Spring...
I know that springtime
Is out there. The smell of snow
melt is in the air

Twitter-poem! Haiku?
The olfactive image of snow melting is strong and innovative.
I recommend a book - don't fear, it's a neat book, and a great help to the aspiring haiku artist. Look for Kenneth Yasuda: Japanese Haiku, Its Essential Nature and History. If you cannot find it, give me a sign and I'll help.
