Question

write a story based on the the proverb 'a bird in hand is worth two in a bush'

Answer 1

Once upon a time, there lived a dog. One day he was very hungry. He was wandering in search of food. He went to a butcher’s shop. He stole a piece of meat from the butcher’s shop. He took it in his mouth and ran out of the village. On the way, there was a stream with a narrow bridge over it. When he was crossing the bridge, he saw his own reflection in the water. He took it for another dog with a bigger piece of meat. He decided to snatch that piece of meat from the other dog. So he barked at the dog and jumped into the stream. As soon as he did so, his own piece of meat fell from his mouth and disappeared in the stream. He had to return home hungry.

Answer 2

Answer:

Story: The greedy dog

Once a dog found a piece of bone. He was walking with the bone in his mouth looking for a nice place to eat the bone. Soon he reached a river bridge. While walking across the bridge, he looked down in the water and saw his own reflection. He thought that it was another dog with a bone. He immediately jumped into the river to get what he thought was another bone. In the process he lost his own bone.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. We should be satisfied with what is already in our possession because while trying to get something which we think is better, we may lose everything.
