Not wishing to take anything away from this thread here - http://www.chess.com/forum/view/off-topic/merry-cristmas - I was going to post something on there first thing this morning but didn't have time - and 19 hours later - having worked without break my mind wandered to Christmas Carols and that thread and suddenly I had the two blending together in my head and this "carol" formed
Hope you like it
Silent plight, Lonely Fight
Battling wits with all of your might
Fianchettoe a Bishop in Sicilian Defence
Reposing wisely to White’s E4 offence
Look to gambit that pawn
Look to gambit that pawn
Silent plight, Lonely Fight
Look to attack the kingside knight
Move the bishop to pin the queen
Such mastery of chess is rarely seen
White’s position is now zugzwang
White’s position is now zugzwang
Silent plight, Lonely Fight
Things are looking bleak for white
Take all the pieces of your foe
Then leave their king nowhere to go
Foolish stalemate is given
Foolish stalemate is given
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE XXX
