    Hi Gemma,

    No rain at all? Hope it will rain soon to water your lawn §:-)

    But looking on that chess board, nothing can bet the beauty of the sun & shadows.

    Happy Sunday when You wake up.

    Greetings,
    /CC girl

    I hope that these checker pieces are not made of concrete - it would be difficult to stay 'King Me' and actually move these from square to square...

    Oh, me! Oh, my! What an enchanting image! Makes you want to 'play'! Not to mention the 'coolness' factor.

    I've heard of "Draughts" before - but never have I seen the game visualized before! Especially outdoors, with lots & lots of shadows.

    It may mean the same thing, but in Texas, that would be a giant checkerboard.

    Nice shadows on the checker board and awesome haiku to follow up.

    I like the play of shadows on the board. But since I'm not a great player, I'm not sure that I'd like the people around to see how poorly I play. Oh, I rather caught your 'p' bug!

Always remember, a sign of shadows means a sign of light.
Namaste.
