Noses - By Aileen Fisher

I looked in the mirror and looked at my nose;
it's the funniest thing,
the way it grows.
Stuck right out where all of it shows
with two little holes where the breathing goes.

I looked in the mirror and saw in there
the end of my chin and the start of my hair,
and between there isn't much space to spare
with my nose, like a handle, sticking there.

If you ever want to giggle and shout
and you can't think what to do it about,
just look in the mirror and then, no doubt
you'll see how funny your nose sticks out.
