Enchanted and Eloped
she was short and slender
her voice vivid and tender
it beamed an invisible smile
infectious even from a mile
she was a blessing to her patients
as she treated them like her parents
she told them high blood was manageable
with diet and lifestyle changes -- all was doable
one day one foreign suitor charmed away the adorable
the one doctor whose services poor elders found invaluable
