SHALL I FORGIVE?

Margaret Osborn

Shall I forgive my brother seven times?
Nay seventy times seven, the Master said.
The full completeness of forgiveness
Obliterates the fault. Be conscious only
That he is thy brother.
Son of the Father-Mother ever good.
In the uncounted forgiveness of unselfed love
Is heaven made manifest.

Margaret Osborn
