Picnic for One

[Magpie]

Hi this caught me off guard when I read it through first time, and the last line was not expected and therefore had a bigger effect. In that aspect it is very well thought out, I'm not usually a fan of repeating lines but in this instance it works and makes it more poignant. It's simplicity is very effective and gives a message that it's the simple that people do together that makes them fall in love with each other and it's the simple things that are the most important. Also because of the last line it demands to be read again but with a different viewpoint and then things take on more meaning, especially the 2nd stanza.
The only thing that tripped me up was the rhyme in the 2nd stanza, it just threw me off beat slightly but apart from that I thought it was a good efficient poem.
Cheers
