she slithers like a snake
waiting for the right moment
to strike
and say "checkmate"
within herself of course
oh no one should know
when someone has jewels,
she steals them
with a hand just like that
of a lady
when someone provokes her,
she comes biting back
and doing more damage
than they deserve
nature is filled
with greenery
how she hates Mother Nature
making this wrold beautiful
and clean
she is on a tirade
to rule the world
and deny
she's ever been bad

This is a great take on the prompt Dear Also seems you are writing about the chess game but it is a type of poem that has many meanings for all. Good luck in the contest

I like that you actually gave the snake a cameo in your piece! I wasn't too taken with the style you chose to write in ... but I think you did a nice job getting your point across...
Thanks for entering good lcuk.
