The Womb Tomb


     Womb Tomb

The baby loved the heart music of her mother to be!
She heard the water running
all over Mommy’s body and
breast, 
As she listened so ever so intently!

“One day I will see Mother’s lovely, happy face.
It is getting way too small in 
here!”
She heard the sound of soft,
rhythmic purrs.
In her tiny dreams,she wished
those sounds might one day
would be hers!

Baby Migdalia, just dreamt
thoughts of hope and joy.
A Daddy near of only such
dreams, she knew of no such
things as murder or fear.

Then, Mommy and Daddy,  
In voices got very angy!
Daddy shouted at Mommy
“We have no money to raise
a child! 
Woman have you gone mad?”

I became frightened and so utterly sad!
Can any of you, anyone, help me?
Have the courage to please
Tell them, to let me be born?

I am God’s present to them.
Not a beast of burden.
But myself and others, we need all of you 
to speak for us.
For we are the precious future.
We are your sons and lovely daughters, 
Yet to be!

Twenty-three thousand of us a day, in the USA meet this fate.
Lives ended and sent back to God’sHoly Gate.

Help us, won’t you please?

With love and deepest hope.
Baby Migdalia and all the unborn!

This is so unique, my dear friend, I've not seen a verse not even come this close to a child in a mother's womb. A fav. my friend.

Wow, Eve, I cherish you, and your commitment to life. A new law coming out of the Western States, is far, far worse than ones on the books. The USA coming close to be a twin of China...it is frightening! Merci for FAVING this. Sometimes I think, I cannot write at all and should stop taking up space. Pangie xo

"Twenty-three thousand of us a day, in the USA meet this fate. Lives ended and sent back to God’sHoly Gate." Abortion is soooo wrong! We need to change our hearts so we can change our ways. You get a Fav. for this one.

Prince de Mino..I was not going to post this. Killing babies is as easy as killing a fly. That new person running for the SC..Just kill me. Q.WHEN DOES LIFE. BEGIN. A, She said...I DO NOT KNOW. WHY, JOE! I CAN ASK MY 15 YEAR OLD GRANDSON THE SAME QUESTION AND HE SAID EVERYONE KNOWS THAT...IT BEGINS AT CONCEPTION.! We are no better than Nazis. How many are killed worldwide daily? More than die in the Ukraine! Who cares about a baby? A blot on every nation. Thank you for the FaV. A few women here do value life. But May be unpopular if they said so? Pangie xo
