Syntax matching question(s)

I am creating a vim syntax file for GNU Rec as an exercise in creating a new syntax file.

The things that I need colored are:

%word:
+
word:
# comment

I have the following so far:


" /^%\w+:\s/gm
syntax match recDesc "\v^%\w+:\s"

" recField
" /^\w+:\s/g,
syntax match recField "\v^\w+:\s"

" /^\+\s/gm
syntax match recPlus "^+\s"

" /^#.*/gm
syntax match recComment "^#.*"

The first "recDesc" is not working but the other three (3) are. I was wondering why that is so? I am thinking recDesc and recField are too close in matching.

Also, is there a better regex for the matches?

Thanks for any help and suggestions.
