Pear Pie with a twist



If you ever made a pie with a bone on top
would you give it to your dog
for a birthday treat?

would you eat it on all fours
gulping it quickly, past your teeth?

would you serve it to your husband
with a smile oh so sweet,
then wait for his bark
which is worse than his bite?

If you ever made a pie with a bone on top
you could eat it off the floor and forego a plate.

If you ever made a pie with a bone on top
would we have to worry 'bout you
should we check for rabies?

If you ever made a pie with a bone on top
I think I'd like you lots
for being just the right kind of freak.
