The keets, and something Prince Albert is watching.

I thought I was reading in the "what are you wearing" thread.

And I was wondering what keets were, and even more what it was what Prince Albert was watching.  :eyebrows:

Yeah, keets does sound like some British/Scottish slang word.  Just my shorthand for the parakeets.
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

Keats was okay, I like Poe better.
Bright Star
Bright star, would I were stedfast as thou art
Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night
And watching. with eternal lids apart,
Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite
The moving waters at their priestlike task
Of pure ablution round earth's human shores
Or gazing on the new soft fallen mask
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors--
No--yet still stedfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast
To feel forever its soft fall and swell,
Awake forever in a sweet unrest,
Still, to hear her tender taken-breath,
And so live forever--or else swoon to death.


Edit : this work is alright but I like Poe's Lenore much better.

The Raven may quote "Nevermore," but my keets just chirp away.

I have noticed that bird enthusiasts need different skills than cat or dog owners. Dogs are easy.

Maybe that's why I love them so much!  :laugh:

Neighbour girl singing completely out of tune, and home girl reading a story about a fictional queen with a fictional friend who do fictional things. Lots of laughter.

Or, as many people pronounce it where I live,  "LAWREN AWDA!"   :laugh:
