Loyal Ties Often in our busy lives, We somehow fail to realize. What different ways we might have gone, If Pi Phi hadn't come along. Our pledgeship taught us many things, That work together always brings. We learned our past and how we grow, And what good scholarship could do. As actives it opened up the door, That showed that life held so much more. That friends do last throughout the years, And help when cloudy skies appear. And then on graduation day, We felt that time had slipped away. A "Pi Phi girl" had just become, A "has been" and a new alum. But once again a door was wide, And friends to welcome just inside. And service of another kind, To satisfy both heart and mind. From pledge to Golden Arrow year, These loyal ties are always here. So think what your life might have been, If Pi Phi hadn't said "Come In!"
