Such joyous recognition in heart, arms, smile... and a placard
There are such campaigns all across Europe, East and West,
Australia, Japan. This is one from Italy.
In case you should feel inspired to know more or do your own,
Here is the official website:http://www.freehugscampaign.org/There's never any time like the present for a real,
Honest to goodness hug.Takes people a while to allow themselves that public happiness
But then the river flows, and it's something to look closely at the faces
Of those being hugged.
All the tension released.
Something held - maybe for years... or decades.
Let go.
