William Carlos Williams

This Is Just to Say Overview

“This Is Just To Say” is a three-stanza imagist poem by American modernist poet William Carlos Williams. Williams considered the poem part of his early career and it was originally published in Collected Poems 1921-1931 in 1934. The poem resembles a note hastily written by the speaker and contains several hallmarks of imagist and modernist poetry, including precise, evocative imagery and unconventional form.
