COFFEE BOWL WITH PLUMS
(By N. Michelle Tully)

"THIS IS JUST TO SAY"
(by 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.
This is a beautiful painting ... and the poem accompanies it perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kate, the picture and the poem go together beutifully.
ReplyDeleteOops...I ate all the cherries last night. They were good and cold too!
