October Sky - Haiku

scarecrow’s pale shadow
  moves across the brittle corn…
        harvest moon rising

               <<**>>

       autumn’s fiery dawn
  gently stirs a caldroned lake…
       mallards flying south 

               <<**>>

           frigid cobalt blue
starkly frames a weathered nest…
         leafless maple tree


        non traditional haiku

I prefer your non traditional to many of these I have seen. Though almost all the October sky haiku have been very good, I think your set is one of the best.
