He had been accused
of not putting down roots
and being sort of fly by night
So in a call and response
Peter built a nest
He started small
not wanting to foul it
As he had before
Just a wee small space
to call his very own
A frugal place for a Scot
Wi' his tings aboot him.

It is wise to start small...
Anna :o]
well done...thanks for sharing your words
A mighty fine concept, Pete
"He started small
not wanting to foul it"
Sounds like a good way to begin...

... and the last two lines, the perfect way to end it!
