Thank you, Za Sen, for starting this thread; I have enjoyed reading the haiku already posted.
One note: the “5-7-5” rule is not considered a requirement in modern English haiku; these days, haiku often have less than each of these numbers on every line. With that in mind:
Just beyond bowshot—
barbarians:
watchfires burn.
I stand
under the Tree of Love—
I remember you.
Proud,
the new Victory Tower;
gone, my friends.
