Basically, I think that the Wishing Well of SB (which I believe to be SB's Well of Wonders) is a permanently open portal that's brining magic from the Enchanted Forest.

I suck at similies, but if Magic was water, then the Enchanted Forest would be the company that provides water, Storybrooke would be a dry swimming pool, and the Wishing Well would be the water tap. At first, there's very little water when Gold "turns on the water tap", so the kids (Regina) can barely make the water splash, but some time later the pool gets full of water :P
