Hugs

Don't be alarmed by me I've always been a hugger In touch with my emotions No one calls me slugger In fact I have been known To wear my heart on my sleeve It really is dangerous More than you might believe If not for the hugging It would have turned to ice Instead it's toasty warm All this hugging is so nice If you come to see me I'll greet you like a bear I'll hug you really close You'll see how much I care Even more than giving They are great to receive Remember to hug a friend It will make their heart believe To hug is to be human It brings joy to our face We can release sorrow By sharing an embrace Something that is so simple Can make our life worthwhile The more of them I'm given The larger that I will smile My goal is to be happy Reach out and give me a hug From there access my heart stings If you wish give them a tug

I needed a hug this morning and I found this, I hope you still have few hugs waiting for me. (hug)

Ahh! I love this one! I'm a HUGEE hugger, and I know most of my friends aren't, but I squeeze them till they can't breathe right. Haha! This was sooo good! Wish you the best in the contest!! *Huggzzz*

It is great being part of a buggy family. Have you heard of Dr. Leo Busgalia? He was a famous Hugger and wrote a few books on love as well as taught a course on love at a major university. The course was always full to capacity. I forget the name of the University.
