Oooh I liked the image of shadows dancing... it paints a clear picture in my head. I'm told that the essence of haiku is to be objective and put the poet (so to speak) out of the poem, since haiku is about observation. You seem to have done that really well :) Just thought I'd point out there's a tiny typo in line three. It should be "rhythmic".
