A Fool You Are!!!

("April 1st: This is the day upon which we are reminded of what we are on the other three-hundred and sixty-four." — Mark Twain)

April 1st is the day to fool...
Using pranks and hoaxes as your tools.

The day when famous politicians will die...
And you hear that cars will now fly.

The day when friends suddenly get engaged...
And you find that news on the first page.

The day when monuments will fall...
And for a date, your 'crush' will call.

The day when spaghetti will grow on trees...
And a burger you will get for free.

think about it...

There is nothing new happening this day...
And you have been a fool, all this way.

You don’t have time to elect a leader to reign...
Busy with work, the reason you feign.

Friends will be engaged, married and settled...
And you will miss it all, busy minting the metal.

There will be riots and wars all around...
And you won’t care, safe is your town.

Like a fool you ignore what’s really taking place...
A fool lost in this life's maze.

So what’s so special about ‘April Fool's Day’...?
Is it the realization, which dawns your way?

On this day you smile, knowing you were made a fool...
Maybe that’s what makes this day so cool!!!
