L 372-58

In the constellation of Horologium, A tiny star shines, oh so dim. GJ 1061 is its name, A red dwarf, with a gentle flame. Twelve light-years away it lies, A distance that truly mystifies. With a magnitude of thirteen, A telescope is what you'll need. Its proper motion was known back then, But its true distance was a question, when. Twenty-fifth nearest to our Sun, A discovery that was so much fun. This little star, so small and bright, With a mass that's just a fraction, right. Only twelve and a half percent, Of the Sun's mass, it represents. A red dwarf, it may be small, But its light shines for us all. No infrared excess to be found, Just a star, so humble and profound.
