The Light No One Named
They searched the sky for stars well-known,135Please respect copyright.PENANAaFvBufA5zS
for suns that burned, for moons that shone.135Please respect copyright.PENANAl4jWYlCz4A
Yet far beyond their measured sight,135Please respect copyright.PENANAIonylw9v2v
I drifted on—an unnamed light.
No guiding maps, no traced-out line,135Please respect copyright.PENANAKVcNt53pbi
no place within their grand design.135Please respect copyright.PENANAlLSYCpJtHO
Yet still, I gleamed, though soft, though far,135Please respect copyright.PENANAwRjasmInYc
a quiet, untamed kind of star.
For not all flames must blaze in gold,135Please respect copyright.PENANAFT7vkDfM4K
nor fit the stories they are told.135Please respect copyright.PENANAan9oUzlcCw
Some simply shine, in their own way—135Please respect copyright.PENANAH1Z7Sl8Fps
and that, too, lights the dark away.
