The Emoji That Went Astray

When I went looking 
For it today
I noticed that a certain Emoji
Has gone astray!

I thought I hadn't seen it,
Skipped past it and missed.
Several times I've searched
And it is not on my list.

It really comes to something
When out of your control,
On your own device,
An Emoji goes AWOL....

It's a funny looking thing
For its eyes are not placed
In a central position
But either side of its face!

With is mouth in shock,
It somehow got away
For I can't find it anywhere!
This Emoji went astray.
