Wintery wet wilting
flowers decaying in our sight ~
betray nature's love.

A very good set of images, with the flowers now gone and thoughtful reflection in the final line. Thank you so much!

Attractive haiku..vivid imagery paints the snow melting with flowers frozen in the chill of the icy blast...Yes, nature's love has betrayed it's kindness with a sudden blast of winter! Beautiful picture in words!

Somtimes snw is too soon before the flowers are gone.
