A very surreal use of chess game and it’s so true Thot … I have never watched at nature in that way. However this haiku brought another haiku in mind by Basho (1644-1694) in an almost similar imagery. I have sought for the right haiku but I couldn’t find it, but here I have the haiku as I remembered it myself:
stars against the dark sky
look like the stones of Go
gods playing
Or something, maybe I will ran into the correct verse. It’s from his haibun “The Narrow Road to the Deep North” (or Oku No Hosomichi)
Wow.. I will definitely try and find this work and read it. Thanks so much. I learn something new everyday from Carpe Diem. Appreciate the effort you put into this.

Thank you… the inspiration comes from Khayyam’s Rubaiyat, no one can say it better than him of course.
