My Nose
I like my nose
It’s not like my toes
And not like a hose,
Not my nose!
My nose breathes in
My nose breathes out
It’s on my face
Mommy calls it a snout.
I like my nose
It’s not like my toes
It’s not like my ears
Ask anyone . . . everybody knows!

If you take the time to read a poem then take the time to let the author know you were there. Study it and form an opinion as well, even if it means going back to it more than once. That is basic critique, what Neopoet is all about.

Make no mistake...
This comment is not a bad thing, but it sounds like something a child would recite in school. Something that they would delight in. It instantly brought back to me, reading things of the kind to my boys when they were young. I love the simplicity and the fun it brings.It was the first thing I read this morning with my breakfast and gave me a terriffic start to my day. Thanks. ~ Gee.

Comments and critique are vital to this site!
Even if you just say: I liked this story or your spelling
of a word is wrong, take the time to write a line or two
and comment. Your fellow poets will thank you!

Hi, Mark,
I'll join in on the accolades to this one! I really enjoy children's poetry, Shel Silverstein is a favorite. I think children's poetry is especially hard to write - it has to be so inviting and fun, but also somewhat worthy of the read! I really like this!
Thank you!
