Comment or compliment on a poem is different than flattery.

Compliment: (according to Websters) 1 a: an expression of esteem, respect, affection, or admiration ; especially : an admiring remark b: formal and respectful recognition : honor
2plural : best wishes : regards <accept my compliments> <compliments of the season>


Flattery: 1 a: the act or practice of flattering b (1): something that flatters (2): insincere or excessive praise
2obsolete : a pleasing self-deception
