WTF; Haiku

Wimbledon -
eating cream and strawberries
rain stops play

Does this count as Haiku because you have strawberries and rain in it?
I'm not trying to be flip - my understanding of Haiku is quite rudimentary.
PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?

yes. rain is a part of nature as is food.
plus, the modern haiku is allowed to use modern images.
i could have wrote;

Wimbledon fortnight
eating cream and strawberries-
rain stops play

which would be more compact and change the cutting line.

i'm removing the word fortnight to try and create a tighter image.
