“Love 'tween all creatures can be felt;
their hearts, like ours, can warm and melt.”
_by Poet
I would hug you, if you'd let me;
you stare at me with loving eyes
and watch me spread a snack surprise!
You now come closer, and I see
perhaps your trust will someday be
much stronger than you may surmise-
I would hug you!
A bond exists, to some degree-
your body language now implies.
Oh, gentle Deer, please analyze-
if you could walk to me with glee-
I would hug you!
