Quote by Shel Silverstein, Hug O' War

I will not play at tug o' war.I'd rather play at hug o' war,Where everyone hugsInstead of tugs,Where everyone gigglesAnd rolls on the rug,Where everyone kisses,And everyone grins,And everyone cuddles,And everyone wins.

I will not play at tug o' war.I'd rather play at hug o' war,
