Savage Haiku 
Truly a beautiful haiku, honest to its roots; only I believe the mourning dove enhances the summer morning. Its call, so hauntingly a love song, brings me nothing but joy.
Lovely. Somewhat wistful. Somewhat not. Darkly vibrant, the imagery.
Interesting, your use of the word, taint. Like Mike, I love the haunting sound of them. Lovely poem and perfect picture to go with it. Hugs, pat
