#AtoZ : The Queen

Her hard, smooth body slides to capture whoever gets in her way. One space, or clear across the board, gives her power unlike the others. She cleverly works with her lower ranks to plan her attack. To lose her makes a win difficult at best for she is the queen.

    The queen is the ruler of the Chess board, that's for sure!

    My 9 year old son has to play chess with my husband because I am useless.
    then again, he never did specifically say the Queen was the most powerful piece on the board. hhhmmmm...

    I may have to revisit this game.
    great song pic!

    I am not so sure about the bad plan and how it applies to chess. Great Q and not the Queen I was expecting.
