Plum poem table cloth

I usually leave the craft blogs to my better half, but poco-cocoa seems to be just as much food blog as craft/home blog. Particularly cool, I thought, was Crystal's tablecloth, embroidered with "This Is Just To Say," by William Carlos Williams. Most of you are probably familiar with the poem, perhaps Williams' most famous, about a couple of plums and an icebox. If not, it's printed in its entirety (all 12 lines) over at poco-cocoa. I've always been fond of WCW's simplicity, and I think it's especially pertinent as it applies to food. Also, I like the idea of keeping this poem around in the kitchen or at the table. It's a cool project, indeed.
