Signs written in snow

Calligrapher sharpens her brush

Run Dharma painter!

Hmmm, guess it sorta falls within the guidelines. 5-7-5, seventeen in total. Basho would probably approve, you're implying the season of the year.
Kawabata, ca 1920's:

A drop of dew

an ant recedes from it

staggering




In glimmer of moon

scars of deep snow

cannot be hidden

Cheers,
Mike

That's an interesting haiku, and it sure looks like a lot of fun was had in the making.
