Humans love recognizable patterns and symmetry. Rhymes sound alike, and when coupled with meter, help make the words “stick” in our memory. We also like artificial things that are easily distinguishable from the chaos and entropy of the natural world. We enjoy our feeble attempts at imposing order.

Well said. It seems to all be about satisfying our expectations.
Or when expectations are subverted but then satisfied in a different way (jokes, puns, etc).
But basically confirmation of our pattern matching being right.
1,2,3,4… I will now say more.
5,6,7,8… I will not hesitate.
Satisfying
1,2,3,4… I will now say more.
5,6,7,8… I will not delay.
Frustrating
