Sonnet: On Needless Abortions

If kill you will the human fetus child, While still in mother’s womb with begun life, You turn worse than a ruthless beast in wild, That murders its own species with a knife! You desecrate the sanctity of wombs; You turn the birth-place of mankind to grave; You’ve changed the cradle into bloody tombs; You are no better than the men in cave. The life God gave, no one dare take away; The name God called, no one may change at all; Transgressing God, you must one day repay; The Maker hears the unborn’s plaintive call! The parents who abort will get God’s rod; The nation’s ruin comes sure with God’s word! Copyright by Dr John Celes 08-18-2008
