h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A660034

Discusses the goals of poetry therapy and the steps of the bibliotherapeutic process. Is meant to provide an introduction to poetry therapy and hopefully spark interest in a new and growing field. I hope someone will be as inspired by this entry as I have been by the course I'm taking. Please consider polishing it up a bit and giving it a special place in the Guide.

This is a nice entry. The style is slightly unusual, with the sections with lines in between, the use of italics, the pictures, and stuff like that. It makes it easier to read, though.
Is poetry therapy common? What is it mainly used for? Can you give other links to organisations in various countries?

Nightshade's recommendation of including links to organizations in various countries was very good, but unfortunately I can't seem to find any. If you happen to know of any poetry therapy organizations in countries other than the United States please email them to [email protected]

I like this too.

I see that you say the poems should not have a 'sing-song' rhythm to them. Is there any specific reason for this? Is there no room for limericks or nonesense poems such as those by Lear?
Just a few random thoughts

Have you read the entry on Beat Poetry?

Also, William Carlos Williams wrote, "It is difficult/to get the news from poems/yet men die miserably every day/for lack/of what is found there."

That might be something you might like to use as an epigraph.

This is a very interesting entry. I don't actually have anything to say, I just wanted to throw in my cry of approval.
