I am no poet, to apologize for a few stolen plums. My words mean next to nothing. But you should know I pruned the roses and planted a peach tree in the yard.
This post was written in response to the Trifecta Writing Challenge weekend prompt:
Write a letter of apology in exactly 33 words. Addresses, salutations, closings, etc. (should you wish to include them) do not count in the 33 words.
I do love that poem. And your letter in its spirit.

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
