Yes, the snow will be melting and watering the thirsty soil to bring on the roses and their blooms. I like ... slender in repose
The entire presentation is lovely.

A lovely haiku Amada. The picture is perfect for this well written piece.
The first two lines are grammatically connected beautifully and the satori line is delightful.

In my opinion, a lovely poem, though succinct, it easily captures the beauty of the scene in tentative optimism, an easy view of an anticipated future - fully compliant with the prompt. Best wishes in the contest...

Amazingly beautiful! The snow caked on the rose isn't something you see every day. It reminds me of a children's fairy tale. I believe it was Snow White who went into a coma and the dwarves covered her snow-covered body with red roses? Anyway, that's the picture that comes to mind for me.

It is so that we can say so much with a few words and a descriptive picture. The beauty of some of the winter scenes and the job that is being done quite often escapes us. But here you have presented a huge message.

I always find roses in snow a pleasing image, particularly because it happens so rarely.

This is a fine entry into the contest Amada and I wish you great luck with the committee. :)
