Prankster

I say "stinky, muddy pigs!"

And simultaneously offer you figs.

Why did your face turn white?

Did I destroy your appetite?

I count one, two, three

Then jump out to sea.

And you sat thinking "That was cool!"

But I yell "You April Fool!"

Because it was just a whim...

And I honestly don't know how to swim!

So here you are, a victim to my prank

To the point that I'd go bankrupt

If I were a bank.

But before your heart sank,

I'll give you my last spank:

A kiss on the cheek

Before you can speak!

I may have told you "I'd call"

And soon dropped the ball,

Yet I prank you like this

Because it's you that I'll miss.
