The Life Of The Foetus.
The life of the foetus
Prior to birth
And during infancy
Is closely linked
With the life of
Its mother
Even to the extent
That they share
One life.
A life which is linked
To the Holy Spirit
And therefore linked
To Mary who conceived
Our Saviour. Thus,
From the moment of
Conception our souls
Bear Jesus prior to confirmation
By baptism into the Fullness of the Church.
