Nose - by Srimathi Raman


human proboscis

"A nose, kind sir! Sure, Mother Nature,
With all her freaks, ne'er formed this feature.
If such were mine, I'd try and trade it,
And swear the gods had never made it."

Nose *
~~~~~~~~~~
By Srimathi Raman
Center of the face
Is located the nose.
Decent are ears, eyes and mouth.
Never behave uncouth.
Problems of the face,
Due to this nose,
Is not at all nice.

Sneeze without a cover,
People around suffer,
Saliva’s shower.
Nose gets a nasty squeeze,
Controlled is the dirty sneeze.

Nose leaks; water flows.
Both from eyes and nose.
Worst is the case.
Plastering the nose and eyes,
Will not be wise.
Cold has no cure.
Person has to endure.
Water from nose and eyes meet.
Horrible is the sight.

Nose blocks.
Breathing cracks.
Breath emits bad odor.
Blowing gets harder.
Try try till you blow.
All around is the filth’s throw.

Healthy is the nose.
Happy is the face.
Index or small finger,
Press {should I say dig} the trigger.
Face loses its face.
Screams, I lose.
