One of the things that haiku eschew is telling the reader what to think, feel or imagine. L2 is the author's interpretation of what the frog is doing. Best to say what you see and leave what you think, feel or imagine out of the word picture.

a few examples less authorial intrusion.

on a stone
the croaking frog
moonset

moonset
the croaking frog
on a stone

The examples you've shared don't appear to follow the untraditional hauki 5-7-5 scheme, making it much more criptic....nevertheless, thanks for reading and commenting.
