Love poem in pentameter

I am impartial to pentameter
As a matter of restricting verse.
I would rather extol your many virtues
In my own words, unhindered by structure
Or rhyme. Given the time, I would tell you
How your eyes remind me of thunderstorms.
I could tell you how I feel every line
And callous and muscle in your perfect
Hands, and your voice is a rainstorm on a
Tin roof. I’d tell you about the smell of rain
In the desert and the early morning
Sunrise blooming across the open sky.
