What Would She Say?

If Margaret Sanger could come back today,
And speak just once more, what would she say?
I believe she would say, in a voice clear and strong
Just three simple words, "I was wrong."

"Everyone Against Abortion, Please Raise Your Hand!"

This is a hand that will never wave "hello" or "goodbye". A hand that will never pet a dog or a cat. A hand that will never catch a ball. A hand that will never write a poem, paint a picture, play an instrument. This is a hand that will never hold another hand.
