I'm looking at lighting a kitchen in a wood cabin and to try and make the wiring (which will sit on the outside of the ceiling) as neat as possible, I'm wondering if I can wire 3 separate lights in the fashion I've illustrated below (taking an illustration that was done for 2 lights and trying to add a third, but not in a daisy chain fashion).
Illustration/diagram:
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

People use black and white because they only sell NM cable in black-white or black-white-red. We certainly wish we could use more illustrative colors.
Let's recolor the wires to indicate their actual function. You can do the same thing with colored tape.
With red being switched-hot, it seems clear you are doing the right thing.
Looks right to me.
