this vessel I call me
this flesh and bone temple
is the harbor of my soul
my goddess self

with heart full of compassion
with hands eager to assist
with mind keen on understanding
I give of my gifts

I am deserving of gratitude
I merit recognition
I welcome gifts from others
these are my rewards

I will seek my truth
I will always honor myself
I shall enjoy my life
these are my rights

my beauty is in my uniqueness
my strength is in my self-confidence
my value is in my very existence
as a goddess, as myself
