Acadia,

Please don't leave... just learn and have fun.

Formal rules are 5,7,5 syllables, and either a time or a place should be implied, but not stated. For example, one wouldn't say "Groundhog's Day", but

His hibernation
Disturbed, Phil growls at gloved hands
And goes back to bed

tells you what day and where you are. :) What we added for the challenge is using the last word to start the next haiku. By deleting all of yours, there are now gaps in both the structure and the thoughts expressed (since we've been playing off of those as well). :sigh:
