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
This is one of my favorite poems. I came across it in my 9th Grade English class. It was posted on her bulletin board. This poem inspired one of mine (I Couldn't Help Myself) and I think it is really clever, simple and unique.
