picking your nose

picking your nose
picking your nose
everyone's always
picking your nose
because yours is the cutest,
snootiest beak
and all the other noses
seem meek, or weak
or just
insincere, somehow
So people pick yours
four out of five times
you don't even know
as their eyes alight
and light up walking by,
yep, those people are thinking:
"THAT NOSE. Yes, this
is the nose I choose
and the nose I love,
and would wish
to kiss" but
as you walk on,
brisk as the breeze
their hearts pull
and break,
with aching
ease, suddenly
sure
that this
is the nose
they will miss.
They silently bless
your distant sneeze
and vow they will not
forsake your nose.
They remain ever true,
your secret nose team.
Ever hoping to spot
your nose again, so
keep your nose clean.
