A Dry Well

The well is dry hear the bucket sound
As its metal hits the dry ground
From the windless let way down
No ker-splash was there found
Dip the pen in ink 
Far did it sink
So so far
Dry, dry

Michael Walkerjohn Date: 10/11/2013 5:59:00 PM Aloha Sara... such memories... of relying upon the resources of the land... and knowing how important these were... to family and community... much of those times is forgotten... thank you for these words and for the memories... now how do we express this knowledge and experience to the current generation? through our words. My posts are compositions of my experiences and hopefully will bring about a change in heart. All of the best from this life, to you, and all of your relations... Michael. Login to Reply
