I could argue that "each minute leaf, a spec of color" portends the idea expressed later in the peom about a leaf's vein pattern as blueprint of the tree. Would you believe me, or say it's late covering?
"Resignedly" is right - good call. I don't suppose you'd buy that "resignly" sounds better?
You're better at how things sound, so maybe you'd tell me what "crimson/Artistes" lacks.
