My knight to glimmer sighted on the right side Once formally to shimmer on the bright tied Myself a pawn without a destination Once more to jump in jubilant libation My knight to cover far and near in beacon Once told in hard and clear my soul to weaken Myself a simple dreamer of the life game Once more to wish these wishes of a spring rain My knight, the fullest content and frustration Once bold in some farfetched appreciation Myself a single thought in endless wonder Once formally princess now daughter thunder My knight to clear the way as gently guarded Myself to make my day through tears departed Copyright Kkh 10/24/02 |

Well, I have a crystal chess board and I thought I might learn something---and I did--about love, not chess. Wonderfully expressed metaphor. Linda |

![]() (sigh) Oh Kathleen, this is just beautiful, sweet friend, I love it, and may love always be like this game and you win a scholar's mate, where together your love will always stalemate you in the heavens! (kiss on cheek) I just love this, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kathleen, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
