The Light No One Named
They searched the sky for stars well-known,169Please respect copyright.PENANAwzjygq3AbQ
for suns that burned, for moons that shone.169Please respect copyright.PENANAyMzgmUgb6w
Yet far beyond their measured sight,169Please respect copyright.PENANAPcbLEd1g58
I drifted on—an unnamed light.
No guiding maps, no traced-out line,169Please respect copyright.PENANAegy4ewIcX8
no place within their grand design.169Please respect copyright.PENANA3FrFboSZhg
Yet still, I gleamed, though soft, though far,169Please respect copyright.PENANAFpTH8qznFT
a quiet, untamed kind of star.
For not all flames must blaze in gold,169Please respect copyright.PENANAxFSTuhxRo2
nor fit the stories they are told.169Please respect copyright.PENANA4ofNFuK40E
Some simply shine, in their own way—169Please respect copyright.PENANAxtmVIGWlR3
and that, too, lights the dark away.
