Family Chess

Family Chess

FAMILY CHESS...

Indulge in 'match' - paint new view;

each are 'ops' of many pleasures,

often a wonder and - what to do?

range of options: we all treasure.

Chess exercises aren't physical,

though practice makes stronger,

and also feeds the philosophical,

enhancement for the 'thinker'!

Chess may give a picture here,

another good art, one may say;

a healthy trip for mind to steer,

it's absorbing and a joy to play.

Can't force anyone to play this,

teaching - most difficult move...

but involvement leads to bliss,

join our ranks, learn and love!

'Self-taught' am, and share out,

competing/loving all elements,

friends and family...so restout,

win-draw, all are fine elements.

This is the Black and White of it!

Ewen…love this write and enjoy playing the game of chess.  I, too, am self-taught.  We had chess games every Friday night we friends and family.  There was a guy who was so superior and conceited about his ability.  I was determined to beat him although my husband was sure I never would…I studied the game for 6 months ….then beat that guy the first time I played!!!
