For elephants whose trunks are very long,
the smells that they smell must really pong.
Giraffes have noses that are very small
and can only sniff things that smell very tall.

A platypus has a nose that’s very wide,
this means he can only smell things on the side.
A dog has a nose that is suited to seeking,
a good thing indeed as they don’t bother speaking.

There are many noses that have been misjudged.
For instance a pig’s nose all hairy and sludged.
And what of the ant- eater and the poor mole,
whose noses are constantly poked down a hole.

And then there are people whose noses are small
and not well equipped to be smelling at all.
Even the people whose noses are longer can only smell smells that smell much stronger!
