Chess

2781

Life seems like a game of chess,  

 

Be careful with your moves. 

 

Need to take each step cautiously,

 

Be wise in what we choose. 

 

Blacks a master of the game,

 

Strategic in his plan. 

 

The king he does conceal, 

 

We never know his hand.

 

Sacrificial pawns 

Taught in the way

The bishops do his bidding 

The queen she lurks and prays.

 

Black takes out the mighty;

 

And just when he thinks-

 

I win.

 

Two white pawns

Reach the other side

And take out his king.

    Life can be like that 2781, unexpected things can happen but we just need to move on into that new day every day.
