Melinda Kensington Alworthy Jones

Missing image

Melinda Kensington Alworthy Jones

Wrapped by Dior and Chanel’s fine colognes

Sipping her Perrier at half past three,

Playfully plopped on her soft suede settee.

Luscious full lips and that platinum hair,

Precar’ously perched, with one shoulder bare.

Long legs pulled up and ankles crossed neatly,

A coy, subtle smile, she winks quite discreetly.


She huskily speaks, a soft, sensual sound.

I stupidly stare, as if I’m spellbound.

A sip and a stretch and then she unwinds

A moronic man, male thoughts fill my mind.


A knowing look and a bare-shoulder shrug,

Then I’m embraced with a mind-melting hug.

A kiss on her hand blown my direction,

This stupid-faced guy has joined her collection.


Melinda Kensington Alworthy Jones,

Whispers to me in those soft, subtle tones,

"Meet me at ten, hun, outside the back door,

For we have tumultuous things to explore."

Author notes

As long as Reni keeps sending me sketches, I'll keep trying to write about them. She's pretty diverse so it's always a challenge.

    I find it remarkable that Renelle did this with a pencil.

    Ahem, Paul. Is this the voice of experience here, sure looks like you know of what you speak

    This is a delightful poem and obviously a delightful young woman. You've done yourself and the picture justice with this lighthearted playful piece (no pun intended... honest)

    And hey, that's quite a moniker you gave her. Interesting name.

    Thanks for sharing Reni's paintings with us and for your wonderful interpretations with poetry

    Wow, what a picture. I am sure she is quite a woman. She does have that air of playfulness about her. I thoroughly enjoyed your poem.

    Wonderful rhythm and rhyme in these lines - makes a wonderful one to read out loud. Great flow and was writtten just for the picture, a great write. Wonderful vivid images of the girl from your words, never mind the lovely picture.

    This poem perfectly captures the artwork. Amazing. Truly amazing. Imagery..well...it's inspired by an actual image, so I guess that one's a little obvious, but the words themselves are an excellent compliment to a wonderful piece of art.

    I didn't know you had thoughts like this Mr. K (winks) I must have misread it. I know you don't get stupid-faced..nah.

    ahaha. This is so unlike you, but I like it.
    It follows so amazingly. You're truly amazing, Paul!
    I'm glad that sketch inspired you, and guess what: I'll keep drawing and drawing and drawing so you can entertain me with these amazing poems.

    Rhyming Has Rhythm

    Good job on the rhyme patterns here, I could see this was definitely well put together, and not just tacked on your wall like most of the poems I read. I also enjoyed your choice of name, and everything you wrote fit the picture in question quite nicely. Bravo!

    The flow and visuals are so wonderful. You take the sketch to even greater heights. This poem is a perfect accompaniment for it. The artist in both of you is incredible.

    Captivating

    I like this poem a lot, it has a sophstication about it, trying to make love to my mind with your words, that is a difficult quality to find in a poet. What i also like about this feeling, this poem is it made me feel like i was watching a calvin kline advert in a museum (not making sense?) Im watching these words fly at me in an arty form yet i get them, i understand them at the same time im in an environment where they dont belong, sitting in my room, watching al murray in my boxers... i enjoyed this poem very much, thank you for writing it.

    But that's the whole thing about life in general Paul...

    Being able to take on a challenge and striving for more to come. Keep penning and tell the missus I said hello
