eyes open, wide awake
poetry placed like a slice of Cake
before the hungry minds and pads
of salivating undergrads
Reading Gaol unlocked, now teach us
how best to tackle On Home Beaches
critiques momentarily confused, bereft
while pondering Why Brownlee Left
literary tools in a Disused Shed
work on Still Life, not yet dead
journey Into My Own with frost
while remembering the lives, in Antarctica, lost
sonnet, villanelle, metaphor, rhyme
poetry, in a word, sublime!

Welcome to AllPoetry!
This is a lovely poem, and a great start
I am going to agree with Stegofreak about the punctuation
Apart from that, this is wonderfully written - well done! 
I hope that you come to enjoy this site as much as I do, and in the meantime if you have any questions at all please don't hesitate to ask me!!
Best of luck with your future writing,

I think someone needs to put in some capital letters and possibly some punctuation.
Other than that it's a nice poem, though the second to last line seems a bit elongated.
