The March of The Chocolate Soldiers!

  

The March of The Chocolate Soldiers
by Margaret McBride Hoss

The Chocolate soldiers are marching to-day
Through the heart of Candyville town.
Down Marshmallow Street,
With measured beat,
Stride the ranks of butternut brown

Tramp-tramp-tramp-tramp-
To the roll of sugar-plum drum,
Heads erect.
Step correct,
The chocolate soldiers come!

March-march-march-march-
Not a chocolate soldier lags,
Left . . right . . . 
They pass from sight
'Mid a flutter of peppermint flags!

 
More Toy Soldiers or Nutcrackers for Christmas:
