    A spring and a bench invite you to rest.

      At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source:
      To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909-1979), who was known to a wide audience for his pun and "Noch'n Gedicht", with a short quatrain:
      "There is certainly a lot of beautiful about it,
      on the element, the wet.
      Because you can drink the water.
      But you can - also leave it alone. "
      (H.Erhardt)

        Unfortunately, the spring has dried up, but the bench still invites you to take a break.

        P.S.
        If you walk past the lake, you'll find another spring for your water supply 👍
