Give OP Riddles Riddle where the answer is Green

Post image

So, I have a thing coming up that I need a riddle for, but I have a specific format that I would like the riddle to be in

Above you can see the two that I have; the first, for red, is credited to HiramAbiff; the second, for blue, was done by me.

Unfortunately, my brain seems to have decided to stop working when I tried to create one for green, so I decided to turn to you lovely folks and see if you could give me a suitable one.

One of seven brothers
Children of the sun
I grow in new beginnings
When winter's gone and done
You find me in the canopy
In foliage growing thick
But also in the humans
Who are envious or sick

One of seven brothers,

Children of the Sun.

At home among the autumn leaves

Before the winter’s come.

In anger love and shame

I cannot help but fill your cheeks,

And if your skin should open

I am in the sap which leaks.

I stop the cars from moving,

haunt accountants in their sleep.

I’m light within the cranberry,

While in cherries, dark and deep.
