‘April Fool’s Day, Laughter and Tears’ by Christine Bialczak and Goff James

Tricks for family
Laughter is safe but silly
Make a memory

Kissing a tiger
There’s no fool like an old fool
Eaten for dinner

Resisting the fun
found in childhood innocence
makes choices real

One grows up too soon
So many tears of sorrow
Joy filled days erased
