This poem came up at Ragdale, then [livejournal.com profile] freakysparks wrote a lovely cookie version of it in her journal, and then today I stood over the sink in the kitchen and ate delicious cold sweet plums. I am dearly in love with plums this summer, in general. So, the rule of 3 dictates I must report this trend.

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
