A Piece Of Pie
By
Bud Lemire
I was in the store the other day and saw a piece of pie
I craved it so badly and yet I passed it by
Oh it would have tasted so good with ice cream on top
Warmed up just a little, not sure why I didn't stop
It was strawberry-rhubarb, and it sounded great to me
But I love most pies, it's for my sweet tooth you see
Peach pie is a favorite that I love to eat
And a blueberry pie surely can't be beat
Every now and then lemon meringue comes to mind
But I surely can't leave a cherry pie behind
Pumpkin is the holiday favorite around here
I had a piece of it just earlier this year
When I lived in Washington blackberry was supreme
Warmed up just perfectly and topped off with ice cream
A key lime pie is very rich in taste
Yet it tasted very good and couldn't go to waste
Then there's the pie that is made of meat
I remember Mom making it, but it wasn't sweet
Next time I'm craving a piece of pie
I'll put it in my shopping cart and not pass it by
