"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 —


+ Emily Dickinson
