The Prayer of the Outsider
(A little old lady whispers all alone in the cold. Looking up at the rain filled sky.)
Dear God
You brought me to life from nothing
To try to do something
To share kindness
Compassion and a light for those in the dark
To follow
Then to return home with stories
When my bell you ring
To hear me stand and sing aloud
In the Holy Circle
About all the things I did when I was once alive
In the living gardens of mankind
So keep giving me strength to keep doing so
As I go
Amen

Foundation of the piece.
In a new society slowly receding away from praying, do those who still pray, only come from the expected backgrounds?
Example.
The more mature generation.
