Well here it is, the one and only THETOLKIENFORUM Haiku thread. From an original Haiku by daisy.
Haiku is described at
http://www.lsi.usp.br/usp/rod/poet/haiku.html
I don't claim to be an expert. Do your best. Basically it is 3 lines, with 5 syllables the first line, 7 the second and 5 the last line.
Here's mine to start (try not to laugh):
Treebeard is an Ent
He's the oldest living thing
Strides LONG in Fangorn
daisy you better do yours HAHA :)

Hee, hee, hee, those are good.
But what if Tolkien had been into haiku....
Three Rings for Three Elves
Seven for the Seven Dwarves
Nine for the Dead Men
One Ring for Dark Lord
In shadowy Mordor Land
Don't mess with One Ring
Hmm, maybe it's just as well he wasn't.
