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.

Maybe I’m being thick, or just missing something… where’s the ‘challenge’? If it’s in the topic title, presumably it’s “(PITT) in the D rhyme line”, but that means nothing to me. Help?

No Brad Pitt, William Pitt poet am I…here’s the best I can produce this Wednesday morn
A Pittance of a Poem
One wanders into a new verse,
a challenging poem of change,
seeking a fresher slant, a range
of witty gems, sharp, pointed, terse.
It takes shape, each word that you nurse,
each phrase, each ebb, each gentle flow
of thoughts, echoes, sound’s high and low,
the wise weaving, the sum of it,
whether pittance or a plum pit(t),
it will thrive, perhaps even glow.
