Cups

Ace of Cups is a brand-new start,

Tiny splash in a waiting heart,

Little ripple, silver shine,

Saying, “Love could grow in time.”

Two of Cups goes hand in hand,

Equal hearts that understand,

Mirror feeling, steady beat,

You and I in rhythm sweet.

Three of Cups says, “Lift it high!”

Laughing under open sky,

Friends in circles, bright and loud,

Joy is singing through the crowd.

Pour it up, let it spin,

Let the tide come rushing in,

Tip the glass and feel it rise,

Water dancing in our eyes,

From a spark to oceans wide,

We’re just learning how to ride,

Ace to King, let’s dive right in—

Let the Cup song begin!

Four of Cups with folded arms,

Missing out on hidden charms,

Blessings floating by your side,

But you let them slip and slide.

Five of Cups sees what is gone,

Stares at dusk instead of dawn,

Turn around, there’s hope to claim,

Two still standing in the frame.

Six of Cups in soft rewind,

Simple days you left behind,

Kindness wrapped in memory,

Sweet and safe as it can be.

Pour it up, let it flow,

Feel it high and feel it low,

Every drop has got a part

In the beating of your heart,

Spill or fill, we grow within,

Lose a little, learn to win,

Ace to King, we’re traveling—

On the tide we’re sailing.

Seven Cups in misty air,

So many dreams floating there,

Shiny castles, grand disguise,

Better choose with open eyes.

Eight of Cups walks out slow,

Leaving what you used to know,

Trading comfort for what’s true,

For a deeper point of view.

Nine of Cups with steady grin,

Satisfied from deep within,

Wish fulfilled and standing tall,

Grateful for it, one and all.

Ten of Cups in rainbow light,

Everything is feeling right,

Shared emotion, safe and strong,

Home’s the place where hearts belong.

Fill it up, let it ring,

Hear the silver glasses sing,

From the first drop to the crown,

Feelings lift and settle down,

Laugh and ache and lose and trust,

Every wave is teaching us,

Ace to Ten, the current swings—

Now the court steps in!

Page of Cups with open grin,

Wonder bubbling within,

Little message, soft but clear,

Magic says, “There’s more right here.”

Knight of Cups in velvet stride,

Chasing what he feels inside,

Promise written in the air,

Romance moving everywhere.

Queen of Cups, calm and bright,

Holding space with gentle might,

Feels it all but stays so wise,

Truth reflected in her eyes.

King of Cups, steady hand,

Ocean-hearted, understands,

Storm or sun, he keeps his art,

Balance ruling from the heart.

Pour it up, let it sing,

Feel the splash of everything,

From the seed to sovereign rings,

Love is what the water brings,

High and low and in between,

Every shade of blue and green,

Ace to King, now you know—

That’s how Cup hearts grow.
