Ode To Chess

Ah, the lovely game of chess
To make the enemies plans a mess
Then I can capture the king
About enough to make me sing!

It's great to have an activity that gives you this much joy, Joshua. Now you make me regret never having learned to play chess. Is that the only way a lady can "capture the king"? LOL Nice work! Love, Carolyn
