It's very interesting what you're saying, and I didn't know anything about it.

I also agree, English is much more direct than our romance languages and fewer words are needed to say the same thing, and in this case, it makes sense to use fewer syllables to express a haiku.

Please don't think I was complaining about the number of syllables, it's just that called my attention and didn't know why it should be done that way, and then I was getting used (erroneously I think) to doing haikus with the metric 5-7-5.

Thank you very much for the explanation Marco, now I understand a little more about haiku in English
