I never carried a fetus!
It's been 43 years since I heard a doctor say...
"congratulations Mrs. D. Your baby's on its way" yes, no. 3 was on the way and my heart sang with joy.
' cause I never carried a fetus - just a bouncing baby boy!
you hear that awful saying - everywhere today.
" it's only a fetus"- it can easily be thrown away"
" it's only a fetus" - it doesn't feel a thing!
" it's only a fetus" - what good can it possibly bring!
just hire a "hit man" though you may call him "doc"
Don't listen to your conscience dear - just curl your lip and mock!
and cover your ears when you hear a baby cry
so you won't think whose near your heart
after all - a fetus " doesn't die"!
It's only a fetus - did you know it sucks it's thumb?
it recognizes mommy's voice - can you really say it's dumb?
you rock it when you walk - and make it feel secure
you'd feel it kick inside of you - if a baby's what it were!
no. It's only a fetus - keep that strictly in your mind!
close your heart , your mind and eyes so you won't trip up and find
there's no such thing as a fetus - it's a baby near your heart -
a tiny tot you'd love alot- if you'd just give it a start!
no, I never carried a fetus and I'm glad I knew it's true_
that's what's conceived, born and grows - is a baby - God's precious gift to you!

fight to give a unborn child constitutionalist rights as well as parental rights to stop abortions. claiming that a fetus is not a human and has no right to life. This poem focuses on how human a " fetus" actually is, sucking it's thumb , rocking the baby to sleep and being able to hear your voice inside the womb in hopes to get one to see a baby as an individual, rather than a object. changing perceptions and feelings on abortions and fetuses not being human.
