A haiku is supposed to have three things:
1. A clear image
2. A clear emotion
3. A clear philosophical message

The image is not so clear to me as it seems to be two images - maybe you need to stick with the cherry image. The emotion seems to be hiding sadness with pride. But what is the philosophical message?
