Though I will need some coffee
to get through the night. 🙂
The Earl is still here
Light your soul with wine my friend
The night is still young

I wandered lonely
As a cloud that floats on high
O'er vales and hills, when.

Nah...

Tiger, tiger, bur
ning bright. In the forests of
The night. What immor.

Nah...

I met a man as I
Went walking we got talking
Man and I.

Aha, that's better, but just not quite right...

If you were a piece
on a big real life chessboard,
who then would you be?

Pawn, bishop, rook, queen?
Or maybe the king himself?
I claim a white knight. 🙂

I would be the King -
Though royalty I am not.

A pawn can be queen,
Good luck with the sex change, pawn.
The good life awaits. 🙂

Just five or six steps,
that's all it takes to be Queen?
Nah - I'll be a rook

Ah, to be a knight
To go anywhere you want --
That is the good life

For sure, mylady,
When wanderlust is calling,
It is a fine life.

Yet nothing can beat
chess with our chosen lady
by the warm fireplace.

Hi Reader! - A Knight?
I can see the attraction ...
I'll still be a rook
