The Poem of Pieces
O mere and weak pawn!
At the end of the board, as a queen you shall be reborn!
But be careful, for your next move,
One wrong slip and your reincarnation goes BOOM!
O courageous and brave knight!
In a series of L’s, you shall take flight!
But be cautious, as on every square,
A queen attack might just raise your hair!
O sacred and wise bishop!
To the king, your holy plan you shall pitch up!
But, for every one of your kind on the board,
A mistake in your prayer could make your spine run cold!
O protective and fierce rook!
Every second, for a hunt you look!
But, in a massive effort to protect the king,
An unseen enemy might give you a painful sting
O royal and powerful queen!
When you attack, you instantly become a menacing killing machine!
But your powers would be of no use,
If you would fall into a trap like a goose!
O great and almighty king!
To your empire, splendid plans you bring!
But be on the lookout, for as you shall see,
A loss could be inevitable if you can’t flee!
And here we are, sitting at the table,
An army shall make the other unstable!
So, to all players reading this rhyme,
I wish you the very best, so you can play and shine!
