This Is Just To Say...

William Carlos Williams died onMarch 4, 1963. In his memory, I have reprinted his poem and then 3 of my own "tributes" in his memory. No disrespect intended-I love his plum poem!

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

**************************** 

I have drunk

the wine

that was in

the fridge

and which

you were probably

saving

for dinner

Forgive me

it was there

and I'm

an alcoholic

****************************************

I have copied

the term paper

that was on

your computer

and which

you were probably

going to turn in

tomorrow

Forgive me

you're so smart

and I need

an A

****************************************

I have stolen

the poem

that you posted on

your blog

and which

you were probably

saving

for publication

Forgive me

you're so creative

and have

no copyrights
