Explanation:

The term diction refers to the words and phrases the author uses in order to convey certain ideas in a text or speech including novels, presentations or poems. In the case of poems and literary works, this selection of words, phrases and in general terms language create a unique writing style and is usually linked to other elements such as the level of formality, the attitude of the author towards the topic described (tone),  the atmosphere the author creates in the literary work (mood) and the way character is presented (characterization). This also implies when describing or analyzing the diction of a poem or any other literary work the focus is the way the author uses certain language to convey or express an idea. Considering this, the sentence that describes a poem's diction is "The speaker shows his sarcasm by using the word ridiculous to describe may" because this sentence focuses on the selection of word which in this case is "ridiculous" the author uses to convey a specific idea "description of may", which is exactly what diction is about.
