My teacher assigned us to write a poem about someone we know well and we have to describe what they look like and their qualities. So I chose to do mine on Marijuana in the form of a person. Here's what i got so far so you can see the ryme scheme:
There is a woman, dressed in green and brown
When she is around, noone wears a frown
Her head is covered with little red hairs
Sometimes its purple, but noone really cares
If any of you can give me some more couplets, I'd really apprieciate it. It has to be about a person though, so make it something that would describe a person, but still describe weed too.

A word of advice: DO NOT USE RHYMED COUPLETS. They make a poem sound silly, childish and banal unless you can do it so well that you hardly notice the couplets rhyme. In your case, it sounds bad. That is not a slam, I'm not putting you down, rhymed couplets are probably the most difficult thing to pull off...so unless you're a very experienced poet, stay away from them unless you're just practicing.
Next piece of advice, if you have to write about a "person" and you want to write about Marijuana, then for goodness sake, write about Mary Jane! Your teacher will know who Mary Jane is and you'll get extra credit for using a person's name (personification) in compliance with the tasking, while actually writing about an inanimate object (Marijuana).
If you feel the need to rhyme, then do a half or slant rhyme where every other line rhymes (abcb). It will delay the rhyme and make your poem sound far more mature.
good luck

Why not pick a real person?
Put down the spliff for a minute or two and write your poem about someone, then you can go back to smoking and not giving a crap about anything.

Her body is thick, so full of life
Even when I'm sick, she'll still sacrifice
Her beauty for my pleasure
Her courage for my desire
My will to always have her
And set her on fire
She burns to ashes
As I breath in her soul
Her scent unlike any
Without her I am cold.
Good luck man

This lady is making us all high
by her touch we think we can fly
Noone ever wants to get away
yet we must, everyone say
I hope she stops by, again soon
I don't want to wait for the next full moon
Well, she's not mine, but also not yours
being around, everybody she cures
hope i helped, although it's quite obvious(?)
i'm sorry, i like her aswell =)

I love it, it's completely original...it reminds me of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds (same thought process...)
"Noone" is "no one"

she sits in a pipe
wrapped up in paper
waiting on light
no one could hate her
she's never alone
allways a clone
seeds of the past
will make her last

Why go to high school when you can go to school high?
