She is quite a beautiful looker a thing that she already knows <br />But one thing that does give her bother is she feels that she has a big nose <br />And each time she looks in the mirror a big nose is all she can see <br />But what she feels is on the large side does seem rather petite to me. <br /> <br />Her nose that gives her so much worry does not seem too big or too small <br />She's a young beauty in her mid twenties and well proportioned over all <br />As a school girl a boy said your nose is quite large and that put a dent in her pride <br />And the thought in her brain has been planted that her nose is on the big side. <br /> <br />It would seem she's beyond convincing that her nose not big in any way <br />The thought that convinced her in childhood is the thought that convince her today <br />That her nose is out of proportion like a huge ugly wart on her face <br />And the negative taunt has stuck with her and that thought to this day she embrace. <br /> <br />A boy for a laugh once had teased her and he planted the thought in her brain <br />And the thought it has grown and grown branches and with her till death 'twill remain <br />And each time she looks in the mirror a big nose she only can see <br />And what to her looks unattractive appears rather petite to me.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-big-nose-she-only-can-see/
