What Happens To the Unborn

Where go the unborn?
no breathe shall draw in this world
no rocking or lullabies
no breast shall comfort
no earthly mother to hold
reborn miraculously

From pages the book
divine narratives bestowed
transformed to cherub angels
deliver blessings
illuminate consciousness
creative inspiration

A heartfelt featured poem, Miscarriage and loosing babies runs in my family, I was blessed with 4 though. My mam lost one that died after birth and lost one after me, 3 of my sister's lost babies but had some that survived my niece lost her first and my 2 older son's partners lost their first one. The Lord would definitely take them to heaven. all little cherub angels

touching thought you investigate here, Georgia. Congratulations on a fine piece and your win for it. I believe that they are safe in the Lord's hands and that He has a place and purpose for them in heaven. Nothing escapes God's omniscience; nothing overrides His omnipotence; nothing beats his omnipresence.

They say, the unborn go nowhere. They become what we call ghosts. Over time, they dissolve in space. P.S.: It's a very impressive poem. Good luck in contest, Georgia)
