They glorify the wicked fluff

They think it magical and dreamy

But I despise the cold, wet, stuff

Just give me tropical and steamy

I do not want a Christmas White

That is no special treat to me

It turns into a slushy fright

That coats the drive and breaks the trees

I much prefer a paradise

A blissful isle of greens and blues

Where multicolored parrots nest

And coconuts grow in the trees

A Winter Wonderland to me

Is far from ice and sleet and snow

It rests in Sun and Sea and Surf

Sand angels can suffice you know!

So take your sleigh rides, skates, and sleds,

I’ll take my Jet Ski, surf board, and hammock

And while you’re caged up in the house

I’ll don my snorkel and take a plummet.
