Fond Memories In The Womb

A surge of joyful anticipation filled my

heart and soul,

as my tiny body thrust upward, expectantly,

in the dimly lit solace of Mother’s womb.

Focusing intently to her muffled tones

that rose and fell;

It seemed a troubled conversation she held.

Quiet forgetful rest overtook me once again…

Abruptly awakened by painful pressure;

my very struggle for life.

A narrow violent passage soon,

gave way to brilliant light!

Through blurred vision a human form appeared; an alien of sorts, that stood tall in the doorway

with a gentle smile in the cold delivery room.

The Doctor held me upside down above

Mother’s pain filled form,

and boldly exclaimed with certainty...

“It’s a girl!”

Dear Mother cried with joy as she opened

wide her arms and

welcomed me with a lifetime of unconditional love.

Each life is a masterpiece, a seed with a story to tell! 

Each person matters dearly in the Kingdom of God.

Hopes and dreams are born in the garden of the womb...

Choose life dear one… share love.
