Jayde - The Dog

“Hello from Jade!” From me - a dog,
Who likes to bark, who likes to jog.
I live at school, I have ten friends,
Ten girls and boys with lots of pens!
Oh, my mistake, I missed ten more,
More girls and boys just passed the door.
Some smell like cupcakes, some like clay
They say they take me home today!
Hooray! Sweet home and my new bed,
I am so full from being much fed.
I float to sleep at once again,
My best friend's here - what a day!
And hugging warm and cosy pillow,
I close my eyes and see white willow.
'What else can plush toy dream about?'
Jade, classroom dog, just asked aloud.
