Reading and writing poems is a very personal experience. Poets use language as a way of expressing their feelings. Poets can describe the of nature, a person, a dream or a memorable event. Most people have tried writing poems some time. For children, it's a good way to enjoy language and have fun with words as well as to themselves.
But teachers and psychologists (心理学家) have another use for poems as a form of therapy (疗法) to help with problems. Writing poems can help deal with change in their lives, death or feelings of sadness or serious disease. By writing down your feelings, you can learn to understand yourself than before.
Poems might be a way of telling someone when you don't feel able to talk about it face to face. Poems written as therapy can be funny too, as laughter is also considered to be very good for illness.
Students at a special school in England read and write poems every day. Some of the poems that write are very good, but their reason for writing is not just to be creative. All of them have some mental and problems. But by writing poems, students are growing in self-confidence. The poems provide a channel for them to communicate with the world and express their feelings. They help them to find out and work out their problems and to develop a positive attitude to life.
