I think you can start the poem with "was lovely" since the title nicely serves as the first line.
The Sculptor¹s Daughter
Was lovely, like a new
version of her mother, graceful
Millicent

The Sculptor¹s Daughter
is daughter was lovely, like a new
ersion of her mother, graceful
but almost silent with so few words
er best task was sitting for Dad
while he lovingly sculpted.
speaking likeness? Never,
but mute as sculptures are,
hey represent her well:
her smile, her noble forehead,
uch pain, something withheld,
hinting a lurking hope
chance of expression.
