My Pony
My pony has four curving hoofs so tiny and so trim,
You’d be surprised to see how fast they trot along with him.
He has a flowing mane and tail, a shining coat of hair,
And when I get upon his back, he takes me everywhere.
He loves to eat the sugar that I bring him in my hand,
He loves to trot and gallop down the street at my command.
He loves to rub his nose against my shoulder, for you see,
I love my pony dearly and I know that he loves me.
