Thank you, I enjoyed your poem and especially the muting of the commercial with the softness of the morning dove’s call.
spring’s end

How many other wonderful sounds in our lives are we missing because of our TV habits … and especially during those loud commercials? Let's use that mute button more frequently! Lovely haiku.
