How do trees effect soil?

When a tree is first planted in the ground, (say, from a seed) its roots immediatly begin growing into the soil, absorbing the water from within. After a tree has taken the water, the soil becomes dry until the next rain. When fully grown, the tree will get up and move on to another soil patch, just like your last girlfriend, leaving the sucked dry useless patch of soil to sit there alone forever. Once the tree has moved on, the used patch of soil will rot away until a new clump of soil comes along, only to be used again by a tree.

In conclusion, a tree will convince its patch of soil that they are in a steady relationship and will be together forever, then sucks up all the nutrition and leaves. Pretty much, all the trees do is kill the soil, slowly and painfully.
