The game of chess
Is like a game of life
Make your move
Be careful where you tread
One wrong move
And you fall down
Flat on your face
Yes, this game called chess
It’s a game of wit
You have to be a fast mover
Thinker
Or you will lose!
Life is similar
Its all left to chance
Up or down
Don’t hang around
Someone might steal your moment!
This is perceptive .. and true!

Thank you for sharing. This gives me an idea for my own response to the prompt. I once read about a book by a young man with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The book was subtitled “Life Like a Game of Chess”.

Love it. I’ve not played chess, but if I were to attempt it, many of my moments in this chess game would be stolen.
