Yes! That's Japanese writing style... they're poems consisting of 3 lines, of 5, 7 and 5 syllables each, in that order, generally related to nature and similar topics.
I used to be the "Haiku Queen" at high school... long funny (embarrassing) story.

An example:

La rosas rojas
desbordantes de vida
al sol descansan
