The Power of a
(((Hug)))
![](anim_frogbeatingheart.gif)
There's
something in a simple hug
That always
warms the heart;
It welcomes us
back home
And makes it
easier to part.
A hug's the way
to share the joy
And sad times we
go through,
Or just a way
for friends to say
They like you
'cuz you're you.
Hugs are meant
for anyone
For whom we
really care-
From your
grandma to your neighbor.
Or a cuddly
teddy bear.
A hug is an
amazing thing--
It's just the
perfect way
To show the love
we're feeling
But can't find
the words to say.
It's funny how a
little hug
Makes everyone
feel good;
In every place
and language,
It's always
understood.
And hugs don't
need equipment,
Special
batteries, or parts--
Just open up
your arms
And open up your
heart.
