There are lots of words associated with "piper" and "pipe" that would give us a theme: pied (as in "pied piper" fairy tale) (anything to do with the fairy tale - e.g., "rats", "Hamelin", "legend") drummer (as in "piper and drummer") (anything to do with pipe or flute playing - e.g., "bag piper", "pipe organ", "tabor") sand (as in "sandpiper"; also species "peep", "knot", "sanderling") (anything to do with sandpipers or birds - e.g., "shore", "footprint", "winged") (anything to do with Piper airplanes - e.g., "Cub", "Saratoga") peter (as in "Peter Piper picked a pack of pickled peppers") pepper (plant of the "piperaceae" taxonomic order; also "piperine") (anything to do with water pipes and plumbing - e.g., "pipeline", "steam pipe") pay (as in "pay the piper") dream (as in "pipe dream") bomb (as in "pipe bomb") (anything to do with tobacco pipes - e.g., "peace pipe") Whew!
