Loyal to the cocoon
From where she comes 
The Theta Woman rises out of a lavender dawn 
To proudly bridge the gaps in her world 
With her butterfly wings 

 

With honesty and courage 
She lives and loves without conditions 
Surrendering to her beauty and power 
She gives and receives freely 
Remembering her vision, her purpose, her heart 

 

Creator of her own definition 
She inspires those around her 
To be proud and selfless 
To give unselfishly over and over again 

 

Loving herself as she loves others 
The butterfly transcends 
Taking others with her in her flight
