I ask my kids a bunch of things,
Do cats have thoughts? Do fish have wings?
Do spirits live when bodies die?
All they say is, “I like pie.”
I ask my kids for their opinions,
Question their assignments given,
Ask them the who’s and where’s and why’s,
All they say is, “I like pie.”
All this drives me to frustration,
As I see this communication’s,
Just meant to drive me up a wall,
And they don’t like pie at all.

Brilliant, should have not asked those questions in the first place 🙂
Oh, you are so right!
😀
Will they still say “I like Pie” when it’s time to learn about Pi?
No!! As a matter of fact, they do often say things like what is 3.14+3.14? Two pies!!
lol! Genius!
Calorie central over at your place today then?
Ha! No, it was actually the weekly challenge from WP. Thought I would submit two different takes on it.
A weekly challenge from WP – at first I was confused thinking it a chap named William Person we used to call WP – didn’t know they did challenges! Best of luck with that!
What a lovely poem! Great piece, Marissa 🙂
Thanks Joan!
You should watch Teen Titans. They do an episode where they sing about pie. That’s probably where they get it.
It’s funny. Considering how often my kids say this, I never found out where they got it from. That being said, I should probably not watch Teen Titans. Ever.
Oh yes you should watch Teen Titans. If you have any sense of humor in there, you would love that show. I’m just glad my kids make me watch it.
I probably wouldn’t take this advice from anyone but you.
I have some sort of bitter power then huh?
Obviously.
I wrote and illustrated a whole book about things kids say… about monkeys…
Two questions: Are you serious? and Where would I be able to purchase/look at this book?
I have a link on the sidebar of my blog.
How funny…..I LIKE PIE is my son’s MOTTO FOR LIFE! Disgusting sod can eat anything at this point and never gain an ounce! Glad to see you gearing up for the next holiday!
OMG!! It’s all I hear in my house!!
I just have one thing to say. I do like pie.
Is this National Pie Lovers Day or something? Very cute! 🙂
It was the weekly challenge in wordpress. Thought I’d do two takes on it.
LOL! Where did you find that challenge? Either way, you rocked them both!
Thanks. If you follow the daily post they come out weekly. You can also find them here:

They used to post every Monday but now they switched to Tuesdays.
Oh, cool! Thank you! 🙂
What’s all this talk about pie??? Now you really got me craving! All I need is an occasion to have one!
It was the weekly writing challenge on FB. Sorry, I was pretty hungry after writing them too!
No worries. I like dessert talk! 😉
