If man cannot protect his own species, <br />Then, who else will? <br />If man cannot ensure life’s dignity, <br />Then, who else will? <br /> <br />If man cannot preserve womb’s sanctity, <br />Then, who else will? <br />If man will not allow emerging life, <br />Then, who else will? <br /> <br />Life’s life, however big or small; <br />Life is precious to every beast and all; <br />The Life-Giver hasn’t allowed man to kill, <br />Why take the lives God-made within the womb <br />Although healthy, and not quite ill? <br /> <br />Should man not love his own offsprings? <br />Who can decide who’s wanted, unwanted? <br />God calls the unborn child by name! <br />Man should not call its birth, a shame! <br /> <br />Only the fool would spill the seed <br />Upon the ground that’s meant for it, <br />And seeing sproutlings come out, bit by bit, <br />Prevent their growth, by every means he thinks fit! <br />Why spill the seeds at all in the first place? <br /> <br />No man has rights to kill or maim, <br />The innocent, unarmed and downtrodden; <br />If serving man is man’s prime aim, <br />He can’t serve God in ways hidden! <br /> <br />No God who gives the breath of life to clay, <br />And calls these forms man and woman, <br />Would ev’r accept their right to kill and say, <br />‘Science must be fostered in every way! ’ <br /> <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 3-11-2009<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/save-the-human-embryo/
