What moments would await one as they witness the harvest moon. A new dawn arises whilst a new day's sunshine lures the corns yellows to show. Good luck in the contest Annalise....:)

Your haiku is very nice, Annalise and I think you met all Charles Henderson's requirements. Not easy to do, but you came through. Good luck. Best to you, Diane

Smile ~ "Your Beauty" is so "Amazing" for, to be able to craft such a thought evoking poe amid so few words is "Astonishing," to say the absolute least and, again, one could only find themselves completely emerged amid this "Glowings Harvest Moon Moment" ~ I hope that life is treating "Your Treasures" wonderfully my dear & "Yes," I shall fave this lovely canvas ~ ....Cont:)

Smile ~ Sounds almost as a dream sequence "My 'Dear, Precious & Priceless Annalise Brigham!!!'" ~ I also find it somehow metaphoric in Nature; or perhaps, symbolic towards the long thought anticipation of what, shall Never be for, "Yes," the Sun will Rise as the Moon so sets whereupon, the Corn will fail to behold the Hands of fate...."Sooo Brilliant; 'Wow'" ~ ....Cont:)

Okies little one line 1 is OKies it has the subject clearly! [just make sure Charles in not sticking to a straight 5/7/5] now line 2 [in my opinion] is too much like a regular sentence [in fact it IS a sentence] and not evocative enough, line 2 is where the action is use a strong visual or sensory action word here [though the best haiku use only nouns it's too hard for me1] too end line 2 you want three --- which are marks to indicate a PROvocative shift in the same image
