Greyhounds are a gift


Where do I begin
With this beautiful breed
Long legged and noble
Built for great speed



A rainbow of colors
Fawn, red and blue
Brindles of all shades
Which one is for you?



Such gorgeous eyes
Alert yet so calm
Watching and waiting
For the treat in your palm



And oh those big ears
That I love to rub
Soft as a down feather
From the tip to the nub



Personalities all vary
From active to laid back
They run and they play
And then hit the sack



Boy, can they sleep
I’m retired, they say
I have nothing to do
So eight naps a day



They love their toys
But they love us more
They follow us always
With eyes that adore



Cherish your hound
Each one is a gift
Their love is so special
You don’t want to miss.



In honor of Spirit the greyhound.
