I usually follow the 5-7-5 syllable rule when I can, but it’s better to be flexible and varied, English Haiku isn’t really bound by the Japanese conventions in anycase.
Nice poem Dhyan, and true – Haiku is primarily about the emotions that one ‘feels’ from reading it, the poet doesn’t tell you what he is feeling but guides you in finding the feelings yourself.
The Haiku poet
Cannot tell you exactly —
He would rather show
that is
very true
in any case
emotions and feelings
are not something one can
explain; they mean different things
and sensations to different people
and even to the same people
at different times
(it’s not really a poem?? – i am just in the mood
and like to cut things 😉 )
TH – i really enjoy not only your work but also the communication with you.
blessings,

for me
an haiku is just a form
of poetry
and as such
it is not judged
and if it is
then not by rule
but by the ways
it makes me feel
