Haiku

"Traditional haiku consists of 17 on, in three phrases of 5, 7 and 5 on respectively. Although haiku are often stated to have 17 syllables, this is inaccurate as syllables and on are not the same."- Wikipedia
For the purpose of this exercise, I'll just count syllables, because I'm not familiar with 'on'!

A golden sliver
As the crimson rooster crows
A new day is born
