Silent Scream

At the moment of conception a miracle happens
When a spirit is joined with flesh;
The heart starts to beat and blood begins flowing
As the baby and soul enmesh.
Yes, the fetus is a living and hopeful being,
Looking forward to a life on earth.
What changes would we see on this earth today,
Had all been allowed natural birth?
But millions of babies are senselessly slaughtered
For the crime of being unwanted.
While the Liberal's carp, "It’s a woman’s choice!"
And into the trash heap they’re shunted.
The soul within the baby screams,
"Please, give me a chance at life!"
But the silent screams of the unborn child
Are muted by the surgeon’s knife.
They tell themselves, "The fetus can’t feel."
As it’s torn from the mother’s womb. A
nd this miracle from God is cruelly murdered
With a Dumpster for a tomb.
