indeed a great poem An expression of solitaryness in a crowded world, sober and philosopical stirs the inner emotions soothingly

Indeed I am bounddown with this poem. The whole world shares with tears.

I am grateful.

All you who sleep tonight has been one of my favourite poems for years. So easy to memorize and so touching to recite. It is emotion in a small but poweful dose

it's like saying; 'all are alone and are together in being alone'. Indeed a poignant write or shall i say a pensive write?

Just beautiful- helping us to remember we sleep in the cradle of life....with millions of stars above

such a beautiful poem.............
