Merriam-Webster.com Use this site for syllables. I’ve used several online counters and too many have given different counts for the same word, so I use the dictionary now. Also, in some parts of the English speaking world, the syllables may come out in the spoken language a bit differently. And that’s okay. Write to enjoy, too learn, and yes, try to get the syllables right, but above all create and enjoy.

Our Health Authority is coming to our Island today and tomorrow to give us our second shot. Just as they did for the first short in late April. I hope this poem isn’t too sacrilegious…
The Second Coming…So to Speak
Today I get my second shot,
My Pfizer dream will be complete.
It surely is a vaccine feat,
though skeptics have suggested not.
I think I have a better thought,
as someone slightly in the know,
who cares to watch the wise winds blow,
the way of life, the shape of time,
as science seeks the perfect rhyme
to lay plague and pestilence low.
