The Wishing Well

I went to the wishing well.

The wishing well said, “Yeah, Brooks, what is it this time?”

I said, “Nothing for me, I have something for you.”

I brought in a construction crew. They dismantled the old and worn top of the well. Then the crew went into the well and took out all the old dilapidated stones and drained the stagnant water. They then created a proper drained system and piping that connected the well to the local lake.

The crew then put in new stones on the on the bottom and sides of the well. They then constructed a proper top.

When they were done, the wishing well was in tears.

The wishing well said, “How can I ever repay you?”

I got out a thick notebook, sat down on the ground, and began reading from the long list.
