Hi Steve,
Back again:
I awake...equate lilies grow in thin snow; (is there another word to use for 'grow' here?) they spring forth in Spring
Aside from the shortened line in L2 (need one more syl), I'm not certain you have to name the season?
If you changed thin snow, to melting snow, you could then say something like: they burst forth in thaw
another idea: vernal equinox or vernal season's come
So, you might have something like:
I awake...equate lilies reach through thawing snow; vernal season's come
I awake...equate lilies spring forth through thawed snow; vernal equinox
