Contemporary haiku in English need not conform to the somewhat outdated mode of counting syllables. Many 21st-century practitioners of the form regard haiku as more of a nature-inspired one-breath poem.

David, how wonderful! Thank you for evoking this outdoor theatrical experience…we’ve all been in that audience.
Faulting a haiku like this for one syllable? Crazy! This is a gem. As long as it doesn’t go over 17 syllables, all is well.
