Where I'm From
  Two different types of air,
  But both I call home;
  With long car rides,
  and Christmas cheer everywhere;
  Snow on the ground,
  Ice on the lake,
  But none in this other town;
  A Christmas tree in every house,
  On every street galore;
  The Christmas chaos ensues as we try to find our tree,
  When we find our perfect one,
  We are filled with so much glee;
  Getting home past the Sledding Hill,
  Past the homes filled with light,
  In the last hours of the day,
  Until we get home;
  We get it through the doorway,
  This gigantic tree we now have;
  Put it on the stand,
  Up it goes,
  Into the heavens,
  Past even God’s hands;
  We gaze at this magnificent tree,
  That we have spent time in toil;
  To gaze back on our success,
  I can truly only say for my family,
  That I am truly blessed...
