We All need a Hug
by Ben Sands

I remember I wasn't much older than four - maybe five, at the most
The go-to-school mornings were colder - no such thing as a bus
Our mother'd be searching for schoolbags and combing our hair the wrong way
As she buttered our toast and buttoned our coats, here's what my mother would say

We all need a hug in the morning and one at the end of the day
And as many as possible squeezed in between to keep life's troubles at bay
No matter, wherever you ramble, your problems be great or be small
It is my belief - for instant relief - a hug is the best cure of all


Good night all ... sleep tight and good luck for anyone having a creditors meeting tomorrow.
When I was young I was called a rugged individualist
When I was in my fifties I was considered eccentric
Here I am doing and saying the same things I did back then and now I'm labelled senile

That's so sweet Ray!

Thanks Ray :)

Do you think if I printed this out and showed my teenage boys the importance of hugs they'd be any more forthcoming? .........no, thought not!
