Picnic delight, Flies bite. Sunny spot, Too hot. Ants munch. Your lunch, Forgot chairs, Who cares. Sit on ground, Prickles found. Clouds form, Not warm. Rain you get, Very wet. Call Rover, Picnic over.

Fantastic SV - the love/hate relationship with the picnic expressed beautifully :)

I actually wrote this early hours of the day we planned to have a picnic. It warded off the evil picnic spirits and we had a great time at a big theme park near where we live. Thanks for your comment and sorry for the delay in responding.

I like the simplicity of this yet it does perfectly capture nearly every picnic I have ever had :) Pristine and precise. Adorable.
