Seems like it is just a haiku that needs tweaking.  So I do, and a few seconds later send her this:
 

Rearranged your haikus to fit.  Added a syallable or two.  Took a liberty with the rules and counted "puzzling" as 3 sylables, since it is often pronounced as "puzzle-ing", especially in older movies maybe with Charlie Chan.
 
 
Very puzzling
Washing machine not working
Water on the floor
 
 
Water in machine
Do not think it is spinning
Jen says please call me

Seems like things sent from phones make great material for haikus.

Got this today from the same client as my previous post:

My dishwasher is broke.
Can you help!
Please call.

Add an "n" to "broke", combine two lines into one, and it turns into a haiku:

Can you help!  Please call.
