Ballad Poems Losing Popularity

By looking at the Stats of this blog, I could find that many people come here while searching about ballad poems. To know about it, I would like you to read this entry from this blog. What is confusing to me is that why there are no Ballad poems are written any more in our time. Maybe, it is not the time of poetry as most people are interested about only novels. I wish that people can get back their passion of reading poetry and again ballad poems will be written in large numbers around the world. I really wish that.
