Rearrange rodents that scurry in the dark, or creative fine works in a gallery, and you will find a bright shape on the American flag. What am I?
Star
This riddle relies on anagrams of a four-letter word. Rodents are 'rats' and gallery creations are 'arts,' both of which use the letters S-T-A-R. Rearranging those letters yields 'star,' the iconic five-pointed symbol found on the national flag.
