My Favorite Poem

Okay, last post of the day, I promise. I read A LOT of poems in college (English major), and for some reason, out of all the poems I had to read, this is the one I would say is my favorite. It runs through my head a lot. Like a song from the radio.

This Is Just To Say

William Carlos Williams

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
