Likes And Dislikes

This world is fair. God help people make opposing views so that they balance each other. Else, one lopsided view point can just obliterate the other.

I make postings of Chinese poems in two separate Facebook pages -

"我们欣赏唐诗和宋词"

and

"悠悠古今情"

The reason I do it this way is that while the Tang and Song poems appeal to most people because they could arouse the emotions of its readers via certain set pattern, so easier for most readers to grasp the rhyming, the other periods also exhibit patterns of a different kind, albeit a little more difficult to understand, especially when the author used classical Chinese.

Here lies the difficulties. Which type of rhyming do you like? We then ask the question, "what were the students taught in class". My studies show that even though both types of poems were taught in school, the emphasis was on the Tang and Song period. This finding appears to coincide with the number of 'like' to the two sites of mind, even though both sites were launched on almost the date. The Tang and Song poem "like" out number the other period by 3 times.
