CASTLED ARTIFICIALLY!

The couple had been married for 8 years,
Overcoming the societal pressures,
They were somehow there for each other,
Amidst the rough times that did bother.

They both were happy and in love,
But they yearned for something,
The something that many of their friends had,
For which they had wholeheartedly tried.

The rush of pressures were aided by chess,
Which helped them concentrate a bit less,
On that one thought,
And a battle that had to be daily fought.

That day, That game, the wife couldn't castle,
She somehow castled artificially,
The King was still safe,
She won the game in style.

After an intense eye contact for a while,
And an assuring, beaming smile,
They both felt they knew what to do,
They were about to bid adieu,
To the gloom,
The flower was surely about to bloom!
