The Well Poem by Milky Galia

The Well



Dark is the Well to the bottom of my heart
Deeper than Joseph's cistern in Dothan
Should you try to fetch a water for a drink?
Where moss and mosquitos give life and live.

Shepherds and herders pass by and spit
Said "it's a curse and empty abyss"
Yet mosquitos live and form their families
And other lifeforms here they sleep.

For them it's The Well of Life
Though its stinks and useless for your needs
Your spit and curses can be there food
Forming new life and birth

Foul and useless this Well maybe
But someday a Living Water will be fetched
For I heard a One shepherd who drank and bathed in this pit
And He said "I will reach this abyss and pour Living Water in it"
