And They Worshiped Him

And they worshiped him
the Magi, the shepherd
those who came before him
the Christ with us

If only more, the whole world
throughout his earthly life
if only the leaders had come
his kingdom come
to rest upon the earth

changing the spelling from “worshipped” to “worshiped”,
because Blogger and Twitter said “worshipped” is a misspelling.
