PORUBSKÁ MADONA

She was driving the farm uphill when she saw him. It was the painter who painted frescoes in the church. And he looked at her. He was thrilled: "You will be the first and the tenth, you will be alpha and omega in the parable of the ten virgins." She became a painter's inspiration. After ten days, she went to church every morning and she was a model painter. For ten days, the painter tried to capture the beauty of the young ladybug with a brush. She did not come on eleventh day. She's lost. They never found it. But she was still with them. He's with them so far. For almost seven years, he has been looking from a triumphal gothic arch in a church in Porube. Occasionally see her at Klopá lúke.
