Noses

A nose is called many names Some of them quite funny Sometimes they are spotty And often very runny If you are unlucky you could have a bulbous nose I would rather have a slender one, that's choosy I suppose Roman noses are much larger and inclined to bend Retrousser ones are saucy and turn up at the ends Prominent noses stand out and can be very long Hooters are another name that sounds more like a gong A pig has a strange nose it is called a snout It's not like other noses it's flat and don't stick out An elephants nose is called a trunk it looks more like a hose It is very useful as well the elephant knows Then there's the proboscis monkey with his extraordinary sense of smell They can use their schnozzle to find a boy or girl There are lots of other names like sniffer, bugle, pug I bet you've read enough of this so i'll pull out the plug
