Poem: Proud To Be A Greek Posted on 01-09-2008
C Nels

This just came across my desk so I'm sharing... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Proud To Be A Greek When an Alpha looks in the mirror, Looking back he sees, A man of Vision, Stature and Integrity. When an AKA looks in the mirror, Looking back she sees, A woman of Virtue, Education, and Dignity. When a Kappa looks in the mirror, Looking back he sees, A man of Intelligence, Service, and Possibility. When an Omega looks in the mirror, Looking back he sees, A man of Strength, Heart, and Masculinity. When a Delta looks in the mirror, Looking back she sees, A woman of Sophistication, Love, and Excellency. When a Sigma looks in the mirror, Looking back he sees, A man of Honor, Purpose, and Ability. When a Zeta looks in the mirror, Looking back she sees, A woman of Trust, Action, and Ingenuity. When a Sigma Gamma Rho looks in the mirror, Looking back she sees, A woman of Care, Soul, and Humility. When an Iota looks in the mirror, Looking back he sees, A man of Distinction, Progress, and Utility. When a Greek looks in the mirror, Looking back they see, A long line of struggling brothers and sisters, To ensure our freedom and equality. When a Greek looks in the mirror, Looking back they see, The ability to change the world In each of their founders' dreams.. When a Greek looks in the mirror, Looking back they see, The eyes of a nation focusing On what this world was meant to be. When a Greek looks in the mirror, Looking back they shouldn't see, Colors, calls and symbols Misused to fracture and degrade a community. When a Greek looks in the mirror, Looking back they should see, The collective gathering of the Divine Nine To unite and encourage A nation in need Because When a Non-Greek looks at a Greek, Looking back they should see, A helping hand, An encouraging heart, And a vision to succeed. -Author Unknown
