POEM by a friend
Current mood: impressed
Category: Writing and Poetry

My friend Chrissy, who I've known for quite some time, wrote this poem, of interest to me, for the chess metaphors, and the sentiments expressed.  If you'd like to see the blog it comes from, Please click on my Chrissy, listed on my friends list, a very insightful woman, who writes many things. 

 

 

the king  

is a silent soul

stands with his queen of fine body

while pawns of varying strength

make way for bishops powerfully sly

who dodge knights lying in wait

to stand enticngly close to opposeing towers

surety this fortress guards me well such a marvolous way

to await checkmate        

 

Besides nice poem from Chrissy Gibson, which came back in March, JB sent email, Modesto Blues is doing a California Donor Transplant Network as the charitable donation.  I'm not involved with the festival this year, but the acts are great. http://www.JBPresents.com

my frog is still the logo for the festival,  glad John still using it.
