Shiki, one of the Big Five haiku poets, wrote this in classical style:
when I looked back,
the man who passed
was lost in the mist
© Masaoka Shiki
his haunting haiku inspires my attempt as follows:
glance out my window
cloud wisps pass before half moon
glimpse coyote shadows

Interesting that you mentioned coyote shadows. I have been hearing coyotes a few times in the middle of the night. Eerie.
