I love to see laughter
Gleaming in your eyes
Especially when it's
An unexpected surprise
This April fools day
Was no different, of course
When I saw that look in your eyes
I almost felt remorse
You got all dressed up
In your black suit and tie
Did you ever think
To ask yourself why
would they give you an award
I mean what did you do
But you were so proud to be asked
So I played you the fool
I walked you through the door
Arm in arm we went in
But the room was empty
And then you saw my grin
I ran away from you
As fast as I could
I knew you would catch me
You were up to no good
April fools day!
I yelled and your eyes held that gleam
You wrestled me to the ground
Tickling me forever it seem
You won, he whispered
But then so did I
I looked up into his face
And I tried to act shy
He kissed my eyes
And whispered in my ears
April fools day
Then the doors opened with peals
Of laughter for my failed prank
My husband and friends knew
So my con that day stank!
