"Beavers build dams, that is what beavers do.
The only one worrying about hawks, is you.
Arrive late again, and your time here is through."
And the beavers worked hard for the rest of the day.
The next day young Jenny arrived rather early. But, still Jenny's
boss, reacted quite poorly.
"You see it's not hard to show up when I say,
Why did you finally listen today?
said her boss, who still grinned in a mean sort of way.
"I was going to talk to my friend the bear,
but beavers build dams, that is easy to see.
And the only one worrying about bears is me."
And the beavers worked hard until catastrophe struck.
A huge rock came barreling down the river and crashed right into the
dam.
"Where did this come from! Someone must know,
Jenny go ask all the fish if they know!"
Jenny went off to ask the fish, and then reported back.
"The current is strong and they could not go see,
I'll go ask the wolves what the problem could be."
So Jenny went off to ask all the wolves, and then reported back.
"The brush is too thick and they could not get by,
I'll go ask the coyotes, if they might know why."
So Jenny went off to ask the coyotes, and then reported back.
"They said that the boulder came falling from high,
The hawks might have seen, since we know they can fly."
So Jenny went off to ask the hawks, and then reported back.
This time she came back looking sad and upset.
Her boss yelled, "If the birds did not see, then you must ask the
bear.
Surely he knows, since his cave is up there."
"No need," said Jenny (since the hawks had just told her).
"The bear will not help, since HE threw down the boulder."
And ever since that day, Jenny showed up when she pleased.
