/// Her farms’ wells had run totally dry.
She’d been told she should come here to buy
jugs of pure mountain waters
from a gal with six daughters.
They’re not here, and she may start to cry.
/// She peers into the distance, bereft.
Needs to buy all the jugs she can heft.
Sights, beyond border barriers,
The (far-off) Water Carriers
who’d poured out all their jugs here, and left.

/// She peered into the distance to track
the dark cloud from a vessel’s smokestack.
Her man left with the tide.
As she watched it, she cried.
Her love— unlike high tide— won’t be back.
