If each word were its own line and each line a stanza... it still wouldn't really be a sestina.
Help me understand why you consider this a Diptych.
Please, I'm not being sarcastic.

I'll grant you the ending is Stevensish - I'm reminded more of Thoreau with the rest.
And there's not too much bad about that.

"we sound like nothing but the wind"
Great thought because that's our job-- to teach the wind to speak.
The "keeping it inside" is the year keeping spring inside and prolonging winter. I guess you have to live where it's still cold and winter-like in weather during mid-April to understand what it truly means.

yep. Gonna agree with you on this ONE.
You aren't making a wonderful first impression...

Not a sonnet.
This is not iambic pentameter, rather amateurish in its construction, and, above all, makes no sense.
Not Iambic pentameter. Forced. Inverted, introverted. A bad poem in general
