Barbara Barry-Nishanian Poet Rhyme

Unloved and Unwanted

UNLOVED AND UNWANTED

An embryo is being formed,
in silence taking place.
*And then is heard, the word “Abort”,
what heard … was no mistake.

What child wants to be dismembered,
in the garbage be thrown?
Sadly unloved and unwanted,
by God only … is known.

* Psalm 139” 16 “You know me through and through, from having watched my bones take shape. when I was being formed in secret, knitted together in the limbo of the womb  (The Jerusalem Bible)

Patrick Kelly December 2, 2022 at 8:22 PM Good poem and so true.it just show American cannot be a bless nation now. We are clamoring around in the dark. Evil loves darkness,

Stephan McBride November 29, 2022 at 7:54 PM Very true and sad, blows my mind how many men and women are pushing for this, I have a friend that told me he talked to a clinic in Atlanta,GA and they do over 80 per day at just 1 clinic. Not gonna get any better people are fighting against the Bible and becoming everything God does not want us to be, but maybe one day we will see we need Him, and see people are the beast that ruins this earth
