Poem A Day

A Pang is more conspicuous in Spring

by Emily Dickinson

A Pang is more conspicuous in Spring

In contrast with the things that sing

Not Birds entirely -- but Minds --

Minute Effulgencies and Winds --

When what they sung for is undone

Who cares about a Blue Bird's Tune --

Why, Resurrection had to wait

Till they had moved a Stone --
