Trianna wrote us on her inspiration: “I enjoy sharing my words about anything though poetry. I have been writing for about two years now, this poem just came to me one day riding home from church. The idea popped into my head, “Wow wouldn’t it be awesome to write a poem about something that is important and necessary (to show) how bad abortion really is.” I figured at first that writing this was going to be difficult, but it turns out I knew a lot of reasons why someone shouldn’t abort. I am definitely pro-life, I have been since I was born. I mean if my mom could be able to give birth to me and give me life, why shouldn’t other babies in the world get that chance? I hope that this poem emphasizes that point and spreads the news everywhere to not abort, but give life!” Note: Please do not use this poem without permission.  | Have an event to post to the Bulletin Board?
