En la noche entraremos a robar una rama florida. Pasaremos el muro, en las tinieblas del jardín ajeno, dos sombras en la sombra. Aún no se fue el invierno, y el manzano aparece convertido de pronto en cascada de estrellas olorosas. En la noche entraremos hasta su tembloroso firmamento, y tus pequeñas manos y las mías robarán las estrellas. Y sigilosamente, a nuestra casa, en la noche y en la sombra, entrará con tus pasos el silencioso paso del perfume y con pies estrellados el cuerpo claro de la primavera.
