A well placed compliment
can serve as the condiment
the breath mint
for a new relationship
the first scent
can make the dent
in someone's defenses
thaw their senses
a well placed compliment
will get your foot in the door
only so far

I would like to translate this poem
Compliments are often taken with a grain or two thousand by women these days. In my experience, men soak them up like a sponge soaks up water and get rather swollen headed about them.
