The Art of Kissing, Part 5
Kissing Games

Before we conclude this series on the Art of Kissing and we talk about kissing games, let's discuss the importance of varying your kisses.

As was mentioned before, the true lover is not satisfied with only one or two contacts. He wants nothing to be held from him. It is for that reason that, when kissing a girl, after you have given sufficient time to the kissing of her lips, you should vary your kissing by diverting your zeal to other portions of her face.

Robert Herrick, who wrote, many beautiful love lyrics in his day, has a poem which ideally synthesizes this idea of varied kisses. In it he says:

It isn't creature born and bred

Between the lips all cherry-red;

It is an active flame that flies

First to the babies of the eyes;

Then to the cheek, the chin and ear;

It frisks and flies-now here, now there-

'Tis now far off, and then 'tis near;

Here and there and everywhere.

Let us say that you have revelled in a sweet, long kiss. Suddenly, you see your loved one's eyes close as though in a moment of weariness. Gently detach your lips from her's and raise them up to her closed eyelids. Drop a kisslet first on one eyelid and then on the other. Feel the rolling orb quiver under your lips. Then , when you have done this, run your lips down along the line of her nose, stopping at odd times to purse them into a tiny kiss. When you reach the wrinkle of her nostrils, bury your lips deeply into the curve and kiss little niblets into first one and then the other. If her eyes still are closed, repeat the process.

But return to the lips.

Never forget this important injunction, "Return to the lips," for they can never become satiated with love's ardent kisses. The little kisses that you have deposited on her eyes and her nose serve only to vary the Menu of love. They are but spice to the course of love's banquet which should always be the "lip kiss."

KISSING GAMES

One wonders at the prevalence of kissing games in this civilization. Games on the order of "Postoffice", "Kiss the Pillow" and innumerable others which have been devised for the jovial disports of lovers. In these games, because they are games, it is perfectly legitimate for two people to lass. In fact, in the game "Postoffice", this kissing is encouraged behind closed doors, where the happy couple are alone in a room. The game is so widespread that comment in regard to the manner in which it is played would be extraneous here. But, what would make an excellent topping off for this series, would be a conjecture as to the reason for the prevalence of such games, even during the dreaded Victorian times, when etiquette was so strict that the dictum was made forbidding the placing of a book by a female author next to a book written by a man!

These kissing games existed and shall continue to exist because man and woman must kiss. In fact, man is the only animal who uses the kiss to express his love and affection. Dogs, cats and bears lick their offspring. Horses and cows rub noses and necks. Birds nestle together. But, only mankind kisses. Only mankind has the reason, the logic, the happy faculty of being able to appreciate the charm, the beauty, the extreme pleasure, the joy, the passionate fulfillment of the kiss!

Nature kisses, in her way, but nature hasn't the brains to profit from the kiss. Only man can do this. Perhaps it would be appropriate to conclude this series on the art of kissing with an excerpt from Shelley's immortal poem in which occur the following lines:

See the mountains kiss high heaven,

And the waves-clasp one another.

No sister flower would be forgiven

If it disdained its brother.

And the sunlight clasps the earth,

And the moonbeams kiss the sea;

What are are these kissings worth

If thou kiss not me?

I hope you enjoyed this issue on kissing games and the series on the art of kissing. Stay tuned for more series on sexual health topics.

Until then, I wish you the best sexual health,
