My first letter is in fish and also in chips,
My second is in mouth but not in lips,
My third is in ache but not in pain,

Though we always stay in one place.

Show our pleasure or fears,
And you'll find us on everyone's face.

I daily am in France and Spain,
At times do all the world explore,
Since time began I've held my reign,
And shall till time will be no more.

In garden, field, or city park,
Yet all of these are sad and cold
If I'm not there and it is dark.
