Jule's comment is almost completely accurate, and I've been studying Plath extensively for some time now.
What I wanted to add was that the poem, written four days before her death, is a clear representation of herself and the children, of her children. As the the story goes, before she went through with the act she left each child a pitcher of milk and almost a whole loaf of bread each outside their door, do they wouldn't go hungry.
This is one of my favorites, there's almost too much to say. I'll complete this comment another day.

this poem explains the depression state in which sylvia was. i think she was an awsome writer.
