A thirsty crow (OUTSTANDING)
It was a hot summer.
The burning rays of the sun had dried up the pools and ponds all around. Life
was crippled thoroughly. A crow felt very thirsty. He flew here and there in
search of water to quench his raging thirst. But he could find no water
anywhere. The unbearable thirst had parched his throat completely. He feared
that he would die soon if we could not find water. Therefore, he did not cease
his search. At last, he arrived at a garden. To his good luck, there was a pitcher
placed near Cottage. He felt very happy. He sat at the mouth of the pitcher and
looked into it. To his grief, the water in the pitcher was a bit low. He could
not get at it. He was utterly upset. By chance, he caught sight of a few
pebbles lying nearby. He struck on a brilliant idea.
He began to drop the
pebbles into the pitcher one by one. The water began to rise slowly. He continued
his labour till the water rose up to his reach. He drank water his fill and
flew away happily.
