Ode To A Butter Pie

An Update To My Ode For A Butter Pie For The Vocal "From Across The Room" Challenge
A wonderful friend was in a very mischievous mood last night and suggested I updated this for the Vocal "From Across The Room" Challenge, and she knows I can resist anything but temptation, so I have added a second poem to enter the challenge.
I have loved Butter Pies since I was a child, certainly not the healthiest delicacy but, as my friend Laura stated “Food of the Gods”.
Also known as a Catholic Pie as it was baked to be eaten on "no meat" Friday.
It was a staple at Preston North End until the Pie Makers Ashworths went under in 2007 but returned in 2010

Sensual
You In My Mouth

I like the rhymes and organization
Nope, not for me. I am not a fan of butter. Pie . yes. But as you say, we all have our little craze. Banana, apple and coconut pie for me. Enjoy in moderation Mike, watch the ole waistline.
