night of the first frost
home invading boxelder bugs’
death in sudden chill
game of the first frost
garden mums lost their bright smiles
at sudden cold night
bygone hot summer
mirrored in November sky
search for the missing child

Fine examples. I hope I haven’t missed anything about the missing child

Thank you, Derrick. Here in USA, many kidnaping or murders happened last summer alone which were not unusual. Of all the crimes, abducting or killing children are especially heart wrenching; last summer, a six-year old Wyoming boy was abducted by a woman; they haven’t found him yet. 😢

I find the Haiku form difficult to read, but these are beautiful.
