Three Make a Crowd

If you nod
To my rose,
How easy it is for me
To plough the earth
And dot it all over
With a multitude...

If you consent
To live with me,
How happy
I shall be to build
A palace in mid-air
Above my thatched roof...

If only you wish
To listen to my sonnet,
How easy it is for me
To compose an epic
Of million couplets
And recite it for you
Under a moon-lit sky,
When me and you
Make a company
And the moon a crowd.
