Here is one that I adore!!!

Phenomenal Sigma
By: Rock`s Poetic Justice
Adapted from Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou


Young Lady have you looked at a sorority? Well look no more I am here for you to see, Think each organization is simply the same? Just think again it`s all in our name. I say it`s in the community work we do, the lives we change, the chosen few, I am a Sigma woman Phenomenally, Phenomenal Sigma That`s me!

I walk with great pride, Don`t mistake it for conceit, When others see me, they smile, wink and say I`m unique. I say it`s in the pride of my steps, the smile that is kept, the love that`s exhumbed, the positive light I bring to a room. I am a Sigma Woman Phenomenally, Phenomenal Sigma that`s me!

The other Sororities have wondered what you see in me, They look real hard but can`t see what you see. When I try and show them they think I`m crazy. I say, it`s in my positive attitude and upbeat song, My confident look with the special attention I took. I am a Sigma woman, Phenomenally, Phenomenal Sigma that`s me!

Now you can understand just why I`m so proud, I don`t need to brag or boast or scream it aloud. Sigma Gamma Rho is in my heart and in my soul, According to me, it`s the only way to go. I say it`s in the work that I do, the words that I say, the children I affect in that special loving way. The elderly I care for, teaching others to do the same, The respect I give to you by simply remembering your name. Cause I`m a Sigma Woman,
PHENOMENALLY,
PHENOMENAL SIGMA,
THAT`S ME!!

I really like the poem: "I Am My Sister's Keeper" by Sorhor Madelyn Leeke.

Sorhor Leeke actually has a book of poems and the title of her book of poems is - "I Am My Sister's Keeper"

A Sigma Woman Is:

A woman of any race, creed or color

A woman of outstanding character and more than an ounce of integrity

A woman who is dedicated to community service and scholastic attainment

A woman who is not afraid to "Dare to be Different"

A woman who is willing to accept the challenges of everyday life and then some

A woman who has a positive spirit and potential for leadership

A woman, who is above all else, dedicated to serving the human race
