I did this haiku for school. We had to do 4 haikus about the seasons(since that and romance are the most common haiku subjects). It's Estonian, but I'll translate it.

Estonian:

Kasvavad õunad,
kus neid kasvab nii palju?
Hullu mehe aed.


Kõrvetav kuumus,
tapab linde, jäneseid,
psühho irvitab.


Lehed lendavad,
see hull jääb ikka hulluks,
öösel siristab.


Lumi katab maad,
mehel jalad kangeks jäid,
ikka naeris ta.


English:

Growing apples,
where do so many grow?
The crazy man's garden.


Deadly heat,
kills rabbits, birds,
the psycho smirks.


Leaves are flying,
the nut is still a nut,
howls in the moonlight.


The snow covers the ground,
the man's legs went stiff,
still, he was laughing.


:D
