Christmas In the Desert

snow up on the mountains
but none down here below
it doesn't stop the spirit
Christmas will still glow

it still is kind of silly
to see snowmen on the street
and all those electric reindeer
once a midwest treat

a yule log on the fire
to keep the chill away
while we open presents
and celebrate the day

Christmas in the desert
the best that I have known
traditions I brought with me
Christmas spirit will still glow
