DANIEL LADINSKY: EVEN AFTER

Daniel Ladinsky (born 1948) is an American poet and interpreter of mystical poetry. This short verse is often misattributed to Hafiz, the 13th century Persian poet, but is actually taken from Ladinsky's The Gift - Poems by Hafiz and is not a translation or interpretation but an original poem by Ladinsky inspired by the spirit of Hafiz in a dream.
