Flames Of The Evergreen Rusty sunbelt clench a rosette of scarlet peaks, …puffed lipstick trees dip. Vermilion blossoms surface on a marooned lake, blushing a pale shade. Petals shed to a subtle red, 'still in the pink', their ardor of Spring.

Your haiku string is really "in the pink!" So many luscious and delicate images - almost like spun pink sugar, William! Sending you congratulations on your win! And Aloha!

Thank you, Sam, as I did correct it into a haiku form where the magic took over, thanks again my friend, Aloha!
