Water

This morning I got on my donkey to ride to the town’s well and get water for my family.

The donkey said, “Not today. I don’t have it in me.”

I said, “Okay” and walked the four miles to the well and back.

I poured some water into the donkey’s drinking bowl.

The donkey said, “Thanks.”

I went inside. I said to my wife, “I”m sorry I took so long. The donkey wasn’t feeling well, so I walked.”

My wife said, “Oh, I was wondering why you don’t smell like donkey.”
