caresses
Gentle loving contact
Caresses is the plural of caress—gentle, loving touches meant to show affection.
A caress is tender rather than forceful, often romantic or sensual: She felt his caresses on her skin.
The verb caress means to touch this way: He caressed her cheek.
Figuratively, things that touch lightly may caress: A breeze caressed the curtains.
