His works were certainly poetical. They had a "mood" about them, one of nostalgia or of an autumn evening. His shorts were almost always in some sleepy midwestern town, and you could almost hear the laughter of children playing in the leaves outside.
Poul Anderson is the only other scifi author to do a "mood" so well, and he wrote primarily novels, not shorts, and if anything, his were more somber then reflective.
"There will come soft rains" is probably one of the most poetical of Bradbury's shorts. He actually based it on a poem of the same name.

The poet prefers a man of deed because actions speak louder than words. He values someone who takes action and accomplishes things rather than just talking about them. This person is seen as more genuine and reliable.
Those who write poetry are the ones who believe they see the world differently. Poetry is often abstract and a reflection of the author's mind. Many poets are also simply artists who instead of making art through paints, pencils and sculpture, create art through the sounds of words. Some words are prettier/uglier/darker/more intense than others, so putting them together in a certain fashion creates art.
A person who recites poems but is not the original author is commonly referred to as a "poetry reciter" or a "poetry performer."
