    THIS IS JUST TO SAY


    I have eaten
    the plums
    that were in
    the icebox
    and which
    you probably
    saving
    for breakfast

    Forgive me
    They were delicious
    So sweet
    And so cold
    William Carlos Williams belongs to a small group of American poets who call themselves the
