Toy Soldier Knee March
March forevermore my child
Press onwards admirably
foward
Should you to be allowed
and granted access
Piggyback if you can on the
wing's of solent angel buffered
kite
Whilst all the while still
remembering lest never
i forget
That which was instilled in
me and taught
Knowledge for my own
protection in order to extenuate
my preservation
Such as to keep a safe distance
between i and the sun
Otherwise i am bound
to get burnt
Matters whether or not
if one is to journey in the dead
of winter
Take untold safety precautions
drown oneself in sunblock
factor 50+ sunscreen
Because it will always be the
very last thing you never
in your wildest imagination
would even contemplate
That will steal a march on you
and so to knock your army of toy
soldier's over as well
