April Fools' Day

Today’s a time for breaking rules And telling jokes and playing pranks, Since it’s the day of April Fools; For warning you, I need no thanks. Just be aware of what you hear Or what you see or even read. On April Fools’ the atmosphere May swirl around with smiles we need. The weather even seems confused – First rain, then sun and later, storms, With Mother Nature quite amused As coats are shed from wind that warms. Right now I’m soaking up the sun; My calendar is newly flipped. For what takes place ‘til day is done, I think I’m fairly well-equipped.

The weather has April fooled me all over the place this year - eighty degrees and 35 degrees in the same two day span.
