Literature class has thought me one important thing: If you think you made good poems in highschool when you were going all emo about your love life(this doesn't apply to me though), THINK AGAIN. There is more to it than just chaining a couple of rhyming words and sentimental phrases. Get Pulan as your teacher and you'll know why.
Anywho, here are my cracks on making a "proper" poem as per training in Lit 14:
Riddles of a Thirsty Man
An oasis of a thousand minute fountains
An effervescent lake at eventide
And on its surface a frozen sliver of moonlight
As cold as a dew drop on a blade of grass
As sweet as when your love is in sight
A black sea within a glass you can hold
Whose sweet waters glow red against the light
Oh what refreshing joy it is to have untold
To drink Winter's sable-scarlet nectar on a summers night
If you got the meaning of that I'll give you a cookie :D

Science Transcendent
Why does the World tread the Sun’s path
‘round through day and night?
Or the Moon cling to the Earth’s shadow
in eternal starlight?
Why does the Salmon suffer the frozen rage
unforgiving?
Of the lonely River that runs to the Sea
unending?
What gives Stone the strength to endure
against the endless Time?
Or the Vine to escape the Earthen clutch
and climb?
What sculpts the lowly Carbon, black
and unflattering?
And make a crystal Diamond, brilliant
And glittering?
In God’s wisdom known, what in Man’s hidden;
the Truth in all that has been said before
What Science’ knowledge has yet to prove;
The Universe is bound and swayed by Love
just allusions and metaphorical images.
