No football today
The silent TV set mourns
But next week there's joy

Black's pawn to d6.
Then knight (white) retreats
The black night eats pawn (e4)

The hang of writing Haikus
Not so many mistakes

This is just too much
It makes me want to write prose
stories buried deep

Football? I prefer
to go climbing - not just trees
rocks and cliffs and such

Get out your pencil
Reader - find paper quickly
seize the moment - write!

The game sounds soothing
reminds me of a freedom
lost and found again

Usually d4,

It's dark round here
I cannot see the keyboard
The odd 'k' escapes

It is dark at night
Knights escape into the night
Wearing a nighty
