Arms wrapped around
Without a sound
That’s a hug.
It’s a place of safety
Protection, comfort, love
And a hug can be done
By anyone.
From birth a hug
Will sooth and calm
Make a baby feel secure
Will take away childish fear
If in a hug they are held near.
If I’m feeling down
Don’t speak, give me a hug
When I’m suffering, poorly, weak
A hug will make me strong.
The game won; the race run
Rejoice with me
A hug will say
More than words any day.
After such a long time
I see you again
A mutual hug
Will better express
How much we’ve missed
Each other.
I’m mourning a loved one
Bowed down with grief
A really good hug
Brings relief.
Then there’s the day
When we have to say
Goodbye
Don’t cry! Give me a hug
That will stay with me
In my memory.
