This is Pierre, the least smelly of all my parrots. He enjoys eating peanuts, chirping the alphabet and sitting on my hand. Don't make any sudden moves - he might fly at you!
Where are you sitting?

Shh! Don't be too loud - I'm in a hidden room in the tower and I don't want to be disturbed. Sometimes it's so hard to get some time alone.
What are you going to do next?

I love to write so I've come here to get some peace and quiet. Pierre is getting rather hungry, but I want to stay here and write another poem so he'll have to wait!
