Solo chases troops.
Down Death Star's long corridors.
Screaming all the way.

Impossible odds.
Asteroids are in the way.
Shut up 3PO.

Power Converters!
Stop your whining you farm boy.
Clean up those droids now.

[Iare Tosevite]

Since I can't write haiku, I found some good ones... I reordered haiku list to make more sense however.
I hope those are of correct format, I have no way to know. :P

Impossible odds.
Asteroids are in the way.
Shut up 3PO!

Huge man in black cape.
Lightsaber of blood red hue.
Beware of Vader!

You killed my father.
No, Obi-Wan told you wrong.
I am your father.

[onions]

oh yeah, one more thing: Be ORIGINAL

[Joedward]

I am your father,
And Leia is your sister,
Happy families

[bigospedros]

original ... who knows ... here's some I came up with

Midi-chlorians
Are symbiotic life forms
They power The Force


What a piece of Junk!
The Millenium Falcon
Can hide in the trash


Stormtroopers beware
When entering Control Rooms
You might hit your head

[hatcher]

Here is my ode to the Empire Strikes Back, in Haiku

Chewbacca howls some
the Millenium Falcon
is broken again

yoda speaks backwards
r2d2 floats in air
luke does not believe

Lando's deal gets worse
Fett puts Han in Carbonite
golden droid got broke

[ccjwprongs]

Star Wars meets LEGO
and millions of wallets
cried out in anger

---

For shame, Darth Vader
falling in that lava pit there
powerful my sarlacc

---

Six films later and
thirty years or more and
so much lost lifetime

[CommanoSev]

The Phantom Menace
Anticipated by all
Jar Jar creates hate

Attack of the Clones
Unessential love story
Stop whining, Ani!

Revenge of the Sith
Last chance for George to redeem
Falls flat on his face

[GoN2Broadway]

Chewbacca growls lots.
Does Han ever understand?
Leia sure does not!

When the sarlacc eats,
Does it ever have to burp?
I hope not, that’s gross!

Order sixty-six,
Clones killed most of the Jedi,
Did they ever cry?

[SkwerlJones]

Luke losses a hand
Han is stuck in carbonite
What else could go wrong

Sixteen years waiting
That we will never get back
Just to see Jar-Jar

Jewish-nosed Watto
With his fast-talking and greed
Ah, stereotypes

[The Brain]

You can use the Force
Or battle with lightsabers
But blast the stormies!

The mighty Empire
Fighting the meek rebellion
Wonder who will win?

A correlation:
The fuzzier you are, the
Deadlier you are.

[Mister Ed]

I already won.
Why did I write this haiku?
I guess I'm just bored.

[Blacknight]

My Haiku tribute to Tatooine:

Cute little womp rats
Luke has much to answer for
Shooting you for fun

Over Sarlacc Pit
Bounty hunter meets his match
Blind man with a stick

Salacious Crumb
Hypnotized by Leia’s leg
Fanboys share your lust

[Legomancer]

Duel of the Fates
Lightsabers clash in battle
One will not survive

X-Wing in the trench
Pilot flies towards exhaust port
Must stay on target!

A-Wing gets hit hard
Careens towards Executor
Both executed

[yankeeken]

Revenge of the Sith
Cute cuddly wookiees attack
R2 ignites droids

Clone Wars CGI
Talk about a bunch of crap
It is a cash cow

Ahsoka Tano
She is worse than Jar Jar Binks
George please kill her off

[Skafte]

The greatest story
A galaxy far away
A long time ago

At first a new hope
The Empire then struck back
The Jedi returned

Most memorable
Irresponsible father
Who breathed in a jar

[stawas]

FBTB:

To build together
A site for LEGO Star Wars
From Bricks to Bothans


Great challenge, Onions!

[SuperDave]

I love haiku.

#1: Noah Webster & George Lucas

"A long time ago
in a galaxy far, far
away": see "Star Wars"

#2: Crawl IV

Civil war, first win
Stolen secret Death Star plans
Agents chase Leia

#3: Father and Son VI

Anakin the boy
Became Darth Vader. Luke knows
There is good in him.

[CoR3Bu]

Here are my Haikus:

Jabba is lazy.
He sits upon his dais.
Go walk more often!

Jar Jar really stinks.
He messed up Phantom Menace.
We all hate Jar Jar!

Sarllac is mighty.
Ate Bounty Hunter Boba.
Dengar saved Boba!

Hope you enjoyed 'em
