Summary

The contributor tells how this little song was composed on the threshold by Nighean Alasdair Ruaidh, after she was banned from composing any song indoors or outdoors. It begins:

"There was a time when I could sing a song
I could sing a croon just as well
Today I can just croak to myself."
