THE OL» STONE WELL Wiat joy f0 remember tic old stone curbed well, Outsidc by our back kitchen door, With its ca, cold, spring watcr, tiat camne !rom thc hills, A mile away, maybe 'twas more. My gra ndmothcr 'galed me, wien I was a lad, With iow fiat old wcll came to be, My geandfather dug it with labor. s0 hard, 'Way back in thc lasf century. He gathcred Uic stones from tic fields o! tic farm, And curbed Uic inside all around, Tien topped Uic old wcll witba a circled stone wall, That sat on tic curb at tic ground Tic watcr wc drew with a long ten-foot pole, With a twcnty-inci iook on its end, That prevcnted tic pail !rom c'en tumbling at ail, When into .tic well 'twould descend. Witi tic polc we would sink tiat old pail to Uic brim, And fill if witi water so full, Tic spifi about haîf o! if bumping thc sides, As tic load to Uic top we would pull. Tic old well sf111 serves wiUi its spring waterca, But gone aie Uic pole and Uic pail, An electrified system, witi higi pressure tank, Now serves tic wlsole place witiout fail. Still I'd love to go back f0 tint old stone curbed well, And iook that old pail-oi wiaf joy- On Uic pole. and pull up just one real, good cold drink, Like I used f0 wien I was a boy.
