HELP PLEASE!!! 65 POINTS!!

Read the poem “Vern” by Gwendolyn Brooks.

When walking in a tiny rain Across the vacant lot, A pup’s a good companion– If a pup you’ve got. And when you’ve had a scold, And no one loves you very, And you cannot be merry, A pup will let you look at him, And even let you hold His little wiggly warmness– And let you snuggle down beside. Nor mock the tears you have to hide.

Describe the tone of the poem using specific examples to support your claims. Then identify the mood of the passage by explaining the poem’s impact on you.

I would say that the tone of the poem is very calm because it is not dramatic like some other poems. I would be in a calm and happy mood because it's explaining positive things about the actions with the puppy.
Hope this helps!
