Best Hugged Poems


Premium Member Have You Hugged a Llama Today

One for you kiddies out there!


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 but I haven't found it
Maybe it's hiding under a chair
Hugging llamas and other poor creatures
Will really show that you care

We Hugged Each Other

That’s What We Do
In group therapy
We hug each other…
We share personal things
We hug each other…
We confide – open up – open wide
We hug each other…

It seems that when he came to me.
We hugged each other…
He lingered when
We hugged each other…
And it felt so good when
We hugged each other…
 He was so warm…his chest so kind…his sweater so clean…
I felt so alive…

When we hugged each other.

I stand 
and wait
for the lion 
to overtake 
me…

Premium Member Hugged

Wish I could reach around the moon
Sun and stars, I'd be there soon
Catapult in to the air
Do anything to get me there

Click my heals, no hugs like yours
Walk through walls and break down doors
Bumble like a happy bee
Past every flower, vine and tree

Read quantum physics till I unravel
The mystery of safe time travel
See that's what beating hearts are for
So you get loved, hugged and adored!

You'll skip down life's thoroughfare

When We Hugged.

The moon gazed.
The stars ripened,
and immortal whispers charmed the forest
with her tale,
........when we hugged.

Hugged

Faint breathing of sleep
Lean arms entwined from behind
Living hearth aflame


Hugged My Memories

escapism through dreams
a way to lose this plaintive scowl

the wayward wind
carried in this ocean breeze
teases my emotions
as it wraps itself around me
like your arms once did

i can hear your voice
tarry in the zephyr of summer
as the salted spray kisses me

i can feel my heart sinking
with the same force as my feet
as i try to stand my ground
against the ocean's fury

it lashes back
with the same force
as my emotions
as i stand alone
stranded on the sands of time
counting these grains
as days gone by...

A Hug

The shine over there and I got stucked
The roof over there and I want to be hugged
I know that there is no one, still I wait
In the result, I got late 
The winter night is rude for being shrinked
And I thought that maybe I get linked
There is no one for me
But I still there to be
The night and the shine has cryptic meaning
But my decoding ability went for the cleaning 
I am thinking with my blowing mind
And light is helping me to get find
My inner voice is screaming
But still I am dreaming
I felt that I got sucked
That's why I want to be get hugged

We Hugged

We hugged – that’s all
In our pajamas sometime around 3 or 4 am
We hugged – that’s all
The warm body pressed the seconds into hours
Then back to sleep again
It was a deep, strong
Commitment by two loving people
One of them was me
We hugged – that’s all

Premium Member My Friend

My Friend.

I dreamt I saw you
Ignored you at first
Then I hugged you
My old friend
I wouldn’t let you go
As in real life I did
I want to reconcile
Take back the words
But what difference would it make?
None so I’ve heard
You were here
Plain as day
Your old self
I wish only good for you
I hope you know
I wish you luck 
And now I’ll go.

Frog Who Hugged a Synagogue

Frog Who Hugged a Synagogue

Minora candles were on long log,
Had been found by famous frog;
Cream of crop;
Liked to hop;
Did drank grog in a synagogue

I hugged my murderers

Those who served salt on my wounds,
snatched my childhood diary,
threw it into orange fumes.
I hugged them.

Burned my dreams, locked every door;
my favourite scarf, they tore.
The depth of darkness they showed in their core—
fear of a knock on the door
since the age of four.

I sit beside my window,
watch a homeless snore.
I find his life a dream of mine—
jealousy from my eyes gets poured.

Yet after decades, I hold a smile;
all scars, perfectly, I hide.
I gift sweetness to the monsters
who drank my blood.
I offered bonds to the evils
who used to flood—

floods of tears,
oceans of sadness,
peace of heavy weight.

Yet apparently,
this is my karma.
This is my fate.

Premium Member Hugged By Love

He pulled me into
An embrace that was real
Like a light in the dark
Filling up my broken heart

His love hugged me
With kindness and tenderness
Whispers of serenity
Discovered inside love
That is alive and wise
Love that abides on the inside

He left me feeling sure
That love had warmed my soul
And I could always be certain
God was working through the one
Who touched my heart
And opened up the door
To grace that flows alive
Like a gentle kiss that abides

He is gone now
But his love lingers here
On the naked skin
Where hope always wins
And faith reminds you when
Love is there – in a prayer
You have been hugged by grace
And seen God face to face
