"This is just to say"

"This is just to say" 

In the style of William Carlos Williams

I. 

So much depends
upon tomorrow's 
breakfast

sweet, cold plums 
that I couldn't 
imagine
ever losing. 

I've hidden them 
in the icebox

II. 

This is just
to say
I will not
be near you
You are
a great 
annoyance
and
stole my
breakfast 
plums
