Poetry Wednesday: Cookie Monster, Poet



Cookie Monster, via Sesame Street, tweeted the following poem:

This is just to say
Me have eaten
the cookies
that were in the cookie jar

and which
you were probably
saving
for snack time

Forgive me
they were so delicious
and om nom nom

Me love poetry... and cookies!


You may recognize its inspiration: "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


Thanks, Cookie Monster!
