    ohhh!! I so adore this KU! now there's one I haven't heard yet "goldenrod hues" ..lovely imagery with this! the beginning line was perfect! actually I'm not sure about filler words in haiku..but when I read this

    in cracks of wind
    slow sway of tall grasses

    perhaps it can be read more like:

    in cracks of wind
    slow sway the tall grasses

    ?

    that way there's no repetition of "of" and it flows better...just a suggestion nicely written poet
