It means that you are good at memorizing things and you are good at spelling . In addition you have a large vocabulary and are good at recognizing patterns.
Anything that you learn helps you to learn other things better! When you memorize poetry, you learn how to memorize, and that does help you memorize other things better.
The objective for teaching poetry is to teach children how to rhyme and to teach them proper foundation vocabulary that is used in poetry. It also can help children learn about popular historical poets.

Yes. A large vocabulary is indicative of high intelligence. This is not to say that a large vocabulary increases your intelligence; rather, it's to say that a high intelligence is what enables you to acquire a large vocabulary. Hence the correlation between vocabulary and IQ. Some people try to artificially inflate their IQs by memorizing lists of esoteric words; however, this has very little, if any, positive effect on increasing their intelligence. As you acquire more and more words, the differences in word meanings become more and more subtle (e.g. connive and collude, although similar, have a shade of difference in their meanings); the ability to distinguish between shades of meaning in words requires a keen intellect. People who try to artificially expand their vocabulary size end up misusing the words they've memorized because they simply lack the intelligence to grasp the subtelties of language.
