Hugs---(2)

A poem by Dean Walley

HUGGING

It's wondrous what a hug can do
A hug can cheer you when you're blue
A hug can say " I love you so" or "I hate to see you go..."
A hug is "welcome back again", "great to see you !" and/or "where have you been?"
A hug can soothe a small child's pain and bring a rainbow after rain.

The hug, there's just no doubt about it--- we scarcely could survive without it !
A hug delights and warms and charms
It must be why GOD gave us arms.
Hugs are great for fathers and mothers, sweet for sisters and swell for brothers
And chances are your favorite aunts love them more than potted plants.

Kittens crave them, puppies love them
Heads of states are not above them
A hug can break the language barrier
No need to fret about your store of them;
The more you give, the more there are of them
So stretch those arms without delay
And give someone a hug today !
