I guess this is one of those that either you see it right away or you never see it!
no, it was about the 10th thing I tried.
[14] That's what I thought too, but then I thought a bit deeper on the requirements of a haiku.
[14] I'm with you. I seem to be puzzle-blind tonight.
I always thought Haiku is an interesting form...
(still some TPs going begging from Last Night's Tanga Times! http://tanga.com/blogs/967)
Think about Haiku
The thing you already know:
Its structure and form
[16] Did it for me :) Nice puzzle, and it's fun!
5-7-5-7-7?????
This puzzle is like
Measuring a summer's day
Brings smiles to my face

And its a FUN one too!!
Wikipedia has far to much information about Haikus.
To avoid lengthy Wikipedia entries, a Haiku primer for anyone who might need it:
Five syllables here
And seven syllables here.
Now, five yet again.
Here are some syllables for you--Goodnight!
thanks for the comments on the puzzle guys. Of course, as has been the case with most of mine, I wasn't home when it launched. Seems like most of you are catching on. There is some really good salt in some of the posts above. :)
While I feel Haiku Suck
This puzzle was not that bad
Was enjoyable.
Really well done puzzle! I dig it. :)
Wow, excellently made puzzle!
Nicely done kswitz :)
Ah, it's refreshing to have things "click" so easily (no, that's not salt.) Well done!
Nice puzzle. And not for the surface reason :) Really clever, and... damn you, I had a "rage" into "fork part" thing percolating.
Nice puzzle if you know what haiku is all about. Unfortunately, it's not under my rock, but thanks for the salt.
[34] Brillant!
[36] by the way Arnott, hope you don't mind my using you in my poem. But man, sometimes your puzzles drive me nuts. (always in a good way).

What's your rock like? Mine is grey with light green and white lichen growing on it. Kinda pretty I think. Anyway, use [26] but apply as tanga numbers...
Oh, darnit. I got so caught up in the fact that "seven" is hidden in Haiku #2, and "ten" in Haiku #3, that I was trying to do something with the seventh syllable of #2 and the tenth syllable of #3, and then trying to find a hidden number in Haiku #1...
Well, anyway. Nicely done.
I thought that was very sweet and elegant. *smile*
Very nice.
There is no standard haiku form.
[42] hmmm.. I taught English for 5 years and we only used one form... and when I double-checked it on Wikipedia it also came up as the common form. If there isn't a standard one there is definitely a most used one, and if you follow the form provided in the puzzle you should get the answer.
GREAT ONE!
Very creative!! 5Stars! =-D
Feeling very stumped and quite dull.
I can't see what to count.
[46] Start small.
Lines, letters and words
Counting them leads to folly.
What am I missing?
[48] Certain important numbers are used to make Haiku, as you're obviously aware of. Perhaps there's a way you could apply those numbers to this puzzle?
EDITED FOR SALT CONTENT
Thanks. My brain wasn't working today.
i haven't had one of those in a while. =)
[42] There is no spoon
I dont understant this crap!!!
