Peter Piper - Pickpocket

Perhaps Peter Piper did not pick a peck of pickled peppers,
Perchance Peter purloined them.

Peter's pretext for pickled peppers puts people at ease,
Pickpocket's ploy personified.

Personalizing praise for Peter's pesky presumption,
People put Peter's penchant for peppers praiseworthy.

Perhaps, Peter pretended to pick the peck of pickled peppers,
People should portend where Peter put the peck he picked.

Peter passed plenty of peppers to people,
Personifying Peter and his peck.

Prided peppers purloined or in a pepper peck,
Peter put in his pants pockets.
