Drummer Boys

Two drummer boys rapped out a beat, As bitter cold froze hands and feet Both boys in war afraid to die True battle favours flying high Praying to live, until day's done. Dark angry clouds block out the sun. With blood now seeping from the dead, Their call of duty bringing dread. One drummer boy beats out retreat. But victory was not so sweet. Two drummer boys, they carried on, Both drums in time, for lives now gone. A tribute to, the brave now slain, And wounded soldiers who remain. Two drummer boys both sharing grief Their war for glory, no relief. Those two brave boys will never meet. Both drummer boys rapped out a beat. They died amid the battles noise, Two heroes now, two drummer boys. 3/ 3/ 2015.
