Can writing poetry help children emotionally in difficult times?

I think we all have the right to reflect on our experiences. Now, quite often I get the impression that children are sometimes not given that space. I think, if you don't have a chance to reflect on your experience, you up your levels of anxiety and stress. I think poetry gives you a space where you can stop the flow of experience and give yourself a chance to grab a bit of the things that have happened to you, put them on a page in a certain order and then sit and wonder about it. I think that probably enables you to deal with some of the things you worry about and wonder about and don't know about.
