Actually, rhyming poetry is not unpopular at all, it just depends on the
format and how you construct the poem. Plenty of poetry students I know
still wrote rhyming poems, but the format they used was a little different
at times.
Though post-modern poetry does often lack rhyming, this is true, but it's
not completely out of mode. And trust me, poetry students do have to study
rhyming forms.

Hi, Chris and Jackie. Only recently did my husband and I learn that the
rhyming poetry seems to be out. One day I"ll have to try writing something
that doesn't rhyme. Not sure if it'd be easier or more difficult. Being in
bands as I have, I'm used to writing songs, and they've always rhymed and
songs are poetry, so...but we're not exactly in the poetry know, which is
why I dare to comment so little to poetry. Thank you both for your words and
compliments. They make me actually consider trying to get this one
published for Halloween somewhere. I'll be looking into that and totally let
you know if anything poems of it. I am glad you liked the feel and found it
informative, Jackie. Perhaps that's because even though you're not into
vampires this spoke, being written from the POV of the human servant of
Dracula. So it was put from a human's POV, making it perhaps a little less
foreign.
I like some vampires, vampire books, movies, ETC, and not others. But I do
have them featuring in my paranormal works as well as the fantasy ones, and
as they are popular as you said, I am hopeful that they'll get where they
need to go when the right person sees them. Right now it's actually getting
an agent's attention that's our trouble. LOL. I'd not even mind being
rejected if it meant one actually read something. *smiles* Sem I'm friends
with the monster that's under my bed.
I get along with the voices inside of my head.
