Nose Warmer

By Stephanie Stanglin
Woodstock Union High School, Grade 10

I hop inside and slowly defrost
Sitting for minutes on end
Waiting and waiting and waiting
Slowly feet, hands and body warm up
Oh but my nose is so cold
Wish there was something
Ta Da!! The nose warmer!
Heats the face
And stops a running nose
And all is right with the world

I would totally buy that!

My nose gets sooo cold, sooo easy! In the winter time when I'm all bundled up I feel pretty cozy and for the most part warm... except for one place: my nose. If some one invented a nose warmer, that was comfortable, and not completely silly looking, I would totally buy one... or more because I lose things a lot lol. Great idea!
