~ Poetry Is Not Chase Game ~ Poem by MS. NIVEDITA BAGCHI SPC. UK.

That poem has some life in it.

Your beautiful maneuvers Black or white pause over Bishop swindles King castles Rook swayed the safety Her majesty Eighth ranked pawn Word promotion Thought provocation Heart liberation

e4 d4 c4 b4 How can my Knight cross these lines before Poetry is certainly not a game Love swells and stem Melody melts and tame LOL.... Overjoyed

Well expressed.Absolutely true.Indeed it's a wonderful poem. I reall loved these lines. Puny Pawn Blink and frown. Kinetic Knight moves angular Words appear hazy blur. Rock Rook has linear move Words trove groove. Bishop airs sermon diagonal Words fly away tangential. Doped consonant King Ploddingly one move can bring. My words are not Queen With myriad bow and swing. Lovely and I really enjoyed this poem.Thanks for sharing.

hi niv its marvelous i agree with you -'poetry is not a chess game '.i will give you 10 out of 10 -adil: -)

A very nice poem, now all I have to do is learn how to play chess. See ya, Lynn.

Poetry is not chase game For me a torture tame Well-expressed truth on behalf of poets of all ages. The writing has some more value where values are very rarely practised now-a-days. Good poem with honestly pronounced personal realization. Regards, 10+ Apoet

Sorry to read such a comment in an international poetry forum, ‘I'm sorry I don't play chess.’…by some Senior Poet… Let us keep mum where we don’t understand poem … Dr. V PS Young poets may feel disappointed by such comments V

I'm sorry I don't play chess.

These words create a convoluted atmosphere, short of surrealistic idiom, simply because it moves in a matrix, of rapidly changing spatial spaces, some artist might think of dreaming this and the cells might be smaller to accomdate. I do not understand chess any how. Invariably I like the relatioship.
