March for Life 2019

March for Life 2019

A crisis at the border looms.
Society at large presumes
Invaders never count for much
Those inconvenient, weak, and such.

So they dispose this human trash
In hope to fix things in a flash.
But when at last they clearly see,
A precious life has ceased to be.

The womb is now the border wall
For all those feared, yet oh so small.
This wall should mean it's safe within,
But that is far from how it's been.

This wall, they say belongs to me
And strips the child of dignity.
No one can govern what is mine,
So put away your protest sign.

For happiness they make a choice
Denying little ones a voice.
Indulgence, never brings such mirth
As when a child comes to birth.

And so we walk again this year,
In hope that those in power hear,
That love is needed in this time
To end, at last, this heinous crime.

A million LEGAL immigrants
This year alone will die.
Much more we need, than signs and chants,
Or just to wonder why.

An active plan that's far beyond
What ere we've done before.
A love to show that morn has dawned,
That hate cannot ignore.

A demonstration everyday
That all are due respect.
Sincerity in all we say,
Not soon, they will forget.

Lord grant this grace that we may see
One day Your will be done.
Then here on earth the cry will be,
Lord let Your kingdom come!

  1. Greetings Mark. A well-written poignant poetic-piece. If it wasn't for conflict we wouldn't have refugees! I enjoyed reading, well done. You are a good poet. God bless you my Christian Friend. Love love, Andrew.
