The Game of Life

CHESS GAME Chess, friend imitates life and every movement has its time and to everything the soul gives lair and all body incorporates ...            QUEEN Always unusual, vain... Eccentric and singular her force causes noise ... men fight and die for her with immense pride. BISHOP Ingenious creature, infinitely sagacious, walks on winding routes leading to the enemy not peace, but cruel death not glorious ... Fearing no harm your choice, it makes ... PAWN They are fools, poor pawns, are useless to themselves, but dramatically useful to their bosses ... They fight without knowing to which they are doomed, do not die for wanting so, but because they are doomed ... HORSE He knows how to fight, in a peculiar way ... seems to walk without paths, so do not walk straight ... Jumps masterfully over enemies, and with dexterity and wisdom runs away of all danger Towers Watch the ends, all... Never lose the bid of watch... So with security can, the kingdom ensure ... But if the tower if neglected, surveillance will be lost it will not matter KING The king knows how to be arrogant, but knows to be audacious... Do you know that the enemy is evil dangerous... The good king makes war, but try to preserve their soldiers ... Being cautious, knows that losing the focus will have final disastrous... If it is to play, hold the reins, double the fear, ride the board, as if you had ridden himself ... And remember ... chess is the game of life ...!

WoW! And I always considered chess a quiet, thoughtful, sort of boring game for intellectuals. Very well done and so much meaning. Love this. Going into my faves. God Bless, JB

Alkas, this is simply brilliant. I haven't played in quite awhile, but then, as you say it is the game of life. For me, Alkas, this brought back many memories, but still you captured, no pun intended, each piece. Decently to be read over again.
