Shel Silverstein has a great idea: hugs, not tugs. I'm in!

Enjoy this delightful poem and "Opa" Volkert Volkersa's rendition in song. 



Hug O' War
 ~Shel Silverstein

I will not play at tug-o'-war!
I'd rather play at hug-o'-war
Where everyone hugs
Instead of tugs
And where everyone giggles
And rolls on the rug
And where everyone kisses
And everyone grins
And everyone cuddles
And everyone wins!
