How to welcome someone on a stage to recite a poem in a flow

Don’t offer an introduction, just read the poem. A pre analysis of a poem can ruin the creation and taint what the reader will get out of the poem.

There are probably lots of ways to introduce a poem. Here’s what I’ve done. First, though, a classroom context is different. In a class you’re teaching, the poem is part of the lesson, and a much longer explanation may come before the poem. But if you’re reading to an audience outside the classroom, this is my suggestion: Say something short and simple about the poem. Sometimes just the title is enough. If the poem is by someone else, a very short description of the author is good. If there’s any reference in the poem that has to be explained for the poem to be understood, say so and explain it as clearly and briefly as you can. Try to keep the introduction under a minute and more like 30 seconds.
Don’t ;).
Begin with a breath, and then deliver your piece.
When I use to do public readings I would imagine I was sitting at a campfire reading for family and friends. I would start by telling them the title and what the inspiration was for writing it. I wouldn't give to much detail or there would be no reason to read the poem. I would give just enough for my listeners to understand the direction my work was taking them. I hope this was helpful.
Your own poetry, or someone else’s?
You don’t have to give an introduction at all, and sometimes it’s better not to. But whatever you do, be brief, and don’t try to describe the poem in advance. Respect the intelligence of the audience and their ears. If there’s some extraordinary circumstance of the composition of the poem, maybe relate that, but again, briefly. In no way should an introduction be longer than the poem. If you’re introducing a recital of some work by a fairly unknown poet, spend a little time telling who that person is/was, where she came from, what other poets she or he might be associated with, etc., but again, keep it brief. Make the meat of the matter be the poem or poems.
That depends on the poem. If it contains words or phrases that will not be immediately recognisable to the audience, then they should be briefly explained.
A long-winded introduction is to be avoided.
The poem should be able to “speak for itself”
You tell your audience three things:
That you’re about to read them a poem and its title
Who wrote it
What it’s about
You then launch into it after a suitable pause to get everyone ready to receive it - the length of this is about the same time as it takes to draw breath before speaking.
If you’re with a group of people you have some sort of relationship with you could also tell them why it’s important to you, what you like about it - or if you wrote it what prompted you to write it.
Explain it in one paragraph or less. Mention what inspired the poem, why you had to write it. They’re actually pretty simple, just don’t get nervous and start rambling. Get into the poem fairly quickly. A few hypothetical examples? Sure, I’d be happy to:
“Thank you. I appreciate the welcome.
“I am fairly politically minded, anybody else? Ok well, this poem is about the proposed bill to give tasers to teachers.
