QUAINTRELLE: STANDING THE TEST OF TIME by Roopa Dudley
I composed this poem after I came across this strange word "Quaintrelle". I was intrigued, delighted and tickled pink when I googled the definition (below). So I composed a poem (I don't consider myself to be a poet but a painter so please do keep that in mind when reading the poem).
"Quaintrelle": A woman who emphasizes a life of passion expressed through personal style, leisurely pastimes, charm and cultivation of life's pleasure.
There lived a lady that you may know
Whose name I cannot tell
She lived a life most dream about
So I call her Quaintrelle
She loved to indulge in lavish style
Much like a Southern Belle
With a lust for life and an untamed heart
Like a glamorous Quaintrelle
She liked to paint and she liked to dance
And could speak four languages well
She liked to cook in wine and dine
In the style of Quaintrelle
She had nerves of steel and a heart of gold
Killer looks that made men swell
She lived for love, for chess and art
An amorous Quaintrelle!
