The Greyhound Poem (Author Unknown), GREY2K USA Worldwide
The greytest thing I've ever known,
Someone came and took me home!
I'm away from the track;
Hope I never look back!
Like a nightmare in my memory, my future looked black.
Then I was adopted & my life was spared.
I thank God every day that someone cared.
This must be heaven, I'm a winner this time,
Got a ball, a bone and a bed that's all mine.
I'm crazy about my family, devoted you might say.
Like a shadow beside them, you bet I want to stay.
I am special too, they call me "sweetheart,"
They hug me & kiss me & tell me I'm smart.
Even dreams are more peaceful; no stress, no strife.
NOW I RUN FOR FUN AND NOT FOR MY LIFE!
