The Green Man?

 It is a dark night where the leaves are rustling in the wind, somehow scaring the dog. This tree does not belong to us but it hangs mostly in our yard. Right now it is bearing these beautiful yellow leaves. The light from the back porch shines enough light onto the tree to make it look spooky and gorgeous all at once. I see a face in the leaves (actually I see three). Jim suggested it was the Green Man, but we are in the wrong season for him, unless...maybe this is what happens to him in the fall.

*A Green Man is a sculpture, drawing or other representation of a face surrounded by or made from leaves.
Primarily it is interpreted as a symbol of rebirth or "renaissance", representing the cycle of growth each spring.
