Smooth yet durable skin, built to last decades
Oh, dear dependable daughter, like a trusty leather bag.
Carrying the weight of their prognosis, yet you have the cure,
The antidote to hollowness was at the bottom of your bag;
That sunny disposition you've carried since your youth.
Your imperishable lovingkindness
