You Can Guess Where I'm From

Don’t you love the way
The snow glistens in the moonlight?
Don’t you love it when
Everyone gets in a snowball fight?

Don’t you love the way
Snow crunches under your boots
Don’t you love it when
Everyone’s dressed in their snuggy snow suits?

I’d like to say I love it all
But I’m afraid I don’t got the guts to talk
Since (gulp) I ain’t never seen snow fall
(gasp)

or glisten.
Is that quite a shock?
(keels over)
You’re obviously not a Texan.


The author's comments:
I've actually seen snow in Texas, but it never lasts. But I thought writing this would be amusing, since most of my friends elsewhere find it shocking whenever someone says they've never seen snow before.
