PLUMS


i've taken a long siesta from blogging due to teaching, writing newsletters, failing to write letters, scribbling thank yous, making lists, and all that jazz.

a few notes:

God is good.

i am still in lithuania.

i will be back in the states soon.

i plan to write all summer long.

this blog shall be resurrected and revamped
during that summer of writing.

for now, all i really wanted to say is that plums were on sale today in Iki, my friendly lithuanian grocery/market, and it made me think of this william carlos williams poem titled "this is just to say":


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


have a sweet, plums-on-sale sort of friday.
