Talented and Tender
Talented and gifted is this young lass
In skating, she's a rising star.
A great work ethic she also has
And these two traits will take her far.
But a tender heart she also does have
And a desire to give back to others,
So she's planning an Ice Show to support cancer research
And to also honor her Grandmother.
Often sorrow and pain birth a new life
Turning grief into doing some good,
For energy and purpose are now engaged
And life now looks, as it should.
So her Grandmother is being honored,
At this Ice Skating event today.
The goal is also to support cancer research
To help eliminate cancer someday.
So I honor this talented young lady
And I encourage you all to join me,
To see these young skaters 'Skate for the Cure'
Will be something very special to see.
