Carol,
thank you…
I don’t think it is an “official pattern”…
I think this one is actually over the acceptable 17 syllables.

From Chevrefeuille in a comment to someone on his blog: Carpe Diem:
“Write your verses right from the heart
and if you feel that it is a haiku (or senryu) than that it is.
I remember myself questioning my verses,
but all my verses feel like haiku
and maybe they aren’t that great,
and maybe they aren’t 5-7-5 syllables
… well … to me it doesn’t really matter.
I enjoy writing haiku and I am enjoying every wonderful haiku
which I am so glad to find in the post on Carpe Diem.
Haiku is a life-style”
..
I do like 2-5-3 words…not syllables for casual haiku.
