The power went off
The street was dark and quiet
One single star shines.

wonderful haiku here, aishu. sometimes something happens which leaves us seeing the world in a completely different way. your haiku captures this moment perfectly.

In your darkest moment there always is this little light.

Short, but in a beautiful kind of way. Love it!

power off
street dark and quiet
stars shine

this lends itself better to the brevity haiku aims for. 5-7-5 doesnt work in english. you can look it up. the less you leave for the reader to imagine the worse the poem is.
