Hi Chispa, I found this great article about Haiku::
http://www.toyomasu.com/haiku/#whatishaiku
It should help.
"Don't matter who they are, anybody sets foot in this house, they are company and don't let me catch you remarking on their ways like you were so high and mighty."
thanks Riesa!
I found a haiku source that contradicts much of what this article says specifically the 5-7-5 rule at http://www.haikuworld.org/begin/menubar.home.html
Check it out if your interested.

Hey, Dan D.
That is a dandy website. Thanks for the link.
"Don't matter who they are, anybody sets foot in this house, they are company and don't let me catch you remarking on their ways like you were so high and mighty."
Self-referential Haiku.
A Haiku's a verse,
With syllables arranged thus:
Five, seven and five.
I love this page, it sums Haiku up.

I love haiku.I first heard of them when I was very young.It was in this really creepy novel I read about a mad psycologist who was fascinated by haiku's.
He found a haiku book lying on the bed of his step mother who he killed and took it as a hobby...Amazing no?
We should start posting Haiku you kno..
Just so you know, there is a Haiku thread in the Games section.
Do you remember the name of the book? It sounds interesting.
"Don't matter who they are, anybody sets foot in this house, they are company and don't let me catch you remarking on their ways like you were so high and mighty."
Do you ever have one of those moments, where the book falls open and you find what you didn't even know you were looking for? This is for the Haiku lovers out there.
BASHO AN
Octavio Paz
The whole world fits in-
to seventeen syllables,
and you in this hut.
Straw thatch and tree trunks:
they come in through crannies:
Buddhas and insects.
Made out of thin air,
between the pines and the rocks
the poem sprouts up.
An interweaving
of vowels and the consonants:
the house of the world.
Centuries of bones,
mountains: sorrow turned to stone:
here they are weightless.
What I am saying
barely fills up the three lines:
hut of syllables.
"Don't matter who they are, anybody sets foot in this house, they are company and don't let me catch you remarking on their ways like you were so high and mighty."
