Fable
Twin Buckets there lived in a well.
This is their parable.
Said the one, as he downward went,
With a rattle of discontent:
“What folly! drawn full to the top,
Returning with never a drop.”
Quoth his mate, coming skyward, “Why, nay!
I see it another way.
“However thirsty we sink,
We rise with a plenty to drink!”
Life's tapestry's woven so that it
Shines just as you choose to look at it,
And responds, as your wisdom hath struck it,
Like a full or an empty bucket!
