Green Flash

Most afternoons

we would anchor

somewhere safe

head up to the roof

have a drink

talk story

and wait 

for the sunset show.

We were

never disappointed.

Once I thought

I saw

a green flash

just as the sun 

wobbled beyond the horizon.

Retro Left

Retro wetsuit. Retro board. No leggie. Left. Uncrowded (maybe). Cleanish. Morning light. Has to be Tallows Beach around the corner from the Byron Bay LIghthouse up the road from Casa Greenough.

Or is it the north side of Huntington Beach Pier on a winter afternoon in 1978?
