Within You

Within you,
in my little universe,
I hear your soothing heartbeat,
my own life,
I just discovered my fingers,
floating in the warmth of
your womb,
as you gently sing
to me,
I marvel at the purring of the cat,
as she's sleepily nestled
up to your abdomen,
I'm a promise to be-
delivered to you from God. ~

A winner you are! This was beautiful . Full of imagery and soul. I felt like the unborn soul in this poem ….should have been first place. A human shortage is a danger to all nations. Its far worse than climate change which is a cash cow for leftist globalists.. And a way to control nations by fear. Pangie.xxx I am not afraid to say abortion is an evil
