Mahjong Game

(Dedication: For Ann) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Take things easy with mahjong game, Watch with sure gaze discards that tell; Thought strategy works the sly frame, Let poise forge maze as moves work well. Each card you stack can fit the groove, Note how blocks spread in clusters here; Align sure knack with steady moves, Each move is read in mental spheres. From East to West, the game goes round, The dragon trail and winds that blow; Cards that work fest on solid grounds, Smooth numbers sail in sets that show. Chinese word craft calligraphy, Marbles that stray, bamboo needles; Hurl thrill and blast as mindset frees, The seasons stay power struggles. Round the table, each player treks Each counter move with cards at hand; Spread the sparkle in winning deck, Windfall now proves a lucky trend. Four seasons swirl in circle trip, The winds of change weave tidal range; Feel blocks unfurl a winning grip, Luck works things strange in web of change. So here we go round the four winds, The moments cast an active spin; Moves lost and found from thoughts unseen, Counter moves last to bring home grins. Mahjong table chat can reveal lots, So much at stake to zero in; Share bits of fat as gossip slots, Force choice in takes that hustle win. And at the end, count our winnings, Compile and see how each did fare; Did crafty blend reap fine endings, Or purse empty of small change take. Let fancy style mahjong tiles here, Mix and mingle acrylic blocks; Just for a while buzz gambles dear, Cash now sprinkles pleasant fond talk. Leon Enriquez 27 June 2015 Singapore
