A New Day Somewhere On Earth

Somewhere on earth, there is a new day
Somewhere on earth, people get paid
A new day has less than twenty four hours
Earth orbits around the sun 366.2499 days a year
Which brings hope, joy, love, and despair
The future encompasses several flairs
Of new days. As long as there is life
There is a new day for the wife
To talk about. Tomorrow is of course a new day
However, people rarely talk about a new night
Because people fear darkness and dark sights
There is a new day somewhere in the universe
Only on earth, there is a new day
Only on earth, time walks, runs, and matters
Only on earth, there is a payday
Which means nothing in the stratosphere
There is no day. There is no fear
Everything is constant and linear
And everything is dead and near.

Enjoyed your in depth poem about day, but really no day or night. Love the last four lines which were enlightening to me.
