Robert A. Dufresne Poet Tetractys

Preborn In the Usa

.                           
.                             You
                          and your
                        brothers and
                      sisters are now
  missed most dearly, one million strong yearly.
        'tis more than a loss, t'is a holocaust.
                     Wisdom dictates
                         love is life.
                           We miss
                              you.

Carolyn Devonshire January 26, 2010 at 12:41 PM So sad that so many of the unborn are also unwanted, Robert. Excellent use of the tetractys form to convey a powerful message. Love, Carolyn
