Another thought I didn't elaborate before i forgot the underlying idea. Looks like I noted it in December 2007.

"poetry memorability by rhyming adjectives"

Trying to unpick it:

Can't as easily rhyme adjectives in English because they must precede the noun, so can only be rhymed when not followed by a noun (or in enjambement, or internally).

So, easier to rhyme adjectives in other languages.

But why did I say that adjectives in particular aid memorability? If only I'd noted the example I had in mind...
