Verse: how to start a poem about love

here is what
i recommend

start with the eyes
but be careful

they cannot
be green

they are jade
or emerald

something precious
but better

particularly
if inspired

like
a spring morning

glistening
with dew

that kind
of detail

you will discover
is very important

to let her know
they sparkle or smile

that is when
she knows

that you
notice things about her

and that
is when

you have
her full attention

the rest
is up to you.
