    Don't forget the rule!
    Five, seven, five syllables
    First, second, third line

    (If you omit "fairly" in your first line, adasco69, that would meet with the five required syllables (or beats). Your second and third lines are correct, though, with seven and five syllables respectively.)

    Haiku is a blast
    But what needs remembering
    Is seasonal bits.

    That's correct, Canuck
    The special ingredient
    Is the "seasoning"!
