Learning chess


Roses are red,
  the bitch and rook have brawn.

The stead and bish are agile,
  but the piece to master is the lowly, pawn!

Was there to much... "assonance"?

    Good for you!!

    JC said - "that's the same thing Gino's been saying - have you been reading his articles, or did you come up with that all by yourself?" Seriously, JC "loves your format" - he thinks "it's brilliant - you have a fan!!" Well, I say you're at the head of the class!! Thank you for your entry in my contest, and have a great day!! Peace, Cyn

      Roses are red,
      perhaps it was a guess.

      But what you doing here, girl?
      You should be playing chess!
