Eggplant Eyes, A Short Silly Poem

So "The Cool Kids Writing Club" (that's what I call it) works like this: Russell supplies a weekly phrase, and we each write a thing.

The phrase: Just don't tell him his eyes look like eggplants.

My poem:

Words of Wisdom for Creating a Romantic Moment

You can tell him he is your darling peach
You can tell him he is the apple of your eye
You can tell him he's the cream in your coffee
Just don't tell him his eyes look like eggplants

You can say he's your bread and butter
You can say he's your toast and jam
You can say he's your pina colada
But nobody wants to be compared to eggplant

What happens if you say he's better than chocolate?
What will he think if you choose him over cake?
What if you forget about your sugar addiction for a second?
I think he'll like it and think you're sweet. Unless you call him an eggplant.

You can say he's the peanut to your butter
You can tell him he's the star to your burst
You can let him know he's the M to your M and the Best to your Friend
But whatever you do, don't say he's the egg to your plant!
