Sleep, my favorite subject. I adore the person who invented the modern comfortable bed. For our Creater who included this wonderful preservation tool in our life, You are the best. To you for reminding us we had this natural cure, answer and gift from the almighty, a big hug.
Yes sleep is in fact the best medicine. There was a sense of finality in that last sentence though. I presume you were suggesting death is actually the only way broken people can lay aside their cares?
Sleep for me is hours worth of opporutnity to dream and travel in many lands and receive many blessings and beauties and wonders! Love the way you included, “Sleep, for the Seeking an answer reveals.”
Reblogged this on Sunnyace Collections.

Beautiful Eric! you wrote alomst everything in the word of sleep… Everything that we seek,yearn,crave,need…. Awesome thought!
Thank you my dear. That is a very kind compliment. All good wishes, Eric
That was beautiful and sleep can mean so many things…
Yes, sleep is does many things for many people.
You’re right – sleep can be all those things. Tonight, for me, it will be rest for the weary…if I’m lucky, I might have spiritual revelation as well 🙂
Good rest is important – when it comes with spiritual revelation > splendid 🙂

May you enjoy long peaceful sleep everynight 🙂

Yes, I did mean it so – a little negative perhaps but there you have it…
Bruce Cockburn wrote a song, Charity of Night, about the mercy that death can be. Also the song Pacing the Cage.
Thank you for this kind poem Eric.
Sleep; that’s exactly what I need. Good night Eric.
Lol! I don’t wish to diminish any other comment here Susan – but yours was a great comment. Good night and hope you have sweet dreams, Eric 🙂
Sleep for the sleepy…that’s the best kind =D
but all kidding aside, great insight as always Eric =)
Actually, you said something so obviously true – sleep is for the sleepy 🙂
Let’s see… apart of everything said above, for me sleep is a gateaway, a runaway friend; a favourite activity indeed.
Yes, sleep indeed is all that you say. Thank you really, for this welcomed contribution. Cheers, Eric
How about an insomniac!:)
“Waste of time”
An insomniac is probably the one who really needs sleep.
I don’t know what it’s to be insomnic, but reckon in extreme cases it can wreck a person’s life. Feel sorry for these sufferers.

Ah Granbee – I knew you’ll pick up that one “Sleep, for the Seeking an answer reveals.”
I can’t help myself but to slip something like this in 🙂
sleep, a temporary friend for those with an 18 month old child…
Very true Elliot – been there, done that > three times.
The last two lines are striking, powerful, and true.
The final sleep – the inevitable release.
Sleep is a beautiful thing..
can anyone imagine life without it 😛
In the Third – body and soul need rest.
yes, problems seem so much more manageable after sleeping on it
When we’re told to sleep on it – good advice, especially when it’s not time sensitive.
Second best – take a walk. During my corporate days, had a quick lunch bite and took a stroll – always returned with a good quality answer.
sleep was an addiction to me 🙂
courtsey my pet cats and kolkata landlords its over now. how i relished those hours of long, sweet sleep 🙂
Ah, to sink into dreamland…what a gift.
One way to solve your problems – let the cats out and spay the landlord 🙂
This is very well-written Eric.
Have a great day ahead.
Warm wishes,
