None but You can create the mystery of life
And death that touches every blade of late-summer grass,
That spreads over the late-flowering fields of daisies and blazing stars
Through which we view the jagged rock formations in our hills.

Note. You probably are familiar with the traditional mi kamokha prayer or song. This little liturgical poem is called a mi kamokha and is meant to be sung or recited after singing the traditional one. Like the mocha beverage, the mi kamokha prayer and poem are meant to give you a jolt, in this case energizing your appreciation of the splendor and beauty of life throughout your day and maybe even into the evening.
