Water Dripping Into Bucket

There is no more accurate and ancient action, regarding the moment of connection between humans and earth, than the simple sound of water dripping into a bucket. For millennia, this has been the ultimate device, capable of administering access to the lips a life or abandoning individuals to the dried despair of death. Pay attention as the echo within can cause great thirst for the listeners and may even drive them mad. A bucket, also called a pail, is typically a watertight, vertical cylinder or truncated cone, with an open top and a flat bottom, usually attached to a semicircular carrying handle called the bail. A pail can have an open top or can have a lid. There are many types of pails and buckets. Household and garden uses are often for carrying liquids and granular products. Elaborate ceremonial or ritual buckets in bronze, ivory or other materials are found in several ancient or medieval cultures and are known by the Latin for bucket, situla. Farm chemicals often come in pails and buckets and can be reused for many farm tasks. Large scoops or buckets are attached to Loader (equipment) and Telehandler for agricultural and earthmoving purposes. Open headed and closed headed pails are used as shipping containers for chemicals and industrial products. A Lunch box is often called a lunch pail.
