This is Just to Say

by William Carlos Williams


Original Language English

I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold

-- from The Collected Poems of William Carlos Williams: Volume I 1909-1939, by William Carlos Williams
