A haiku is a three-line poem with a syllable count of 5 on the first line, 7 on the middle, and 5 on the last line. For example:

North in the Gold Coast
I see a familiar sight
Beautiful Anvil

Hidden cave grows life
Vvardenfell moon sugar here
Do I help Khajiit?

Werewolf skill grows strong
Initiation with bite
Dreams of Cyrodiil

An easy way to count syllables is to count the number of times your jaw moves downward as you speak the words. For example, "Elder Scrolls" should have 3 syllables. If someone has a better method, please share!

(As a side note, please do not harass people for incorrectly counting syllables, it's difficult and not so intuitive :) indeed, there is nothing so destructive of creativity when people are bashed for attempting to enjoy the same things you do)
Get creative!

    Like river, life flows.

    Say what you want to
    And do what you have to do
    But its still on you

    There once was a tank named Beth Rose
    She broke a khajiits Nose
    When they started to fight she saw a light, Well now she glows... o:)
