It's really very easy,
Quite simple if you try—
Just take the words and put them
Over the other side.

!Or if you're feeling racy!
!And want to light a spark!
!Punctuate each sentence!
!With an exclamation mark!

Use some cliche metaphors
For love— a rose might work.
Something someone else has used,
Just anything you've heard.

Enjambent is your greatest

Friend

It makes you look so smart.

Go show it off to all your
  friends

Tell them that it's 'art'.

You might then put a word in
That doesn't fit the line
Or correlate to rhyme scheme
It works every

Vegetable.
