'Nature always wears the colors of the spirit'  -  Ralph Waldo Emerson
(tanka inspired by above)

Garbed from head to toe
All of its intensity
Red and orange hues
Likely burden to endure
Sunset in awesome likeness

Cool April showers
Man, Woman instigated
Extending love bids
Feelings accentuated
Radiance captured by young hearts

For Chev's CARPE DIEM#1035 the colors of the spirit
Bjorn's at d'Verse's OLN - #178  -  saving grace
