Compose a short description of a melancholy scene outside a farmland field with weeping willows and an abandoned bucket.

Narrow ravines mark where a large river once flowed, the lifeblood of the land choked off from its most precious resource. Several weeping willows hang mournfully over the edge of the former bank, their branches dry and no longer able to tap what is no longer there. An abandoned wooden bucket lies on the far side of the ravine, discarded along with the hope its contents would bring.
