Whippet Haiku
By Darren M.Grine
Whippet
Elegant amongst canine
Green fields of open spaces
Chasing the distant goal
Persistence
Gleaming without hesitation
Assertively brash, simply free
Independent is the whippet
Sighthound
Seasons of the past
The whippet and greyhound
Foremost a noble history
Majestic
Graceful beyond worthy
Ancient times and royal lines
Splendidly whippet pleasing
Windhund ( Wind Dog)
Shearing nature’s flurry
Intention with unrestraint
Willfully running at pleasure
