Falling Leaves

Good morning Autumn
We are alike you & I... Our foliage falls away, and reveals our true reality. 

For you it is the foliage on your tree. 
For me it is the foliage in my heart... 

When the hiding leaves fall away revealing a man for what he is,  is he naught more than a learned beast? Could he be something more...  A noble beast? The enlightened kind?

Dearest humanity... 
In your fleshy body did you forget? 
Have you forgotten that you... are the light?
