A humble request in poetry

Hat-tip to Dorothy Parker.
A humble request
A little place, that's all I ask,
A hut sat down upon the grass,
A little river, a little fire,
Perhaps a blanket when I tire,
A little car, a microwave,
A savings bank in which to save,
I don't need much, it's all I ask,
A little maid to do my tasks,
A small masseuse, a tad of wine,
A small jet-plane would be just fine.
A little kingdom (me the king),
It's really just a little thing;
I'm very simple, don't need much,
That's all I need besides my hut.
