Chess

The white and black squares with bishops and knights Whether English or French, just can't get right My pieces can't stand his defence There’s King and Queen, but no Prince To help me checkmate and end this boring fight

In an episode of Gilligan's Island, the professor was asked if he participated in any sports, and he replied "chess". You have written this limerick well. Congratulations on winning with this entry.

Yes chess can be a little boring at times, nice try at a limerick, the lines feel a bit too long to me, good luck
