Lazy Saturday

Family banquet
Happy setting;
Catchup conversations


Mahjong session
Strategic thinking;
Anticipate counter moves


Good game going
Card pieces form;
Deter and block


Share a witty point
Cause and effect;
Laughter echoes here


Share assorted news
Happenings of late;
Snacks to go along


Improvise card sequence
Make a quick move;
Sense repercussions


Nice sound to cards
Discarded like bait;
Then the winning stroke


Mahjong like chess
Is about quick thinking;
Luck funds the gameplan


Family setting
Play for four hours;
Luck is fickle
