SNUGGLING UP...

There comes a time before they snooze
When lions snuggle, too,
When such a closeness none refuse,
As that's the thing to do...
And so a warmth ensues each time,
A sweet tranquillity,
A bond of friendship so sublime,
As if it's meant to be...

It's not their way to stay aloof,
No profit comes by that,
Each generation serves as proof,
That true love's where it's at...
Nobody's there to say that's cool,
Yet each knows, it feels great...
Nobody thinks that they're a fool,
They see it as first rate...

When people hug, it's quickly done,
But snuggling close persists,
It's more than love because it's fun,
Unless some fool resists...
I thought that it was understood,
Like kissing... day and night...
So please don't shun what looks so good!
Join in and snuggle tight...
