Monday's Riddle: A Clear Divide...

Hello, Riddlers! Can you guess our theme? We'll leave a light on. ; ) ~ F

I am the shade on a circle that's spinning. Two of us race, but neither is winning. Round you go, though I'm very still; you like to pretend that I rush at your will. But I'm the measure of what's not light, and it's hard to see while I'm in sight. Some feel afraid, and they huddle for morn. Others revel under stars being born. A side of a side, a yin of a yang; the space in which you see the bang. Hence the divide, for it lights the stage. The action below depends on your age. A lizard king sang of this play, telling them all _____ divides day.

What word am I looking for? (fill in the blank)

I gave you a clue!

    Hey, I think I can actually get this one (without having read everyone answers first, ha)! I would say night too. And just to let you know b/c I'm too lazy to send an email right now, I'll be sending interview questions sometime this week. Thanks! =)

    Night divides day- I got this one but I was rather late today and I see lots of others got it first.

    Looks like I don't have to guess. Night sounds perfect!

    I'm really bad at riddles. I suppose that shows a lack of logic on my part.

    I was going to say darkness until I reached the part about the Lizard King and that definitely refers to Jim Morrison, so it's gotta be Night.

    Hi human, Jess,

    The length of the night depends on the time of the year. Unless you live on the equator.

    Pawsitive wishes and doggy kisses,

    You've got me, so I cheated and looked at what everyone said. I'm still not sure. Will you ease up on us? Please? :-)

    Thank goodness there are plenty who have left a comment before me. Clueless as to what this weeks riddle is, I'm also going with 'night'.

    I thought at first it was moon, but the fill-in-the-blank definitely pointed to night. Glad I got it right! :)
