Puentecito escondido
Entre follajes y entre añoranzas
Puentecito tendido
Sobre la herida
De una quebrada
Retoña el pensamiento
Tus maderas
Se aferra el corazon
A tus balaustres
Puentecito dormido
Y entre murmullos
En la querencia
Abrazado a recuerdos
Barrancos y escalinatas
Puente de los suspiros
Quiero que guardes
En tu grato silencio
Mi confidencia
Es mi puente un poeta
Que me espera
Con su quieta madera
Cada tarde
Y suspira y suspiro
Me recibe y le dejo
Solo sobre su herida
Su quebrada
Y las viejas consejas
Van cantando
De la injusta distancia
Del amante
Sus arrestos vencidos
Vencidos por los ficus
De enterradas raices
En su amada
Es mi puente un poeta
Que me espera
Con su quieta madera
Cada tarde
Y suspira y suspiro
Me recibe y le dejo
Solo sobre su herida
Su quebrada
Y las viejas consejas
Van contando
De la injusta distancia
Del amante
Sus arrestos vencidos
Vencidos por los ficus
De enterradas raices
En su amada.
Puentecito dormido ...
