New Life!


Life has many problems,
And we have to accept the good and bad,
For when we are given a gift of life,
We really shouldn't be so sad.

A miracle that's what it is,
This little tiny baby!
Not a ‘seed' not a ‘nonentity',
Not an ‘if' ‘but' or ‘maybe'!

People argue all the time,
That at first it's not a life!
And this misconception so upsets me!
My heart twists like a knife!

From the very first day!
Yes, I mean from conception,
A life it most certainly is!
This is a true correction!

For around the twelfth day…
So tiny and so weak,
A heartbeat begins,
But truly a wondrous feat!

This then ‘is' a baby!
A life getting ready to birth!
There's nothing at all quite like it!
Nothing so good on earth!

So yes!  This is a baby!
Not a seed as some would say!
It is so, so why do they feel no guilt?
When they are throwing it away!

This innocent life, this baby,
Is not a seed, no not at all!
But the beginning of a new miracle,
Tiny, fragile and small!

It can't speak for itself!
If it could, you would hear it cry…
‘Please leave me alone in my warm cocoon!
Because I don't want to die!'

But it can't – not yet!!!

Will you be its voice?
