I moved my rook towards the king and thoughtfully touched my nose
His rook took steps towards my Queen to offer her a rose
This move so bold took me aback
Was he planning to attack?
So I moved my bishop, in a sideways shift
He took hold of it and gave it a lift
This was to be his greedy fate
As I moved towards his king and with a cry
Shouted out loud a triumphant “checkmate”
