If I could count their number from afar,

See jewelled patterns, would I find the spar

With which the gates of knowledge to unbar?

Or would I find that Now is where we are…

Not guided by some bright, elusive star.

For Jane Dougherty’s 50th Poetry Challenge.

    Love it! Spar and unbar are terrific rhymes, strong and deliberate as well as being unexpected.
