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 Decima poem completed at blast-off…with a few faults…the poem…
Shatnering The Curve
We gape at the Blue Origin,
ready to hurdle into space,
Captain Kirk, a familiar face,
stars trekking where he’s never been.
This is quite the moment he’s in
and it must take a ton of nerve
ninety, full of vigor and verve,
still, as we earthlings wait and gawk,
we are sad there’s no Mister Spock
to share the ride, to also serve.
