Santa is in the creche!
Cradling baby Jesus
In his mittens.
Mary and Joseph seem
Grateful for the break.
Fiber optic angels?
Hover above
On a shelf.
Germans, in the states on business,
Snicker at the chocolates.
'Billigkeit' and 'unschmackhaft'
are the words I thought I overheard.

Had to use an online translator. Fun poem. Holidays are often ridiculous, but chocolate is a serious matter, and our chocolate is truly not up to the task.
