Este foi o recado que a senhora que me ajuda a manter a casa limpa e arrumada deixou na porta do meu frigorífico.

This Is Just To Say
by William Carlos Williams

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.

(1962)
