I am struck by the gustatory [just found that word online] imagery of "tart-sweet mornings!" I also don't often get to see an exclamation mark in poetry, and I'm enjoying this little detail.

Now, I'm imagining the feeling of a tart-sweet morning. I can sense it, but am trying to put my finger on what details it might include. Thanks for sharing this poem with us and opening up this lovely path of ideas for me, and others, to peruse.
