*501 Massage Of The Mind - A Sonnet Poem by John Knight

The room is warm and the fan is blowing
The place to start is your naked shoulders
Which present a perfect invitation
To be gently massaged by my fingers.
The only barrier between ourselves
And our tactilityis the jasmine.....
Scented oil - the scent you requested
To ameliorate the full sensation
Of touch and emotion of the massage.
The 'first time' is always aprehensive
And massage is no exception to rule.
First I place my hands onto your shoulders
To break the ice and make connection.
'Please please relax' I whisper 'and enjoy! ! ! '.

We synchronise our breathing - more slowly
I start with gentle circular movements
Round your shoulders and slowly down your spine.
I can sense your eyes closing - lips parting
Hair falling - hypnotic - chiropractic
The efflourage synchronised with breathing
Total relaxation and surrender.
I mould my fingers into your contours
Kneeding - squeesing - stretching your texture
The moans I hear are moans of pleasure
Normally only heard in foreplay.
Masseurs and Masseusesare not voyeurs
We are professional people with strict......
Boundaries just like Dodtors and Nurses! ! !

My moves are slow firm and deliberate
To make sure they penetrate through your skin
To your muscle - to your circulation
The jasmine permeating through your pores
Into your bloodstream reaching your brain
Soothing - relaxing - sleeping and dreaming.
You are helpless in my hands - my treasure
To mould - to manipulate - to massage.
My only desire is to treasure you
And pleasure you through all the benefits
Of full body holistic massage.
You are obliviuos to passage
Of my gentle and skillful hands over
Your back - your bottom - your thighs and your feet! ! !

Each stroke relieves your physical tension
The jasmine relieves your mental tension
And form your relaxing sleep and your dreams
You slowly wake as reflexology
Stimulates all your vital organs.
Heart - liver - kidneys - lungs - reproductive
System - reflexes and your thought processes
You awake renewed - rejuvinated.
You might well ask - can a dorsal massage
Achieve all this - release and relaxation?
What would happen if I massaged both sides?
Well full-frontal massage - of both sexes
Raises issues of both privacy and.........
Permission and Practices and Parlours! ! !
