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

Why I chose this poem:
It was one of my favorite poems to teach as a Middle School English teacher. We talked about tone, and word choice, and if the author of the poem was really sorry or not. We have all been this person in one situation or another - and I probably would have eaten the plums too, and hoped by husband would forgive me.
