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 Student
I am a student of the sun.
I glow from her sweet sparkling rays.
And through the sum of all my days,
I seek the light ‘til I am done.
Is this the way that wisdom’s won?
I begin each day, empty wise
Seeking truth, but aware of lies,
And in my humble way, I yearn
To take all that’s offered, to learn
from all the joys that life supplies.
