There is considerable evidence that writing or reading poetry can be beneficial for health and wellbeing, for a variety of reasons from simply the distraction of the process itself, to a way to release emotion. The University of Plymouth, in conjunction with Nottingham Trent University, were awarded funding by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council to develop a project to encouraging the writing, sharing, publication and discussion of poetry, to benefit the wellbeing of people across the world.
There are many poems on the site, and I have browsed them regularly. I have reproduced just one example below.
Love Letter by Paula Moore
This is a love letter to everyone who did not remodel the bathroom, learn a new language, or write a book during the pandemic.
To everyone who wants to hold on to the lessons learned but is just trying to hold it together.
To everyone who met the loneliness and loss sometimes with grace and sometimes by binge-watching Tiger King
