Si pétalos sus fines no palpan...

Roberto Suárez Torres 1983 (New York)



Si pétalos sus fines no palpan
la rosa se gana su corona;
en laderas tendidas que se montan
escalones, tal palmera alta;

que las estrellas me han montado
en el amanecer que se mece,
fragante y alegre los prados,
larga y gruesa la luz que crece;

cuando se está quieto en la senda,  
manos de ninfas frotando mi piel;
un sueño la vida presentada,
en la granja de un paisaje fiel;

profundo el colmo nos dura,
tal gotas del riachuelo puras.
