I believe it to be. Although, I don't read very much poetry. I think it's something everyone should have a bash at at some point.

It's particularly important, i think, for youngsters. When we learn to read, we often utilise rhyming structures, patterns and rythms to make it easier to learn (Dr Seuss). There seems to be a natural inclination to make language flow in that way.
