Cup

Let me lift this cup of day
to my lips, let me taste
the light, the peppered challenges,
the satori of new illuminations

Let me lift the cup of this day
to my lips, let all the moments
kiss me with their inspiration,
let my thirst be ever quenched,
and my hunger — let it be awakened

Let me hold this cup of day,
this day, up to the light for blessing,
let me drink deeply, water to wine,
and in serving, let me be blessed.
