Janes, Jeans, Joans, Junes...? Sure. Jines and Jynes...? No Sir!

Janes...? I know Austen and Mansfield and Goodall 
and Darwell and Lynch and Avril. 
I know Fonda and Seymour
and Russell and Wyatt. 
I -- plainly -- know more than my fill.
(Ought I mention Calamaty Jane...
...who, while arm'd, displays legerdemain...?) 
I know oodles of Janes, which is fine...
...yet I don’t recall one single Jine.

Jeans...? I know Harlow and Arthur and Redpath 
and Auel and Shrimpton and Kerr. 
I know Hagen and Seberg
and Kennedy Smith. 
E. Jean Carroll...? I’ll not forget her. 
(Ought I specify Spark's Miss Jean Brodie...
...who turn'd fascist but never turn'd toady...?)
I know lots of Jeans – largely online...
...yet I don’t recall one single Jyne. 
 
Joans...? I know Crawford
and Collins and Jett; 
I know Sutherland, Baez and d’Arc. 
I know Plowright and Hickson and Caulfield and Rivers... 
...and Didion (that damsel's dark). 
(Ought I recognize Li'l Jumping Joan...
...who Mère l'Oye adds is "always alone"...?)
I know tons of Joans, girlfriends of mine...
...yet I don’t recall one single Jine.

Junes...? I know Carter Cash,
Christy and Taylor 
and Haver and Havoc and Knight.
And that painting of Leighton’s they call “Flaming June.” 
Also Lockhart and Foray, alright...?
(Ought I add as a footnote June Cleaver...
...who play'd Ward's wife in "Leave It To Beaver"...?)
Dames dubb'd June...? Here I'd best draw the line...
...Still, I don't recall Jine. Nope, nor Jyne. *

* Not considered above are Dick and Sally's sister Jane,
actress Jan Clayton, former White House press secretary
Jen White, south Korean girl group Oh My Girl member JinE,
actress Gene Tierney, Honey Boo Boo's Mama June, Tekken's
Jin Kazama and Star Wars' Jyn Erso.
