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.
A Longing for My Lost Summers
Across the sound, the mountains, tall,
rise from the sea, a snow-topped sweep,
where, days before, they were asleep,
No winter white, still waiting Fall.
I so long for my summer’s call,
it’s warmth, its all-embracing heat,
the blaze of sun upon bare feet,
that sense that time is yours alone,
wrapped in a swath, a bubble zone
of memories, my Summer’s Suite.
