The Leaf Parable

Attention, change, and relation in one small emblem.

When I point to a leaf upon a tree and say, "It is Tree"; you understand
When I point to its branch and say, "Too, it is Tree; you nod
Why then;
When I point to the Mind & say "It is God"; do you not?
Why then;
When I point to Creation & say "It is God"; do you protest?

Why?
