Rain, the drink of choice for trees.
Drip, drip, drip.
The roots are sucking up as much as they can.
Their ears listening to the satisfying sound
of the raindrops pattering against their thirsty branches.
Ahhh,
sighs of relief,
for the rains have finally come after a hot dry summer.
The cooling sensation of large quantities of water
dripping down the trunk.

The first shower of the season.
