The water trickled down my face
As sun gave way to rain
Laughter with the cool fresh feel
Washing away the strain
No dark thoughts from the clouds
A gentle north westerly blew
Smiling faces go to the subway
Everyone with things to do
Farmers prayers have been heard
First water in years
Much work to save their crops
Then to the pub for beers.

Any excuse for a drink! Over 80% of Australia is currently in drought, and having grown up in a semi-arid rural town in NSW, I sure appreciate those downpours when they finally arrive. Good one.
