ZEUS . . . MY GREYHOUND

by LOLA WHITE

ZEUS 04/03/1993 - 09/03/2004 Bragging about Zeus is not my intention, But, now when I think, I would like to mention; His power and strength, grace and affection, always willing to please any given direction. He didnt have one negative habit, Yet some might frown, cause he caught a rabbit! The pride in his prance when he brought it to me, showed what he was trained for, what a rare sight to see. When I was sad he would bring me his toy, amazed at this sight, turned my sadness to joy. His eyes, he didnt use them only to see, They were his way, of speaking to me. to me they did speak every day of his life, sometimes they said happy, sometimes they screamed strife. Although some might think these words are my fable, I was witness to Zeus, he was smart, and so able. Only God can create such a wonderful creature, I learned from Zeus, he was my teacher. Words cant express the sorrow I feel, he was one of few, in my life, who was real. The mutual bond we had for each other, makes it hard right now, to think of another. I fight every day to think of the good, then my heart finds the places where he once stood. Mourning for him hasnt come to an end, good-by? thats too little, for a such a dear friend. My only wish I hope and pray, to help him cross on that fateful day, through my tears he heard the words I would often say. . . Its okay Zeus, its okay. *********************************************************************
