Oh, your very beautiful poem made me think that I also probably need massage my very dear friend Maria. But, not the thai massage anymore unless I can instruct them well to do it more gently in their language ;))) but, i think I'll have siatsu )) safer for a delicate me ;)) A great poem indeed. I love it and so enjoyed. Thank you so much for sharing! Big big hugs! love lots, Leonora
