Most sought After...Least received
Soft arms wrap around you
In friendly warm embrace
Gesture without words
A smile upon one’s face
No charge…no love lost…
No obligation, no reservation
Freely given, no fee or cost
Warm reception, no hesitation
Not asked for… yet freely given
Rush of sensation, so warm, so snug
The most sought after thing…(for me)
is a warm friendly hug
