   "The maple syrup's full of ants.
   A mouse is creeping on the shelf.
   Is that a spider on your back?
   I ate the whole pie by myself.
   The kitchen sink just overflowed.
   A flash flood washed away the school.
   I threw your blanket in the trash.
   I never lie—I—
   April Fool!"

      Hi, Kenna, I was so busy here and there and forgot that yesterday was April foods, no April fool's day. Thanks for sharing.

   Ladies and gentlemen, hoboes and tramps,
   cross-eyed mosquitos and bow-legged ants.
   
   I stand before you,  not behind you
   to tell you a story I know nothing about.
   
   It was early in the day, in the middle of the night
   when two dead boys, came out to fight.
   
   they stood back to back and faced each other
   pulled out their swords, and shot each each other.
   
   A deaf policeman heard the noise
   and came and killed those two dead boys.
   
   If you dont believe me ask the blind man on the corner,
   he saw the whole thing.

      LOL  My grandchildren, age 9 and 11, carefully dissected this for nearly 5 minutes pointing out why it isn't true.
