The plums were so thick on the trees this year that their weight broke a branch off. Too bad we don't eat them. They're thick on the ground too. I've been scooping them up with a dust pan to dump in the garbage.

I don't suppose you remember this poem from Miss Brace's English class... Your picture brought it to mind...
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
Rondi, I would never have thought of that little poem again had you not posted it here. Funny, I had just been thinking of Miss Brace after Patty's posting of Robert Frost.
