A geometric sequence $\left\{ a _ { n } \right\}$ satisfies $a _ { 2 } = \frac { 1 } { 2 }$ and $a _ { 5 } = \frac { 1 } { 6 }$. When $\sum _ { n = 1 } ^ { \infty } a _ { n } a _ { n + 1 } a _ { n + 2 } = \frac { q } { p }$, find the value of $p + q$. (Here, $p$ and $q$ are coprime natural numbers.) [4 points]
