This Is Just To Say

I decided to read this poem because the title reminded me of the song "Say What You Need to Say" by John Mayer which I really like.
Because I was in the mood of the John Mayer song before starting this poem, I was surprised by the mischievousness of the poem.
Reading the poem a second time, I wondered if the plums stood for something, if the poem had a deep philosophical meaning behind it.
The plums, even though they are only mentioned once, are the central topic of this poem. The speaker was hungry and ate some delicious, sweet and cold plums but now the person who was saving them no longer gets to enjoy one of the plums he was saving. How sad..
The short, choppy lines, (I googled and found out when an author interrupts a thought with a line break its called an enjambment. Authors do this to show the importance of the ideas trying to be shared.) show how bad the speaker feels. He feels guilty for eating all the plums, and is possibly at a loss for words in how to apologize.
The lack of punctuation show that the speaker was in a hurry. Maybe he didn't have enough time to make himself breakfast and so he grabbed the plums because they were quick and easy.
