La flor
En mi jardín con cielo dorado,
un estanque de hoja cristalina,
el suave ungüento derramado,
y perfume de la rosa fina.
Densa miel que gota a gota llora
y se anega con el rocío
del ayer que en mi lecho mora
aún, cuando de ti sueño frío.
¿En cuál solar tu pistilo brota,
por el descuido trillado arrancada?
¿A quién tu ser de noche arropa,
tal la luna con gemas bañada?
Cosecho la más letal ponzoña:
de un tallo flor que no retoña.
