MP Board Class 5 English Reader Chapter 11 My Dog
I do not love my dog because
He's good at doing tricks,
Like standing on his two hind feet
or fetching balls or sticks.
I do not love my dog because
He is gentle and polite,
And barks to drive away the things
That prowl around at night.
I do and love my dog because
He really is quite fine,
But oh, I love my dog because
I'm his and he is mine.
-James S. Tippet
