Poetry: Elijah's cup

by Margaux Sky

Created on: March 06, 2010

Elijah’s cup filled yet untouched

The covenant of God due love and life

Four for pleasure

Five for naught

Elijah’s cup of fair result


Why Elijah, the nectar waits

For lips to press against its cup

Take us from the land of Egypt

Deliver us from the bondage servitude

Redeem us to a people free

That Exodus will be our chariot


Bring us to the land promised

For though the cup is cast away

The wine is sweet and full bodes well

Our future for a land of peace
