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

Yes, we talked about it during my first term at university, in some introduction class for poetry reading I think. Immediately fell in love with it!

It's awesome, isn't it? Like like William Carlos William's work in general and this work in particular. It contains so much brilliance...
