Who likes backrubs?


Massage

My mother
taught touch
as entry to sleep.

Those lessons shared later
with a restive lover
gain exquisite synergies.

Thumb pressing
behind shoulders,
stroking neck and scalp,

slow tracing her spine
to the downy
small of her back.

Sensing her staving off sleep,
locking down my touch,
then paying debts to dreams.

Who enjoys a good backrub? ME! ME!! LOL

I have a pinched nerve in my neck; I hadn't had a decent night's sleep in almost a year. Think about that. I went on a cruise, and the one extravagant thing I spent money on was a massage. It was worth every penny of $156.00--if I'd had another $156.00, I'd a done it again. I slept for 12 hours afterwards, and had no pain for two days. Can you imagine??

I love this soothing write--thank you, Poet!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. :)

On the Edge of Words by Debra Kraft

Questions, unquestioned discoveries, and answers in parable and rhyme…. This collection records a journey starting with a 1960s retrospective and the first man on the moon, moving to a new millennium welcomed in with a terrorist spin, family crises,
