Al olmo viejo, hendido por el rayo y en su mitad podrido, con las lluvias de abril y el sol de mayo, algunas hojas verdes le han salido. El olmo centenario en la colina... Un musgo amarillento le lame la corteza blanquecina al tronco carcomido y polvoriento. Antes que te derribe, olmo del Duero, con su hacha el leñador, y el carpintero te convierta en melena de campana, lanza de carro o yugo de carreta; antes que rojo en el hogar, mañana, ardas de alguna mísera caseta. Antes que el río hasta la mar te empuje por valles y barrancas, olmo, quiero anotar en mi cartera la gracia de tu rama

verdecida. Mi corazón espera también hacia la luz y hacia la vida, otro milagro de la primavera.
