Answer:

A). Casual note left on the kitchen table.

Step-by-step explanation:

'This Is Just to Say' is a popular 1934 poem authored by William Carlos Williams is categorized as a satirical poem.

As per the question, the poem can function as a 'casual note left on the kitchen table' which was actually written by Williams as a 'note to his wife that he placed on the refrigerator door' to ask forgiveness as he ate the last apple present in the fridge. It satirically ridicules the human tendency of snatching someone else's right(represented through plum which could symbolize the forbidden fruit) and then atoning for it. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
