But teachers and psychologists(心理学家)have found another use for poetry as a form of therapy(治疗) to help people with problems.Writing poetry can help people deal with changes in their lives,death or feelings of sadness,drug or alcohol problems or serious illness.By writing down your feelings,you can learn to understand yourself better and give yourself a voice if you feel you are being ignored. The power of poetry
Reading and writing poetry is a very personal experience.Poets use language as a way of expressing their feelings,whether positive ones of love,happiness and hope,or negative feelings like anger and fear.
Poems can describe the beauty of nature,a person,a dream or a memorable (值得纪念的) event.Most people have tried writing poetry at some time,for example at school.For children,it is a good way to explore language
and

fun
with words as well as to express themselves.
A poem might be a way of telling someone something when you do not feel able to talk about it face to face.And just because people are ill or having difficulties in their lives,it doesn't mean they have lost their sense of humour.Poems written as therapy can be funny too,as laughter is also considered to be very good medicine.
