Power of Hugs
I make it a must to do it at least once a day
Regardless of whether my dog is clean or not
As a hug given to her
Calms me down as much as it calms her down,
Taming the raging torrent that rages in me
Into a magical clear water pond
And making of me,
A mystical Queen always accompanied
By her companion, a pawed super hero,
Both living only for the joy of discovering the cosmos!
A hug, shared with my fluffy pet,
Reminds me always of the need to keep my heart
Bursting with love, even if the rest of the world
Is made of hatred, indifference and selfishness
As the rules of life are and shall keep on being harsh on us
To live we do, but someday, we shall no more
And if we can share hugs, just for the sake of giving ourselves
A feel good element,
Well, why not become angels of hugs
Spreading their power to all humankind?
