Abstract
As a rhetorical and aesthetic approach, description and descriptive expression are used in children poetry, and different types of their forms are used by children poets. Utilizing the creative potential of this form of expression, the children
poets strengthen the rhetorical and artistic dimension of their works, and easily access the main goals of children poetry: the development of the children's look into the environment, their mental and personality development, the strengthening of their imagination, the stylization of their emotions and deepening their thoughts. The importance, function and capabilities of poetic description and its rhetorical importance in children poetry, as well as the quality of its impact on a child, as an audience, are initially described in present study, and then, the forms and types of descriptions and descriptive expressions which are used frequently under the titles of "Subjective description", "objective description", "visual description" and "narrative description" in the works of eight poets of child and adolescence have been reviewed and analyzed along with evidences of each. In addition to such analysis, the extent and the quality of the effects of each of these types has been assessed on juvenile audiences. Precise and immediate observation has been considered as the origin of the "objective description" and its ultimate aim is to represent the material and objective aspects of the phenomena. The "subjective description" has been evaluated as the result of the poet's use of objective affairs to express
his/her mind, emotions and thoughts; and the "visual description" is defined as description based on imagination with a clear aesthetic reliability, an finally, the " narrative description" is a kind of description formed by the poetic and allegorical narration of the poet on the basis of his humanization.
