Creche: Baby Jesus

I have no idea when Baby Jesus was hidden this year.  Now the scene is finally complete

Last night I went to turn off
The Christmas tree,
The onyx lamp
Next to the crèche.
I realized Baby Jesus
Was missing.
I found Him hidden
In the table drawer.
We always used to hide Him there
When our daughter was small.
The four wise folk
The animals
The angel
Mary and Joseph
Had waited
Since Christmas Day.
The rest of us
Were clearly occupied
With different things.
Now Jesus
Is back in the manger
Again.
The crèche
Is finally
Complete
