Thieves Wishing Well Warning

Beware of wishing for money here,
the last person that tried and leaned in
to make change and also a wish,
fell to his death to the bottom 
and now all his wishes have come true.

That's what happens when greed intervenes! Unfortunately the money would only have amounted to loose change...not enough to cover the trip to pastures new:) Regards // paul
