the pond - Trying Haiku

[just mercedes]

Full edited version below Of this haïku

Dry baked water edge,
skimmer breaks nature's mirror.
Dissolving landscape


Original version --
Crystal clear water ripples
From a sun dried smooth shaped stone
Deftly skimmed across

Hi - and welcome! Something about the 'dry baked water edge' doesn't sit right for me. The opposition of water and dry together. Do you need 'nature's'? I like haiku without any punctuation, or capitals. Your use of a period after the second line, but not after the third, makes the 'ku feel incomplete. Nice glimpse of a moment though.

Maybe something along the lines of

dry riverbank
a skimmer breaks the mirror
dissolving landscape
