I have been thinking about the weird nature of love. How two people completely different from each other get together to build a life. And so I was imagining a fool meeting the month April. And together this April Fool’s Poem came out. I call it “A Fool Makes Love To April”

A Fool Makes Love to April
One Says to the other

You are such a trickster
April showers bring an uncanny surprise
People adore your beauty
It’s your sense of humor
that will be my demise

April replies
You see me like no other
I shall designate an entire day
in your name
April’s Fools will forever and ever
be dedicated to worshiping you.
