Twists And Turns

I like to think chineese checker is a mindbending game ,

I enjoy finding the greatest hopping path,

I play it with family and friends

I "hop across" , eventually find TWISTS while I play,

I like to think it is a peaceful game.

No body gets physically hurt.

It 's more like a brainvit game.

Patience and silence are needed to your best,

It should be played with tactics and strategy.

It is neither orginated from china nor a variation of checkers .

It is a strategic board game ,

More than two can be it's players

It can be a "all verses all " when players are six,

I most often find TURNS, in multiple jumps.

In China it's known as Stern(star)-halma,

In Japan it's known as Diamond game

In US as Chinese checkers or Hop ching.

In France as fast paced game.

We can stay friends day and night,

On board we are enemies.

But that is just a pretend,

Off board we are friends who hope peace be owned.

Sometimes in our walk of life consist of  special moments.

Sometimes ,our walk of life may not be a bed of roses,

Life can take us in a walk of twists and turns.

But peace reminds us life is real! ,life is earnest!
