You should know how to make a Haiku.
1st line is 5 syllables.
2nd line is 7 syllables.
3rd line is 5 syllables.
You can have as many words as you want, as long as it fits the syllable part.
There are only 3 lines in a Haiku.
Post away.

Though technically this is an odd fusion of English syllables and Japanese form is seen by the dashes. I'm not sure how it works with n like in the end of shizen.
bo-ku-no-to-ki
zet-ta-i-ni,-mo-do-re-na-i
shi-zen-se-tsu-ri.
Here's what it would be closest to a haiku I think.
boku no toki
ima, modorenai
shizen setsuri
Of course I've been told that using time as a construct of nature is slightly pushing at tradition.
I think I meant grammar structure.
"One must recall that a haiku does not require perfect grammar"
Previous sentence:One must recall that a haiku forces in correct word structure.

A haiku doesn't need perfect word structure.
A good haiku always has correct word structure.

Do you mean a good English or Japanese haiku?

I was taught English Haiku, so I went with that.
I wouldn't have known though, since you edited your post right around the same time or after I posted mine.

In that other post my brain short circuited. I did put down the previous sentence I had before.

Agreed with Medic there. Haikus have way more deepth in japanese, that I know. The way japanese was created allows haikus to be deeper with less words.
They tend to seem bland in english, like...no double meanings? No different meaning in case it is written with different kanji and keeps the same sound, but have a meaning different but that also matches? For english or portuguese, or anything with latin on it, I am simply biassed for the good ol' sonnet, personally.
So medic is not alone, I shall make my own japanese haiku(Beware of bad japanese!)
Ne, toki datta...
...kawaranai mono ka?
Jaa, uso da...
