Thank you for contacting Mearto. This is a tall famille rose Chinese vase.
The base has a Qianlong period (1736-1795) six-character zhuanshu (seal script) mark. I have included a link below to reign seals.
Chinese reign marks are often apocryphal, used as reverence to an earlier emperor and admiration for the art that was created then.
Jingdezhen is known as the "Porcelain Capital" because it has been producing Chinese ceramics for at least 1,000 years, and for much of that period Jingdezhen porcelain was the most important and finest quality in China.
Vases like these are valuable but prices range slightly. I have included links below to similar items, with hammer prices.
The Fair Market Value of this item is between $1000 and $1500.

A friend of mine reads calligraphy and he just made a translation of your poem for me:) He wrote:
The poem in my reading and rough translation,
春光明媚
艶盡芳
姐妹名園
試睨妝
談到会心
情亦處
吟詩作画
趣味首
The spring is bright and charming with full of fragrances,
The sisters in the famous garden try their makeups and costumes
They understand each other well
They are in a good mood
Recital of poetry and painting
With delight
Seal,
世 - Shì
寧 - Nín
