William Carlos Williams's "This is Just to Say"

I followed a link to William Carlos Williams's poem "This is Just to Say" this morning, and it froze me in my tracks. So much in just 12 lines. I want a plum.

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
