A Nurses' View
Abortion stills a beating heart,
Stops it before it can really start-
Stops that baby from seeing the Earth
Because it keeps it from a normal birth.
Doctors deal with death every day,
Sometimes, their decisions they fail to weigh
For they think not of these babies' souls-
Or what they're doing as they play their roles.
I was a nurse on the maternity ward
Before nurses came together to form a board
Who would figure out our place as members
Of the healthcare team so doctors had to remember.
They couldn't make us take part in abortion-
To me, it wasn't open to discussion-
I was pro-life from then until now,
Because to kill Anything goes against my vow.
Sorry pro-choicers, if this hurts your pride--
Think what you like but I won't lie-
To abort a baby, I think is wrong,
Let the baby live--and will hear the angels' songs.
