It's wondrous what a hug can do,
a hug can cheer you when your blue.
A hug can say, "I love you so,"
or, "Gee I hate to see you go."
A hug is, "Welcome back again!"
and, "Great to see you!" or
"Where've 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 sister, swell for brothers,
and chances are some favorite aunts
love them more then potted plants.
Kittens crave them. Puppies love them.
Heads of state are not above them.
A hug can break the language barrier,
And make the dullest day seem merrier.
No need to fret about the store of 'em.
The more you give, the more there
are of 'em.
So stretch those arms without delay
and give someone a hug today
a hug can cheer you when your blue.
A hug can say, "I love you so,"
or, "Gee I hate to see you go."
A hug is, "Welcome back again!"
and, "Great to see you!" or
"Where've 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,

And make the dullest day seem merrier.

The more you give, the more there
are of 'em.
So stretch those arms without delay
and give someone a hug today

Hugs, hugs, hugs - what more can you ask for......except dark chocolate. I know the greatest gift my dad gave me was a hug each day, and after reading this poem, I realize I need to do a better job of that as well. Here's a big cyber hug, Dear Daughter!! Love you!!
