Abortion poems-(PLEASE NOTE-Some people, especially those who’ve had an abortion, may find this poem disturbing.This poem is not intended to condemn but to highlight the horrors of abortion and in emotional terms the abortion cost.)

Abortion poems can touch the heart and soul and there follows a beautiful and thought provoking abortion poem  called “My Little One” (by Michael Healy).

As you read the following abortion poems please join us in global prayer that ALL who are involved in the modern day ‘slaughter of the innocents’ may be given enlightenment, understanding and above all, openness to the Holy Spirit.

May they turn back to their loving Father in Heaven who loves them and wishes to say to them,

“Bring out the best robe, and clothe him in it; put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet” (Lk 15 v22) and may they ‘see’ the truth of their actions and return in conversion to the God who loves them and wishes to forgive them.

We pray at the siege of jericho that Herod’s modern day massacre cease in our own lifetimes.

(Please note-some people, especially women who’ve had an abortion, may find this poem disturbing. This poem is not intended to condemn but to highlight the horrors of abortion and in emotional terms, the cost of abortions worldwide to the human race).

MY LITTLE ONE

Today I think of you while I am weeping

And slowly count the lost and empty years;

If you had lived, it would have been your birthday,

Though every day, in truth, is filled with tears.

I try, of course, to think of other matters,

To dust and clean and wash away the pain

And yet the more I try to push you from me,

The deeper in my heart do you remain.

What colour were your eyes, your hair I wonder

Your little ears – what shape would they have been?

I want you, seek you, yearn so much to hold you

But in my searching mind you stay unseen.

If I  had known upon that day the future,

If I had felt the torment I would bear,

If I had not then let them take you from me,

I would not now be slave to this despair.

Within that room of death and dark and coldness

The devil surely did exultant dwell,

For was it not indeed the very annex

Adjacent to the icy halls of hell.

And is it my imagining, I wonder,

When first you felt that sharp, satanic knife,

You cried to me in fear, “What’s happening, Mama?

I beg you, help me … help me … save my life”.

It is a world become malign and shadowed

Where forces cruel, depraved, demonic reign,

Where those who are most innocent and helpless

Are cast away like winnowed husks of grain.

They talk of “women’s choice” and “women’s freedom”

And claim the right to life is theirs alone;

They blind their eyes to those who still lie hidden

Within the womb that they, themselves, have known.

All joy, all hope, all human warmth must perish

When pity, love and trust are thus betrayed,

When frozen hearts and callous hands accomplish

A work that dares destroy what God has made.

And it is He, the Lord of Life, who formed you

And cherishes you now, my little one,

Who will, upon that day when all shall tremble,

Ask why it was this piteous deed was done.

Views on Abortion Article-Mother Teresa was a woman filled with the love of Christ and Heavenly wisdom.

Jesus, her spouse, was the SOURCE and SUMMIT of Mother Teresa’s wisdom and so these views on abortion presented below echo Christ’s own words on this emotive subject in our ‘culture of death’ as Pope John Paul used to call it…..

• “Any country that accepts abortion is the poorest of the poor”

• “If we can accept that a mother can kill her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?”

• “Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use violence to get what they want. That is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion”

• “Any country that accepts abortion is the poorest of the poor” (USA think again about your ‘wealth’)

• “Many people are concerned with the children of India, with the children of Africa where quite a few die of hunger, and so on. Many people are also concerned about the violence in this great country of the United States. These concerns are very good. But often these same people are not concerned with the millions being killed by the deliberate decision of their own mothers. And this is the greatest destroyer of peace today- abortion which brings people to such blindness.”

• “The way to plan the family is natural family planning (author’s note: which is 98% effective) not contraception. In destroying the power of giving life, through contraception, a husband or wife is doing something to self, and so it destroys the gift of life in him or her. Once that living love is destroyed by contraception, abortion follows very easily.”

• “It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you live as you wish”

• “I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child, a direct killing of the innocent child, murder by the mother herself.”

• “We must remember that life begins at home and we must also remember that the future of humanity passes through the family”

• “By abortion the mother does not learn to love, but kills her own child to solve her problems. And, by abortion, that father is told that he does not have to take any responsibility at all for the child he has brought into the world. The father is likely to put other women to the same trouble. So abortion leads to more abortion.”

These views on abortion make us sit up and think about what is really going on every day of every week in our countries often in a legal manner.

Mother Teresa was a prophet for the 21st Century speaking God’s word into an ever changing world.

“Blessed Mother Teresa please pray for us and bless the siege of jericho prayer campaign and all who read and contribute to this Site in any way by deed, prayer and support. Amen”

abortion poem

The following abortion poem “Mummy is Sorry” is beautiful, touching and healing.

This poem is from a mother to her child in Heaven and was inspired during prayer to the Lord.

 

“Mummy is Sorry”

Mummy is sorry,

You weren’t planned.

You weren’t meant to come into my life, just yet.

I wasn’t ready for you,

I couldn’t cope.

I didn’t think I could give you all you needed,

A mother’s total love,

A mother’s devotion.

You seemed more of an intrusion

On my planned and ordered life.

But now I’m sorry.

I snuffed out your life,

Before you saw the light of day.

I didn’t want you in my life,

I wanted my own way.

Circumstances weren’t right for you

To come at this time,

But now I’m sorry.

I wish I could sing you a nursery rhyme,

I wish I could bring you back.

Into a life that was ready for you.

I’d like everything planned and perfect,

Not messy and out of sync.

Why then does my heart feel so bad?

Why do I feel so guilty?

Surely you were not really like a proper baby,

You weren’t fully formed,

Ready to live an independent life;

Ready to live outside the womb.

But you would have been,

If I hadn’t stopped you in your tracks,

And stopped your heart beating.

Mine still beats…

No one has stopped my heart.

Yet, my heart is filled with pain,

And is missing your heart beating inside me.

What have I done? Can you forgive me?

Can you forgive your own mother,

Who was meant to give you life;

Protect and nurture you?

How I have betrayed you!

Can God forgive me?

I, who have destroyed,

One of his little ones.

A defenseless babe in the womb.

Now, I will never rock you in my arms,

Now, I will never see your first smile,

Or see your first steps.

I will never hear your first words or

Hear you call out, “Mummy.”

My child I am sorry…

Can an angel take my words to my baby in Heaven?

And take away this pain and regret in my heart?

Can an angel enfold my child, in the love that I have,

Deep in my heart, for this, my child, alone.

A mother’s love, a special love,

That only a mother can give?

My child you are separated from me,

Now in the physical world.

But you can never be severed

From me completely.

Because death can never separate us.

Your death doesn’t mean

I’m no longer your mother or

You’re no longer my child.

As soon as you were conceived,

There was the relationship formed;

And it exists now for all eternity.

One day we will be re-united,

And I will be able to tell you face to face;

How sorry I am for having betrayed you.

Please forgive my human weakness, my ignorance

In not fully realizing what I was doing;

And the devastating consequences

That have come about.

God, I am sorry for destroying,

The gift of life within me.

For ending a life that was not

My right to do so.

Please forgive me,

Take care of my little one for me.

I place my baby in your arms

For you to look after.

Until the day I reach Heaven,

And can hold my own baby in my arms.

And kiss him on the forehead,

And let him feel my deep love.

And all will be well, once more.

Amen

abortion poem

In pictures and videos we recall the powerfully blessed first 40 Days for Life, pro life walk in Birmingham Town Centre, UK on Mothering Sunday, March 2012.

Christians praying in unity for an end of the evils and horror of abortion in our societies is very powerful.

We began the Pro Life  March at St Micheal’s Church, Moor Street and processed up New Street saying the Rosary and the Divine Mercy Chaplet and singing hymns.

The March, which was well attended considering it was Birmingham’s first one, congregated outside the Birmingham Council House for a prayer service. At the end, we let all the pro life balloons drift into the air  as a sign of our freedom as God’s children and for the little ones, their love and giftings having been lost to this world that didn’t want them.

Join us in spirit and in thanks to God as we mark the Walk in pictures and video.

Note-The Pro Life March was organised by the 40 Days for Life Pro Life Campaign which has just completed its second successful prayer vigil campaign outside the local abortuary in Birmingham, UK. These great movements of the Spirit are the fruit of long years of prayer and witness from faithful Christians outside Birmingham’s main abortuary and throughout the world itself!
