Poem for Today

Spring
by Kay Ryan

Winter, like a set opinion
is routed. What gets it out?
The imposition of some external season,
or some internal doubt?
I see the yellow maculations spread
across bleak hills of what I said
I'd always think; a stippling of white
upon the grey; a pink the shade
of what I said I'd never say.
