Big Hugs

There's nothing on earth,
like a long, warm embrace
it's the most reassuring gesture,
in the whole human race

It's the ultimate show of love,
affection in all its glory
it's both hello and goodbye,
and can tell its own story

It's there in times of celebration,
and in times of great sadness
it's the best stress relief ever,
cos it takes away life's madness

Sometimes it only lasts a moment,
that we treasure deep in our hearts
it's effects cannot be described,
and stay with us from the start

It's a connection we can believe in,
a feeling we just cant shrug
and though we take it for granted,
we just cant deny the power of a hug
