SIX RHYMING RIDDLES

1)
I come in secret late at night,
You see me there at morn's first light;
I bathe the earth each day at dawn,
By noon. alas, I am long gone.

2)
Here there is no north, no west, no east;
And weather not fit for man nor beast.

3)
Large as a mountain, small as a pea;
Hurtling ever through an airless sea.

4)
It doesn't speak, though it has a voice;
It has no teeth, yet it has a bite.

5)
Five little items of an every-day sort,
You'll find us lined up in a tennis court.

6)
I stop and go 86,400 times a day,
And yet I only go one way;
I am faster than the rest,
But that doesn't make me the best.
