A POEM FOR SGRho
What's up ladies,
I don't know how many of you are members of the Golden Luv Affair group of yahoo but for those of you who aren't, it is a site where Iotas and Sgrhos can converse with each other. At our school (The University of Southern Mississippi), your sorhors hold a very special place in our hearts. It is with this golden luv that I composed a poem in honor of you ladies.
RHOYAL WOMAN
(BY MERWIN “PRODIGAL SON” BROWN)
1922, who knew that this year would give birth to a sisterhood so pure, so true?
You see, in 1922, seven school teachers decided to reach us with a vision, no better yet a mission, given to them by divine intervention
To light a torch and spread the fire of hope and desire
Into the hearts of young women so that they can see the future, be the future, and lead the future generations during a time when our nation was still facing the challenge of changes
But that was then, this is the present and it’s evident that the love you women carry in your hearts is heaven sent
You understand that the works you do, are not only for yourself but also for the community
So that the seeds of goodwill will grow fruitfully
Fostering a sense of unity, so little girls can sit and dream, “one day I want to be a member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority!”
Woman, with the strength you possess you must be blessed.
You strive to achieve nothing but the best, you never settle for less
The road you trod is nothing but a test
But you will be victorious because you believe in “greater service, greater progress”.
The fear of God is in your hearts, you answer to no man
You’re a queen to be, a living legacy, and forever and always to me……
A Rhoyal Woman
Fraternally yours,
Brother Merwin Brown.
