have you tried writing it yourself? perhaps you can make a poem up and then we can help you improve it :)
we are not here to do you homework as you’ll never learn anything that way!

ok - thats a good start :) Im gonna invite some people who are really good with poems and hopefully they can help you fine tune it.
I think the main problem is that some sentences are a little bit too long and not smooth running. Especially the last paragraph in the poem. Did you want it to all be ryhming couplets? eg:
twinkle, twinkle little UFO
how I wonder how you glow
(the last 2 words ryhme) coz it starts like that and slowly evaporates. Needs to hold the same form throughout the poem.
By the way - I think it is a cool poem and not stupid just needs some work :)

I like nykhan27’s suggestion. Simple and short always wins :D try rewriting it like that. Shorter sentences and ryhming couplets.

I think follow the way nykhan27 did it. Use her style in writing. Not copy. Shorten the sentences and keep it ryhming (so it flows smoothly)

Hey, just go with it !!!! I think it is perfect for a 7th grader. Its from the heart, and original… or is it? It tells a story, and much better than some poems that I have read. You will improve as you go along. Don’t expect more than you are able to give right now. Your teacher will be pleased>

Blessings………

*round of applause* that is a really good poem! well done. Greatly improved from the original and with a believable and good story line. I would have given you top marks for that. Esp since you managed to keep the ryhming couplets going and it was short and precise! well done :D
