April Fool

To act a fool can help you see: Much more that pools in these rough seas. Watch that plain smile that lives in lack: Yet stops a while to ease your slack. A man by choice can act a fool: Wear a still poise with eyes that drool. A touch of fest if you must know: May soothe the jest in abstract flow. A wise man walks and seems a knave: Yet what he talks can hide things grave. A fool we know by style and tact: May wear a glow that puzzles fact. An April Fool can dwell on things: Beyond what's cool in empty flings. Heed the echoes of all you feel: Sense deeper flow as fool reveals. So take a hint to see the truth: A fool can mint the wisest proof. Go on your way to see more clear: Judge not to slay a foolish cheer. Wit can look bad upon the fool: Sly can hide sad in crafty rule. Be a wise fool and look silly: Dread pollutes pool with harsh envy. A silent fool can look most wise: A kind footstool feeds fond surprise. Leon Enriquez 01 April 2015 Singapore
