  Treat my answer as what it is - hearsay - but the way I remember reading about it being explained, there is indeed sign-language poetry, and gestures having similar or complimentary movements were considered rhyming, which I guess also makes intuitive sense.

    Yep, and there is sign language poetry in lots of different sign languages!

    It’s a beautiful and unique artform IMO

  What is ballet, if not poetry for the deaf?
