Interesting link. I've noticed that sometimes translated haiku, actually are haiku in english, too. (In the same syllable format.)

Aren't there many variations of haiku though?

there are many haiku clinics findable through search engines.

what we elarned here in the haiku thread that haiku is about non-human world. Haiku in English should describe a still-life, or after-an-event situation, must avoid the use of participles and continuous verbs, and do away with articles to have the Japanese feel to it. Doalogs, rhetorical or other questions, also do not fit into haiku.
