(Just because I've been eating them........ )
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

I posted about this WCW poem back in April -- here's the link. A friend reminded me, in the comments, about the WCW parodies of this particular poem -- you might want to check them out (for fun).
This is one of my favourite poems of all time- though I think it's deliciously sinister.
I, too, wrote about this poem a while back. I mashed it up with a couple other poems. If you're interested, you can check it out here.
That is the perfect poem for a hot summer day!
