“Joyas Voladoras” is a beautiful text written by Brian Doyle. He wrote the text because his son was missing chamber, and he was inspired to write about hearts in many different ways. The underlying message Brian Doyle is sending in “Joyas Voladoras” is no matter how much you protect your heart, no matter how you care your heart, your heart will still broken.
First, hummingbirds need to be more careful with their hearts. Doyle said “They can fly backwards. They can fly more than five hundred miles without pausing to rest. But when they rest they come close to death” (pg.pg. 30, line 16-19).
