we
light
a candle
another year
asking for mercy
a prayer walk for life
silent memorial for unborn
53 million taken before their time
ripped or salted from mothers’ wombs
medical professionals under hippocratic oath
who profit from selling spare body parts
hearts grow cold as a january night
boots tramp uncleared sidewalk
while 53 million snowflakes
sparkle as tiny diamonds
under a misty moon
frozen tears
of love
lost
