PORTICO
Equivoqué el sendero de mi vida
Cuando, en la tarde pude llegar al valle,
Y me bebí las lágrimas del cielo.
Tan pronto como el alba
Vino a ofrendar al césped
Sus sarteles de perlas con cariño,
Un jilguero me mostró nuevo camino
La luz, entonces vino a besar mi alma.
Pedro Barra Valenzuela [de Chicontepec, Veracruz], 1939
