Tomorrow's April Fool's Day

The First of April, some do say

Is set apart for All Fools Day

But why the people call it so

Not I, nor they themselves do know

Here is a mini lesson on April Fool's Day and some vocabulary :

April Fool jokes generally involve persuading people to do something stupid like looking for hen's teeth or for a left-handed screwdriver  -or other things that don't exist. However, you can only play April Fools only before noon –if the jokes don't stop by midday the hoaxer is told :

'April Fool's Day is past and gone,
Your 're the fool and I am none.
'
