The Nose Knows

A snowman stands outside in the snow
  But no nose has the snowman to show
 Now the snowman can't sneeze
 So the snowman says please
 "Give a snowman a nose he can blow!"

Yes!! Please give the poor Snowman a Nose. :) I love everything about this. I am smiling and giggling at the same time. You have created a Masterpiece. You need a photo with this, then print it out and place it in a frame. It's sooooo cute!! Congratulations Joseph, on this win. I am saving this in my favorites. :) Brandy

Very clever. This should place. Just as a suggestion your 2nd line might read more smoothly if you move 'has' so it's before 'the snowman".
