April Fooling Around

April Fools is on the new horizon 
When the next time the sun rises 
There will be innocent fibbing and lying 
Is it a prank, a joke? 
Or just a forum for one to stand up to insult? 
It is a whole day dedicated to giving 
Laughter an opportunity to make a better living 
Hopefully the day will be relaxed 
And nobody will face the issue of being sacked 
Beware of the pen 
With the exploding ink it could send 
Then there could be an alluring call 
That rings inside the working stall 
Look at things closer 
Especially if the reading is off the informative poster 
All in all a good little spook 
Could end up as a romantic hook 
And as time carries on 
From the flirty spring fling con 
He could walk down the aisle to say ‘I do’ 
Allowing her to reply, “April Fools on you”
