"Will You Please"

The crickets chirp
and the flowers grow.
The birds sing
and the rivers flow.

The sun shines
and the children play.
But am I happy?
I say thee nay.

For there is something
I am in need of,
and this something
is your sweet love.

And so this question
I ask of thee:
Will you please
Go with me?
