By Serena Price


Poems of comfort are recognized as a form of poetry that is lyrically expressed with the objective of offering condolences for people in adversities. They say that words are powerful and with their power, they can inspire change in moods, behaviour, and attitudes. Basically, these poetic expressions are meant to in some way influence decisions and help change situations.

Over the years, poetry has significantly grown popular and with its evolution, generations after generations have been able to advance this craft. A craft that was previously only defined as a flow of words that rhyme is now advanced to a better state whereby poetic expressions are more than rhyming but the coded message in the lyrical content.

Among its many objectives is usually the ability to offer encouragement to people that are hopeless and think they have no reason to live. For such people, finding purpose in life is difficult but with inspiring words that touch their souls they can be influenced to change their perspectives and begin getting their lives back. It is by comforting these individuals that they get to be joyful again.

By recollecting on past events, majority of people have a tendency to realize the far they have come in terms of developing and empowering themselves. This realization is very critical as people are able to see what they have achieved and the dreams that they should continue pursuing. This is basically a reality check on the potential life holds and the contribution one has to make to achieve what they want.

Usually, people in diverse locations across the world face different adversities and with some having people to comfort them, there are those that are all by themselves and do not have a shoulder to cry on.

Apart from being comforting, they also are entertaining which make them presentable in different occasions only that the writer and presenter ought to change the theme in order to suite the occasion.
