season of winter
becomes spring blossom by blossom
as the frost is slain

Is that a picture of a star magnolia? I love them--they look like daisy trees!

I'm all for slaying frost blossom by blossom. Great haiku!

Helen, I'd never met you before tonight, and I think it is my loss that I didn't. I am going to sleep tonight, praying for your peace now.
God rest your soul.
