In the essay entitled Joyas Voladoras, Brian Doyle wanted to comment on the how human live and how they love. He wanted to emphasize that people could not look into others’ heart, and see the truth in them. It experienced numerous amazing experiences and compromise on numerous feelings every single second, every single day, and every single year. Furthermore, he used some metaphors to illustrate his story by comparing the characteristics of some animals, such as hummingbird, tortoise, and whale to express the idea of the story. On the beginning, the author explains about the hummingbird, which exists only in America. Its heart is really small like a pencil eraser, it beats ten times a second, it is thinner, and it is stronger than ours.
