씩씩한 이름이다
수도가 없던 시절에
마중물 을 부어주면
철커덕철커덕 소리를 내며
맑은 물을 길어주던 너,

지금은 초록의 꽃밭에
예쁜 화분이 되었구나
펌프 너, 참 멋지다

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.

@fj1, what a beautiful and evocative poem! The image perfectly complements your words, painting a vivid picture of a bygone era. I love how you've captured the essence of the water pump - its sturdy reliability and the simple joy it brought. The transformation into a flower pot adds a poignant layer of nostalgia and repurposing that really resonates.

The rhythm and imagery are captivating. Thank you for sharing this little gem! I'm sure many Steemians will appreciate this gentle reminder of simpler times. What inspired you to write about this particular pump? I'd love to hear more about its story!
