The Nose Knows<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It was said she could tell just by only the smell, who it was who had been there before<\/span><\/p>\n

She made it real clear that that person was here as soon as she passed through the door<\/span><\/p>\n

It was always a thrill when she showed off her skill and ID’ed who had caused all the pain.<\/span><\/p>\n

What a wonderful sight, for she always was right, and she claimed that she just used her brain.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But the rest of us knew that it wasn’t quite true as the photo at birth clearly shows.<\/span><\/p>\n

She was overly small, except that is not all, she was born with a very large nose.<\/span><\/p>\n

It caused others fright to view such a sight in a child that was recently new<\/span><\/p>\n

She would not be deterred, despite all that she heard, she grew up knowing just what to do<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A nose that could feel everything that was real, as it wafted by right through the air<\/span><\/p>\n

Be it roses or fish she’d confess if you wish what it was, and by who and point where.<\/span><\/p>\n

And as she grew older she became even bolder and would challenge all those who would test.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her remarkable skill, that gave her such a thrill. It was clear she was truly the best.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If it musky or foul, she would show with a scowl, that some food that you had was just spoiled.<\/span><\/p>\n

If a diaper was ripe, you had best get a wipe, for she’d warn you that something was soiled.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She also gained powers, to identify flowers, in a bouquet she was given to sort<\/span><\/p>\n

She could name every one which she did just for fun, all it took her was one single snort.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And then the day came, when they heard of her claim, that the FBI asked her to show<\/span><\/p>\n

In a room filled with smog, could she out sniff a dog, If she did oh the places, she’d go.<\/span><\/p>\n

Which is where she works still, catching criminals who kill, based on all that’s uncovered by smell.<\/span><\/p>\n

She gets paid quite a lot for the skills that she’s got and her future is suiting her swell.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So take care all you folk, for I tell you no joke, if your face sports a very big nose.<\/span><\/p>\n

For you never can know, what that bigness will show, as this story I’ve told does expose<\/span><\/p>\n

Don’t think that you’re flawed, when you should feel quite awed, for the talents that you’ll have to sell,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With the money you’ll get, all your life will be set and trust me, you’ll end up quite well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
