What if the seed was not fertilized with love?
What if it was feritilized with rape and hate?
What about my mummy?

I've lost many a babe. I know the shadow cast by their absence. I have learned the sacredness of life and this is a wondrous write, Peter. But what would you say to a nine-year old girl who was a victim of incest and pregnant? A chronically ill woman who would die carrying a child? Would you allow a woman's embryo growing in a fallopian tube to continue to grow and kill her? What of a mentally challenged woman victimized by rape? These are the questions that plague my mind. With respect...

((((Powerful sentiments, Peter )))

I feel extremly proud to say all life whether it's in the womb or born is SACRED.... All life feels, all life see's, all life dreams for a better life... We are the miracles God has made. My prayers have always been to support the life of the unborn, they are the most innocent ones. And so I pray a day comes soon where all life will be safe by law in every state. Your a true humanitarian for justice for God's children..Your rewards in Heaven are so many Peter...Keep teaching truth, justice, divinity and social causes for peace on mother earth.

Peace & Love, Dove

Oh Lord Peter!

What a powerful call to remember the delicate fields from which we all sprung.

Bcause of these heinous acts, done in the name of mammon and free will, there will be a reckoning someday for all the wanton death of the innocents.

This was very touching and, I imagine, deeply felt in the penning.

Amen, Peter,

What a powerful, compelling poem! Thank you on behalf of the unborn, who have no voice in the matter. You and Michelle Kidwell can change the world with writes like this; well done! The last stanza particularly effective.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
