You would not believe how I wrestled with this poem, not writing it but posting it. I realize the abortion issue is a touchy issue and has been known to raise ire on both sides. I was thinking that maybe I don't need to be posting something that may cause anguish with some people.

But then I thought, it's my poem, my thoughts, and my convictions, and I believe in my heart that God would approve. I've decided that if this poem offends anyone, let them work it out with their conscience and with their God.

I believe in my heart that God would approve.

I believe you are right. I suppose it is possible that a few may disagree, but I doubt that there are any here who will be offended. I think those who come to Amy's Place are pretty much of like mind on this and many issues. :-)

Anyway, I don't see abortion as a touchy or even debatable issue, but I guess that is because I am 100% convinced that to abort an unborn infant is murder, pure and simple. And I cannot believe that those on the OTHER side of this issue can be equally convinced that it is not.

I also fought with myself whether to keep the poem and the graphic for myself or whether to post them.

Both intrigued me because of the story they told.

Thank you for sharing the poignant poem with us.
