Theta Woman
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 condition. 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.
