(Spring)

Newly created,
Bright, beautiful, peaceful:
The spring of Arda.

(Summer)

Young, curious Elves
prospering under mingled light
of silver and gold.

(Autumn)

Cherished remains,
trying to maintain glory
of failing hopes.

(Winter)

Dark, bereaved land
haunted by prophesied fate.
Yet hope remains.

Each and every haiku is concisely beautiful. You clearly chose your words carefully, and it shows. "Winter" is particularly poignant.
