Sites to help:
RhymeZone.com
Thesaurus.com
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.

The Old Poet and the Jokester, Time
The Morning has become so dark,
awkward; I am prone to stumble,
to walk the walls, then to mumble
that aging is a tortured lark.
I had a life more bite than bark,
though taunted by that jokester, Time
who bellow boast, ‘age is no crime,
so much as simply, just desserts.’
Jokester Time, it teases, it flirts,
still, I embrace my long-lost prime.
