Abortion is a heinous sin
Perpetrated on the hurting;
Not only is it harmful now, but
With eternal death they’re flirting!
God’s alternative is obscured,
But murder is never mentioned;
The would-be mother is misguided
By those who seem well intentioned.
Planned Parenthood is a misnomer
Since a birth seldom takes place;
The abortion industry sails along
With paid operators flouting grace!
The mother-to-be is blithely assured,
“Soon it will all be over”,
But emotional pain and sleepless nights
Are yet for the victim to discover!
Viewing the baby in the womb
Is seldom offered, if not obscured;
Many are those who would vacillate,
And continuing abortion is not assured!
Many who are carrying a baby within
Do not realize a little person’s involved;
When allowed to see its features,
The problem is not easily solved!
Multiplied millions have been killed,
With abortionists being highly paid;
They bank their ill-gotten funds,
With guilt on the mother-to-be laid!
For years, the scars of abortion are endured
Giving the lie to its soon being past;
Those ladies who would have been mothers
Have emotional scars that are vast!
Though God has an alternative to abortion,
It is usually known in retrospect;
Meanwhile, coming to grips with sin
Is known only by the circumspect!
God is not the author of abortion,
But He has an answer for the deceived;
His arms are open to the penitent
Who are forgiven when they’ve believed!
Though the scars will always remain,
Victory and peace are their portion;
The blood of Christ and His risen life
Will soften the certain aftermath of abortion!
C. R. Solomon
