I would suggest reading reading Issa, he is one of the masters of haiku. Here is a link to his work.

Also here is a link to Jane Reichhold's A Dictionary of Haiku
Classified by Season Words with Traditional and Modern Methods

Also we can't forget Jack Kerouac

Jack Kerouac

My favorite Kerouac haiku, Jack also wrote some two line haiku using brilliant "cutting words".
