Flashing forth boldly
Not one to ignore

Bursting with energy
Life and death, love and war

Prosperity and fortune
For some weddings a fashion

To welcome and protect
Living life with great passion

Fire, danger, and fury
Sun’s glow in the morning

When anger arises
Heed now its warning

With life it flows…
Full, open, and free – is red

From “On Colors”
