    At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source
    (although it corresponds to poetic license / if this 'source' is a 'well'):
    Namely, to quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 – 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his wordplay and "Noch'n Gedicht" (Another Poem), with a short four-liner:
    "There is certainly much beauty in it,
    in the wet element.
    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.
