Chess Opening Move


The Birds opening move ,
What was I thinking?
White pawn F2 to F4 
I knew I would loose,
White King castled,
Diagonal weakened, 
Black advancing,
White Queen attacks,
Bishop supports,
Queen checks, checks 
Again, my Kings trapped,
Bishop compromised,
Pawns in wrong places,
Knights captured,
Queen sacrificed,
There's no way back,
White king has fallen.

Life is like a game of chess.

Reminder to self,
Every move like life,
Should be our best move.
