[OPLINLIST] poem request

[Susan Corl]

Hi all,

 

A patron has requested a poem about cherry pie that he remembers from
his childhood. The poem is about a man who is supposed to give up his
cherry pie, but he will not give it up.   He thought it was written by
Edgar Guest, but he was not able to locate the poem with Edgar Guest as
the author.   I have been looking but have been unable to come up with
anything.

 

Does anyone know this poem?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Susan
