Even
After
All this time
The Sun never says to the Earth, "You owe me." Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the whole sky.


From Daniel Ladinsky, The Gift: Poems by Hafiz (1999), p. 34.


Even After All this time The Sun never says to the Earth, You owe me. Look What happens With a love like that, It lights the whole sky.

Even After All this time The Sun never says to the Earth, You owe me. Look What happens With a love like that, It lights the whole sky.

Even After All this time The Sun never says to the Earth, You owe me. Look What happens With a love like that, It lights the whole sky.

Even After All this time The Sun never says to the Earth, You owe me. Look What happens With a love like that, It lights the whole sky.
