“WHEN WELLS RUN DRY”
No door’s so wide that can’t be locked
No light’s so bright that can’t be blocked
No lightening flash without thunder bolt
No burst of smoke without fire so close
Where will we be when our wells run dry?
Nature’s kind is bound to cease
Flow of Wealth is sure to freeze
So when we pluck our garden seeds
Tis wise to think that harvests ease
Like Joseph did in Egypt’s days of need
That’s what should be in lands of care
The leaders think on what is fair
So guide their steps in strides of fear
On rainy days do keep in careful ware
What all would reap when seasons dare.
I look with awe as our futures wear
Our leaders gladly sign what they ought to tear
Like smoke in wind our wealth disappear
Educated fools indeed they are
