Ann Gilmour Poet Rhyme

I'Ll Even Hug a Passing Frog

Hugging
I have heard
is coming back to stay
for rumour has it 
we are fast approaching
National Hugging Day
Awaiting an announcement from Prime Minister Boris J
All hugging can resume
here on the
17th of May
Three cheers my friends
Hip hip Hooray
have waited for so long
For now at last I can embrace
My friends
My family
My cat
My dog
So full of hugs am I
I’ll even hug a passing frog
Hugs they bring so many smiles
I am a hugger
born and bred
For many months
I had to hug you
virtually instead
but now it seems it’s mandatory
for Boris he has said
So here I come 
with arms outstretched
to make up for lost time
Hugging you so tightly
I may never ever let you go
Your tender hugs 
how much I’ve missed 
for you will never know
They fill my heart when we’re apart
twinkle and shine ~ until next time…

Jan Allison May 10, 2021 at 11:59 PM The pandemic has removed so many things we took for granted - sending HUGE hugs to you Ann, we hugged our elderly friends last Sunday - so good to be able to mix with them once again, who would have thought how our lives would be so controlled:-( hugs and hugs again:-) Jan xx I found not being able to hug our friend at her hubbies funeral one of the hardest things to bear during lockdown:-( Ann Gilmour May 22, 2021 at 11:51 PM A hug can say so much without a word being spoken and oh how I have missed them Jan. Sending you big hugs too xx

Victor Buhagiar May 10, 2021 at 10:32 PM Hugging is a means to show affection and one does not hug without reason. I rarely hug virtually on the soup. Many do so for reasons of their own. But you are such an affectionate you deserve one. Hugs Ann Gilmour May 22, 2021 at 11:53 PM ohhh thank you dear Victor for your hug and I send my hug to you dear friend xx
