ends where the line lets the line ring through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 21 matches, family rhymes 2, additive and subtractive together 130, assonance 8,022, and consonance 120. The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Soaring rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
