Gypsy and here's me thinking all haiku were over three lines? Sounds like a beautiful morning walk that is expressed beautifully in your three haiku.
Haiku are still a learning curve for me there are so many variations, rules and parameters. like does every Haiku have to have a kigo?. Just curious.
Thanks for sharing your haiku suite.

    There are many rules to haiku. Mostly due to how old it is .... over 300 years! When traditional haiku doesn't have a kigo it is senryu but modern haiku does not require a kigo. Thank you for reading, my friend, I appreciate it.

No one writes Haiku like you. You write like one of the old masters. You have a gift for it. You should start a class. That's right, you did.

You've written a nice set of poetry.
Good artwork: The image shown supports the poem. The background color goes well with the art.
A Haiku Suite would be a great contest write.
Thanks for sharing your Haiku Suite.
Good luck with your future writing.
