HUG O' WAR (Monday Poem)

by Shel Silverstein


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



from Where the Sidewalk Ends: the poems and drawings of Shel Silverstein, 1974, Harper & Row
