I really like this ku which highlights transience in every word - melting away like snow, snowman and man's vows. Superb! Thank a lot for sharing.

Perhaps the shortest 3 liner I ever read. It can be read as a fragment/phrase, snow/man's vows or as a run on fragment, snow man's vows. Either way it's good
