Outstanding haiku, Kerry!
Good concrete imagery in lines one and two featuring a distinct grammatical connection as well.
Your "kigo", or seasonal reference, is obvious--midsummer.
The alliteration in this short, fifteen-syllable beauty is exemplary.
Excellent word economy and balance.
Your final line, or satori, is a brilliant (no pun intended) summation of the events transpiring in your poem. It is the tell-tale 'Ah-Ha!' moment haiku poetry is so well known for.
Excellent!

Haikus are like the horror poetry I tried once to write lol.  It's almost as if like a puzzle a beautiful haiku comes from words tossed into the air landing on the beauty of one's soul.  Yours in this case.  Nice one mate! xx d

Losing Yourself

Snow falling softly,
I'm alone for the first time,

Happiness is a fleeting
