Sprinkler Shower

A sudden rhythmic click ticked across the grass, and the oscillating sprinkler began its steady sweep. Remembering your suggestion to have some fun with it, I decided to join in without getting knocked over. I picked up a thick, fallen magnolia leaf by its stem to use as an umbrella. Stepping just within reach of the arc, I held the leaf overhead and waited. The cold water swept past with a soft hiss, drumming firmly against the waxy leaf and sending a cool, fine mist down over my boots. It was lively, and surprisingly refreshing. #buddies
