A Violation of Human Life - For Contest
A child is conceived in the womb of its mother,
where it will be nourished, where it will grow;
a place of warmth and safety.
Life begins at conception.
But not all babies are wanted and they cry from the womb:
"I am alive! I want to live! Please, let me live!"
But their cry is not heard, their pleas ignored.
They are murdered in the womb,
a place of warmth and safety.'

For Olive Eloisa Guillermo's "Knock Us Down With Your Lines" contest
