Just a Little Hug

A hug can say
    "I'll miss you,"
or, "I'll be thinking of you."
     It can say,
"You're someone special,"
or best if all, "I love you."
     It can soothe a hurt
or calm a fear,
     Or cheer us when we're blue--
It almost seems    
     a miracle
all the things
     a hug can do.
