Ode to pie.
Sigh
Sweet food reply
Cry
Savory supply
All for one when we see eye to eye
Dish bake
Two-crust, one-crust: crossed rake
Naming pies some fake
Golden stake
Sweeter kind is cake.
Vegetables or fruits, fish or meats
Chocolate, custards, creams, cheese, nuts, sweets
Bottom only crust – tart treats
Slices served or bite-sized party eats
Well cooked heats
Pastry
Sugar free
Blind-baked no fillings – light, airy
Butter puff glee
Short, sweet, hot-water spree
Dessert
Clear the table alert
Tooth decay flirt
Tummy hurt
Afters pert
‘Coffyn’ has more crust than willing.
No pie-ing.
Filling
Eskimo or moon chilling
Cream or topped pie throwing thrilling
