"Daily Bread" from Parables from Nature
There was this Robin and a turtle. The turtle was talking about "Waking me up from my nap." The tortoise tells him about the weather that is coming. It was the winter. All the berries were going to be gone and snow would be on the ground. Then the Robin flew away and found some other birds that he was going to share with.
He always went to the berry place where there were always berries and he always sings. But one day there was no berries. He found a man that had all the berries. Then the bird started to chase him but the door shut on him before he could in.
Two days later of hunger he went to the place again. He saw a window open and saw a bunch of crumbs spread out there, then the window shut. He flew over and ate the crumbs. It came spring and the tortiose waked up. The tor calls him and thought the Robin was going to be half starved but he wasn't half startved because of the people. |
