The Weekend Design

The canopy hovered above. We scurried with hushed voices seeking the hollow pecking that vibrated in our ears. Gracing our search, to our utter delight, were trailing flutters of red. They played and chased each other in the tree tops unaware of all those around and below. We paused. We then found the pecking but our excitement was otherwise previously captured by the swirling chase of the red feathered cardinals. My heart aches with the brevity of the sweetness, as it is also filled to the brim by the shared delight. The Creator and joy in and among the created.
