    At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source
    (whereby it corresponds to the art of poetry / if this 'source' is a 'well'):
    To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his word jokes and "Noch'n poem", with a short quatrain:
    "There is certainly much beauty in
    on the element, the wet.
    Because you can drink the water.
    But you can - also leave it."
    (H.Erhardt)

    🚲✨ The historic hand-crank pump in Horstmar is a charming relic from a time when water supply was still purely manual labor. These large, cast-iron hand pumps used to characterize the streetscape in every hamlet and in the town center, as they were the central meeting point for the neighborhood – not only for carrying water, but also for the latest gossip.
