This is just to say...

"This Is Just To Say" is a poem written by William Carlos Williams. I first heard it when I was listening to This American Life. It has been said it is one of the most reinvented poems. Considering that everyone else has taken a crack at it I figured I would. Here's my version:

This is just to say...

I know you gave me fair warning
But I ate your precious fruit
They were rosy red flushed against the greenery
So loud was my first bite that it reverberated through your garden
And it was good.
