Andrea Dietrich Poet Rhyme

It's a Wonderful Pie

It’s a wonderful pie; can you see it?
That sweet lattice top apple pie.
Cinnamon oozes from slits in its crust.
It’s the favorite of my guy.

It’s a wonderful pie; can you smell it?
Its fragrance is pumpkin and spice.
The one that my grandma always would make
for us kids, both naughty and nice!

It’s a wonderful pie. Can you feel it?
The lusciousness of the merengue
that melts on your tongue is such a delight.
There’s enough here for the whole gang!

It’s a wonderful pie; can you taste it?
So rich it is named a cheesecake!
This one that I made with caramel swirls
is the one I most wanted to bake.

Written Dec. 2018 but never got entered in time for the Punny Pies contest

Matthew Anish December 25, 2018 at 12:04 PM Had some lemon meringue pie out the other day so I understand the feeling behind this poem. I really don't bake but remember the poem by J.R.R. Tolkien about a baker. Please save a slice for me! Peace & Love Matthew Anish
