The soul of the Chess board,

The unwitting Pawns

Unique arrangement will prevail or call quits.

In this battle of wits …

Overlook them not.

Unpredictable are

Both Bishops and Knights,

Whilst stoic, Castles merely hold defence lines.

But King’s capture defines …

The end of the game.

The expendable Pawn,

Powerless alone

Can excel when working as a team, that’s keen.

One may well become Queen …

The most potent piece.
