Poem for April 8 - National Poetry Month
Just under the wire!
I also don't remember where I first read/heard this poem. It just strikes me as kind of absurd but poetic. But I guess you could say that about a lot of William Carlos Williams' poems.
This Is Just to Say
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
-- William Carlos Williams
