Poetry

When He hanged tortured and exhausted on the cross,
when the eyes of a crowd of people was on Him,
when He was scolded and cursed,
He longed for His Father
 
and when man harassed God
He wanted to only bring forgiveness to them
with a kind of love that pierces everything
as if He did view them through other eyes:
 
with “Father, forgive them,”
He reconciled God and man.
