Where is your nose?
Over at Sticky Fingers, Tara is celebrating ‘Red Nose Day 25th anniversary’ She has also drawn our attention to Team Honk. So this week the Gallery is all about noses and silliness!
BE GLAD YOUR NOSE IS ON YOUR FACE
Be glad your nose is on your face, not pasted on some other place, for if it were where it is not, you might dislike your nose a lot.
Imagine if your precious nose were sandwiched in between your toes, that clearly would not be a treat, for you’d be forced to smell your feet.
Your nose would be a source of dread were it attached atop your head, it soon would drive you to despair, forever tickled by your hair.
Within your ear, your nose would be an absolute catastrophe, for when you were obliged to sneeze, your brain would rattle from the breeze.
Your nose, instead, through thick and thin, remains between your eyes and chin, not pasted on some other place– be glad your nose is on your face!

Great poem and love the picture..
*tweaks nose*
Reminds me of “when God gave out noses I thought he said roses and I asked for a big red one.”
I’m going to share this poem with my little boy – he will love it.
the image is a little bit scary!
Can you imagine waking up one morning to find your nose has relocated? The stuff of nightmare.The imagery had me giggling like a school girl. Most entertaining and well done.
This was great!
Love it. Thanks for sharing x
Beautiful piece! I’m glad my nose is on my face and even if I had a choice, I know of no better place! 🙂

Excellent – such a great poem and yes, just the sort of silliness that is required!
Such a fab poem, I wouldn’t mind my nose being on my feet as they smell of roses 😉 x
All the time??? !
That is brilliant imagine if your nose was facing upwards on your head you would drown in a rainstorm
Or on your elbow it would all ways be flat .
Great thanks for sharing
My pleasure! Thought it was a bit of fun for Feb!
