Here is my story:
This scruffy man sat on the bricks, his legs covered with a sleeping bag. He has a small cardboard sign that says "god bless you". I approach, and our eyes meet. Our stillness and connection is an annoyance to the many busy walkers. He says one word to me - "change?".

Very nice, @phillyc, and welcome to the world of #fiftywords! Is this your first 50-word story?
Yes this is my first 50 word story, thank you for this great idea!
Cool story of a helpless man.
Nicely crafted and great opener... Welcome to the wonderful wacky world of #Fiftywords :o)
This is a great story. Powerful and even though it's fiction (maybe), it is still true for all the homeless people out there.
Thank you, you did a great job!
Resteemed. Really like this fifty-word story.
