VIOLETS

Like Deltas, Violets must be individually selected
You cannot grab a handful without damaging some of them.
They cannot be roughly picked or picked in a hurry.
 
Like Deltas, the Violet is not the kind of flower that 
Shows off its fullest beauty standing alone, but is
Naturally gregarious and looks best in natural clusters.
 
However, like Deltas, the Violet can stand alone and 
Still reflect Beauty.
 
Like Deltas, despite the violet's that has passed its
Allotted time for blooming retains the dignity and coloration 
That bespeaks its exclusive culture,

DELTA Poetry
AND GOD SAID...

I'll make me a woman.
A woman of essense, a woman of pride,
A woman capable of putting trivial things aside.
A woman of individuality, a woman of love,
A woman enfranchised with the pearls from above.
A woman who is genuine, a leader of integrity,
God said... I'll make me a REAL woman;
I'll call her DELTA SIGMA THETA!!
The Delta Girl
By Soror Mary McCleod-Bethune

The Delta Girl "is one who has been given the opportunity of education and broad development:
She is one who has enjoyed the privileges of culture and selected environment...
It is pleasing to a heartfelt depth to see her not as self-centered,
not desirous of selfish power, not wanting the plaudits of people,
not wanting glory but with a purpose which directs her activities
and all that she may control toward lifting somebody else."
One True Delta by Jumond Greene

A Woman of love, peace, and happiness
With a passionate, burning dream
To become one of the women
Who wears the Crimson and Cream
Her heart, like the elephant
Is as strong as can be
While, like the pyramid, she has three sides
One side for them, one side for you, and always one side for me Her love for DST
Was evident from the start
When asked why be a Delta?
She said, �It's just in my heart!�
With the wind to her back
And God's presence there just the same
Her dream reached reality
And a Delta she became
So she will wear the Crimson and Cream
And it will be there to stay
Because she will be �One True Delta�
Until her last dying day
Delta Dream

I dream about a love so strong,
I fantasize the circle songs.
I imagine a bond that spans the globe,
I'd wear the crimson and cream robe.
I dream the dream that sisters do,
to walk amongst the twenty two.
To sit atop the Pyramid,
and dream the dreams Naomi did.
When I awaken from this mood,
I see myself as Fortitude.
The message that this dream has sent to
proudly ride the elephant.
And send to you my love Soror
for you to dream as I've before.
