April Fools’ Day

He thought it would be a fun prank
He offered her a ring box

A pretended proposal

She found it empty

And at that moment burst into tears

He found himself in trouble

He was truly the April fool

Did not see the challenge Regis. I like the emotional message within your poem. it is easy to be a fool, on any of the 365 days of the year. I personally have been proficient at it far too many times. May love and peace be always with you my friend. Jon Michael

Not only did you meet the challenge well with brevity, you managed to send a strong message in the poem as well. Kudos!

I was surprised not to see more April Fools' poems. I plain forgot to write one.

Maybe we, there being so many of us, so much of the time, deserve an entire month ... Happy Fool Month ... we might have time to get it all out of our systems ...

Cute, Regis! Poor him, poor her. The only one who benefited from this prank was Regis Auffray, who is entertaining his friends on Authors Den.

Perhaps he was thinking too big,
hoping that giving her a ring box,
may seems cool, but instead it makes him the fool!
Another funny one, Regis!

Yes, he ended up being the fool! One does not give a girl an empty ring box!!! Cool writing!!

Love ya!

April Fool
some think it's cool
to pull a prank...
on others rank
They say 'lets' but not me
this kind of proposal no fun
sometimes tears do run
so, for any moment on the clock
instead of trouble that mocks?
give me Jesus!
He's my...jack in the box!

FOR REAL, NEVER DID APRIL FOOLS. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS.
