Hi all! Thank you in advance for all your wisdom regarding my piece and for all the help you have provided others.

I have a Chinese scroll painting which looks to me to say around late Qing dynasty. I have no way of translating the seal or the poem! If anyone may help me identify the artist I would be so grateful! Thank you and many blessings...
