A Hummingbird's Story

 "There once was a lush green forest.  It's floor and canopy filled with all types of wildlfie, big and small.  The animals loved their home dearly until one day when it started to get hot.  The bushes were aflame.  Charcoaled branches were snapping left and right.  All of the animals were in a stampede towards the nearest river.  As they watched their homes burn, an elephant, with his massive trunk sagging beneath it, noticed a hummingbird.  It had been flying back and fourth carrying water from the river to the forest fire.  The elephant asked "What are you doing, Hummingbird?"  And the hummingbird replied kindly, "I'm doing everything I can do."
