Whippet
Elegant amongst canine
Green fields of open spaces
Chasing the distant goal
Enigma
Intriguing long awaited questions
Time presents no answer
Mystery forever binds whippet lore
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
Charming
Traits of child-like play
Darting at will for the thrill
Whimsical becomes the whippet
Manipulation
Expected demands fully met
Determination delivers abundance
Whippet appeal seals the deal
Arrogance
Impulsive deeds of self-esteem
The whippet is all of that and more
Intentionally bold, snobbishly cold
Speed
Blurry awe-inspiring images
Superior whippet forces working
Opposition poses no competition
