This is Just to Say...

Have you heard of "This is just to say" poems? They are becoming increasingly popular on the Web. It all started with Williams Carlos Williams who wrote the following:

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
Copyright © 1962 by William Carlos Williams.

So the poems begs the question. Is the author really sorry? Here are few others I found. I want to write one of my own. Please if you find any post them here for me.
