Default Transparent text on picture in Word

I have a picture I have placed into a word document. I now want to add text
over the picture that will appear transparent. Essentially the picture is a
scenery pciture and I want to add a poem that appears over the picture. How
can I do this?

Although you can place your text in a text box with No Line and No Fill, it
would make more sense to use the document body for your text and set the
wrapping on the picture to Behind Text.
