Whats Important

Edge of chair I sat and studied Chess board life Pieces muddied So much to think of-so much to do Suddenly across from me was You Settled in relaxed and sure Always the nature pure Grace and strength Swept your mighty right arm Home upon the ground did pieces find Quick a look Not chance, discovery took Each piece thought so important Laid like trash it did In front of me a clean board, clean life You leaned in with mercy and grace Your smile across my chess board life.
