My First and Last Poem

What is a poem and how do you write one?
If I ramble and rant, may a poem be the outcome?
Should it rhyme and make sense, or be witty or fun?
And how does one know when a stanza is done?

Who is a poet and how do you spot one?
Is she artsy and happy, or moody and solemn?
Does she speak in hyperbole, speech littered with puns?
And how does she know when her poem is done?
