Sonnet 53: On Sleep Comments

a subtle poem indeed! i wonder it is on sleep or on vigils! nicely done......

A sleepless night brings into our mind a train of painful memories often! If we are able to sleep away, we will be rid of all nagging thoughts! Sleep is nature's balm! May you be blessed with sound sleep and be visited by beautiful dreams of your union with your beloved! My prayers! !

I love sonnets, even about sleeplessness. Well. you got a good poem out of it. A FINE JOB

a very nice heartfelt sonnet written by you David...how beautifully you have cited the situations of many who do not get peaceful sleep at night, we just lie awake on bed and stare at the roof, its really so horrifying, not getting a peaceful sleep! a very good write

I guess we've all been there. Restless mind syndrome, I call it. Maybe that's the ideal time to work on our poems! You did a good job on yours!

Ah elusive Morpheus many a night have I wished for your touch. As a part time insomniac I know what it is to lie awake. You have managed to capture it completely, except my pillows always feel like stone. 10/10 David. =: OD BB

i used to sleep too much that was my pleasure now poetry doest allow me to sleepmuch, you write a beutiful sonnet with graet flow.. i liked it

Me too David, sleep often eludes me. Great sonnet.

A bird can't fly but the wings so a man can't dream if there is no sleep... lovely sonnet with the tinge of sorrow

Getting good sleep is a bliss. There are many who 'lay awake through the dark of the night'. You stated the plight of many through your own feelings in your poem. Mind is strange. How do we keep it free from all thoughts to get restful sleep? Thank you for another nice sonnet.
