Como el cerezo silvestre que fulgura rosado en el jard\u00edn, quiz\u00e1s alg\u00fan d\u00eda tambi\u00e9n florecer\u00e9. Imagino que suceder\u00e1 una tarde al final de la primavera, despu\u00e9s de la ligera lluvia matinal. Estar\u00e9 leyendo el diario y fumando un cigarrillo. De pronto, la sangre en mis venas se volver\u00e1 lenta y espesa con la plenitud de las cosas. Me levantar\u00e9 r\u00e1pido y caminar\u00e9 calle abajo, llamando la atenci\u00f3n de quienes me cruce, para que tambi\u00e9n puedan ver como broto desde el interior \u2014las piernas transformadas en nudos de ra\u00edces; los brazos, en ramas delgadas; los dedos, en sutiles flores rosadas\u2014. Dejar\u00e9 de recorrer la cuadra preguntando sobre pol\u00edtica o sobre la pr\u00f3xima lluvia. Dejar\u00e9 esas charlas interminables sobre qui\u00e9n se est\u00e1 divorciando o si este invierno dur\u00f3 m\u00e1s que el anterior. Toda mi vida consistir\u00e1 en absorber la luz, remover la tierra, deleitarme con el canto de las aves que ulula como el viento, dar la bienvenida a las patas gentiles de las abejas que llegan con suavidad atravesando el aire cristalino de la ma\u00f1ana, dedicarme a las cosas simples de la vida que durante tanto tiempo descuid\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
