Listen to poem:
When The Pieces Decide By Robert (Bob) Moore (c) 2016 The knight took 2 steps forward, and then one to the side he had the bishop in his sights, there was nowhere to hide the queen was watching, with her king, she saw the threat now made but a counter attack was waiting, and the bishop was the trade To flee or make the sacrifice, the bishop would choose the way to take the pawn on K4, or to give earthly care away he did not want to leave the board, stand watching from the cold so he took the pawn on K4, he was never very bold. The Queen she was not happy, her plans had all been made but it depended on the Bishop, and on the Bishop trade now she would need to think again, and see what they would do be patient and wait for the slip, that would let her forces through. Waiting for a movement from the other side the clock is slowly ticking, the pieces stand with pride which one leads the next attack, from rank, or from the file The Rook, the Bishop. Knight or pawn, and cause the Queen to smile. <><><><><><><><>
