The Passionate Sheepheard to his Love - Christopher Marlowe

I swear, I've heard this poem somewhere before, and for some reason I think it was a song. Have they made this poem into a song?

Either way I still love this poem. It takes me back to nature and innocence. And it's of course the ultimate pick-up for a girl. I'm not going to lie, I still hate sappy poems like this one. Talk is cheap Mr. Marlowe. I just hate how he thinks that by saying all this stuff, he'll get the girl. Who does he think he is? I mean it's fine that he wants to get her all this nice stuff, but that's so buying her off. I guess women allowed themselves to be bought like this in past days? I suppose they liked this type of flattery? I don't know...I mean if Marlowe had read this poem to me, I probably would have had a small sense of flattery inside, but I'd play hard to get. Just because he can write a few cute words for me doesn't show anything, especially if this is infatuation or young love. I'd need to hear something like this maybe 2 years or so after being together, after a lot of trials and tribulations to really appreciate it, because I now know that this kind of stuff is only said when people first fall in love. But what happens later?

It all just seems to simple for me...he chose the things you know a girl would love...that you know her heart would melt over. He chose all the easy stuff. Get creative Marlowe. These are all just things.

The poem sounds nice, and flows nice. I really don't care for the Old English way of spelling...it just confuses me and distresses me more. But once you get past that, the poem itself sounds nice. It's just too...cliche. But I'm assuming at that time, they didn't have anything else for comparison, so it couldn't have been cliche.
