Candies or coal?


 Tonight 

the 3 Wise Men
Caspar, Melchior and Balthasar
will get to the crib with their presents
and will close the curtain on Christmas



 Tonight

Befana
the old lady looking like a witch
riding a broom through the air
will enter the houses through the chimneys
in search of Baby Jesus
and fill kids'socks with
candies and presents
 if they have been good
or a lump of coal 
if they are have been bad

 Holiday
till Sunday
So probably we will keep Christmas decorations
for a some more days
We are in the Alps
so we can linger some more days
before putting everything
 back in the boxes
isn't it?
(M. doesn't agree with me )
