I think that poetry still remains popular after many centuries because it is a great way of expressing yourself. The role poetry plays in my life is a very small one. I rarely hear or read poetry unless it's in the form of song lyrics. I also think that the most popular form of poetry is in song lyrics.
I think think the reason people love poetry so much is because it's a convenient form of entertainment and it comes in many different styles and forms. I personally enjoy poetry in the form of song lyrics because they are usually catchy and meaningful.
The poem Jack and Jill was written by George Freeland in 1697. I still remember this poems over the ages because it has a lot of rhyming and is a very common poem.

Hi Hendogga!
We seem to have quite similar views on poetry and it seems poetry has a similar effect on both of our lives. I wassurprised when I saw you picked Jack and Jill as your poem because I remember that poem quite strongly but would never have thought of that when writing last weeks blog. Good post by the way.
Have a good exeat,
from Todd.
