If
I am your child . . .
Please
touch me. Persist; find ways to meet my needs. Your goodnight
hug helps sweeten my dreams. Your daytime touching tells
me how you really feel.
If
I am your teenager . . .
Please
touch me. Don't think because I'm almost grown, I don't
need to know that you still care. I need your loving arms;
I need a tender voice.
If
I am your friend . . .
Please
touch me. Nothing lets me know you care like a warm embrace.
A healing touch when I'm depressed assures me I am loved,
And reassures me that I'm not alone. Yours may be the
only comforting touch I get.
If
I am your life's partner . . .
Please
touch me. You may think that your passion is enough, But
only your arms hold back my fears. I need your tender
reassuring touch, To remind me I am loved just because
I am me.
If
I am your grown-up child . . .
Please
touch me. Though I may have a family my own to hold, I
still need Mommy's and Daddy's arms when I hurt. As a
parent the view is different; I appreciate you more.
If
I am your aging parent . . .
Please
touch me. Hold my hand, sit close to me, give me strength;
And warm my tired body with your nearness. Although my
skin is worn and wrinkled, It loves to be stroked . .
.Don't be afraid.
