Have You Hugged a Llama Today

Have you hugged a llama today Or a bunny or a kangaroo You'll feel all squiggly and giggly inside And a bit rumpity bumpity too Not only will you feel all squiggly inside But these guys will be wearing a grin They sure like receiving those huggeroonies You'll notice their tails start to spin So if you spy a sad looking teddy Or a kitten with eyes full of tears Tell them you love 'em and hold 'em tight You'll chase away all of their fears Tonight when mommy tucks you in And gives you a big snuffily kiss Remember the lonely animals out there Blow them a kiss and don't miss There's a moral here, haven't found it yet Maybe it's hiding under a chair Hugging llamas and other poor creatures Really tells them you care

l keep going back to read this poem, l absolutely love it. l keep seeing it in pictures when l read it, like in a book with lots of illustrations above the rhymes. You should send it off to a publisher, say a childrens picture rhyming as l could see it being really nice to have illustrated, and l would definitly buy it. Take care Jack, have a lovely Sunday, J

Jack, your poem, is a delightful read! The playful rhythm and rhyme scheme make it a joy to recite. The message of showing love and care to all creatures, big and small, is beautifully conveyed. The ending leaves the reader with a warm, fuzzy feeling, much like a hug from a llama. Keep writing and spreading positivity through your words! - Blessings, Daniel
