Dig a Well

Travelling in through fields and trees we did not plant, we moved into houses and barns we did not build. Pilgrims think, “This is swell!” when God says, “Dig a well.” Freedoms we enjoy, not just some government grant, schools, churches and liberty were someone’s hard work. Enrich what you’ve been given, why just rave and rant? Leave this world a better place than when you arrived. Dig wells of hope and while you dig, join those who chant, “I live; I want to sing - God’s plan I have fulfilled.” When God says, “Dig a well,” pilgrims think, “This is swell!” Swell it would be, never to have answered, “I can’t.” May 8, 2021 contest: A New Abracadabra Contest sponsor: Emile Pinet
