STORY OF THE DAY - PURPLE MADONNA

One time on Hollywood Boulevard I saw
a young girl with a baby. It was a crisp
winter morning & her hair shone dark
purple in the sun. She was panhandling
outside the Holiday Inn & the door clerk
came out & told her to be on her way & I
wondered if anyone would recognize the
Christ child if they happened to meet. I
remember thinking it's not like there are
any published pictures & purple seemed
like a good color for a Madonna so I gave
her a dollar just in case.

  1. Thanks, Penny. I believe it's my second time around with this story. In any case, I didn't check, because I thought it was good enough for a second read.
