Walking thru the neighborhood I feel a force- strong, fast and elegant just miss my back.
I turn around and here is a massive deer, shoulders as tall as me, antlers higher, leaping with this power that could total a car but a grace that made it seem like it could almost become airborne.
The logic part of my brain tried to make a connection to the holiday, reindeer, all of those long told stories.
But the first reaction I had was the wonder of witnessing this force of nature, Mother Nature, sneaking into the suburbs, giving me this little Christmas moment.
