Friendship
ach of us has a hidden place
Somewhere
deep within ourselves;
A place where we go to get away,
To think
things through,
To be alone, to be ourselves.
This unique place,
where we confront our deepest feelings,
Becomes a storehouse of all our
hopes,
All our needs, all our dreams,
And even our unspoken
fears.
It encompasses the essence of who we are and what we want to
be.
But now and then, whether by chance or design,
Someone
discovers a way into that place we thought was ours alone.
And we allow
that person to see, to feel and to share
All the reason, all the
uncertainty
And all the emotion we've stored up there.
That person
adds new perspective to our hidden realm,
Then quietly settles down in
his own corner of our special place,
Where a bit of himself will stay
forever.
And we call that person a friend.

A HUG
It's wondrous what a hug can do.
A hug can cheer you when you're
blue.
A hug can say, "I love You so"
Or, "I hate to see you go."
A hug is "Welcome back again,"
And "Great to see you! Where've you
been?"
A hug can soothe a small child's pain,
And bring a rainbow
after rain.
The hug, there's just no doubt about it---
We scarcely
could survive without it!
A hug delights and warms and charms,
It
must be why God Gave us arms.
Hugs are great for fathers and mothers,
Sweet for sisters, swell for brothers;
And chances are you favorite
aunts
Love them more than potted plants.
Kittens crave them, puppies
love them;
Heads of states are not above them.
A hug can break the
language barrier,
And make travel so much merrier.
No need to fret
about your store of 'em;
The more you give, the more there's more of em.
So stretch those arms without delay
And give someone a hug today!!!!
