Only One
Only One (for the unnamed babies aborted in Red China)
The Red Chinese authorities strictly enforced their one child policy.
One young lady felt her baby kick regularly.
This child will be a strong one.
Not to be!
At eight months old her baby was terminated.
A bad abortion but successful.
Rule enforced, only one child allowed, not two.
You must follow the law!
Poor lady was shown her dead baby.
Sent her into shock and mental illness.
Now years later her mind is damaged.
She cries, My poor baby, they murdered him.
He was a human life, he kicked inside me.
Oh the karma!
It will repay you all for your rules and actions.
You took my baby's life before he ever lived.
Ironically, today a couple is allowed two children.
They changed the law.
