A Bear Hug For Someone Special

Here's a little Bear Hug
His arms are open wide
And though he's small
His heart is filled
With lots of love inside
If you are ever lonely
And your heartstrings need a tug
Just find this Bear and then right there
He'll give a tiny hug.

Friendship Rainbow
I don't need a pot of gold
From every rainbows end;
For I found the greatest wealth
Is having you for my friend.
Here are some little hugs for you
Just a way that I can say
Thank you for being the color
In a world that often seems grey!

or change the last two lines to say:

Thank you for your friendship
Please have a colorful day!

Grandma Hugs
Grandmother, you are like a patchwork quilt,
so cozy and so warm.
Just listening to your stories,
reminds me of your wisdom and your charm.
I know I can always come to you,
When lost or feeling alone.
For you always comfort me,
and make me feel at home.
You are the silver lining,
of a cloudy day
and I know whom I can trust
when black clouds blow my way.
I store your hugs and kisses
In my heart each day.
So I'd like to share some back with you
To give you back love in my own special way.
Paulette, 1999

Homework Hugs ...

An Angel's jar of "Homework Hugs"
To help with the studies you'll do.
A beary sweet hug and quick studybreak,
Will lovingly see you through.

To this angelic bear *you* are
So beary special and dear!
She'll encourage with hugs and brings to you
Our wishes for a GREAT school year!

Hug Me!

No moving parts, no batteries.
No monthly payments and no fees;
Inflation proof, non-taxable,
In fact, it's quite relaxable;
It can't be stolen, won't pollute,
One size fits all, do not dilute.
It uses little energy,
But yields results enormously.
Relieves your tension and your stress,
Invigorates your happiness;
Combats depression, makes you beam,
And elevates your self-esteem!
Your circulation it corrects
Without unpleasant side effects
It is, I think the perfect drug:
May I prescribe, my friend, the hug!

Why God Made Hugs

Everyone was meant to share
God's all-abiding love and care.
He saw that we would need to know
a way to let these feelings show.

So God made hugs - a special sign,
and symbol of His love divine,
a circle of our open arms
to hold in love and keep out harm.

One simple hug can do its part
to warm and cheer another's heart.
A hug's a bit of heaven above
that signifies His perfect love.
