This Is Just To Say Analysis

Author: poem of William Carlos Williams Type: poem Views: 25

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 am not sure what this poem means, though I do see the Adam and Eve analysis lying in the words. it raises many questions of what this truely is about, or is it really just that he took the plums and left a poetic note apologizing?

It also has a allusion to the plums being a forbidden fruit just like the story "Adam and Eve." The entire poem is a apology that is written with insincerity.

.: :.

This poem is written in a tantalizing manner. Like from a lover to a lover. Not wife, but lover. Its teasing, the author knew it shouldn't be done but did it anyway. It has a Rhett Butler feel and everyone can understand being teased by lovers.

The poem is a note of forgiveness, he knew it was wrong but he took them anyway. When you ask someone "Forgive Me" it changes the argument and puts it on the 'forgiver', and what they do is on them.
