We should refresh this one but I have to admit that it might be too hard for us non-native speakers... I looked up the thread and not all seemed to be 5-7-5. With my understanding of word-divisions in English it probably is my problem but that really is a problem (as at least in Finnish the syllabification works in a bit different way).
But if you would be lenient with us non-natives we could try it as well. It looks like fun anyway.

bombur is correct
Our haikus are not perfect But we can do our best Five, seven and five Are the syllables to use If no-one objects Yes it is quite hard But we should give it a go See how it turns out You must try at least Even if it may be wrong But at least it's fun.
