Hilo en una tela de araña
by Coral Bracho
Un arroyo imantado por la brisa y la luz,
un transcurrir cobrizo es el hilo que fluye
en la tela de araña. Charcos de plata cambian
de unas hojas a otras, de unas huellas
a otras sobre la tierra blanda. Te veo cruzar
entre dos líneas. Lo amo,
digo.
Entre dos ramas del azar
fluye el arroyo,
su hilo hechizado por el mar de la luz,
por el licor
de su corriente. Es el agua que embriaga
el atardecer. Es el fuego que fluye
sin cesar hacia el este. Bajo su fiel
solar
te pienso.

This is such a beautiful poem. I recently took a photograph that I am now convinced was made to accompany this poem. I've featured them together on my blog:
