I think they're great!. Your poems usually are!. The chess motif is perfect for the "warlike" Japanese whose style the Haiku is!.
You echoed a universal trait in the simple yet poignant second piece!. Are you Japanese by any chance!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

they are great!. the chess one is simple, but it makes you think of a war and representation that each piece has!.

the grandbaby one is cute and it reminds me of my family!. :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
