Bromeliad

This afternoon’s long walk was cut short when drizzle turned to rain at Blackwattle Bay. We sheltered at the French cafe on the point where the manager, who inexplicably resembled a pirate, told us he’d got drunk with Patti Smith on whisky after meeting her at Jim Morrison’s grave at Pere Lachaise. It was the pirate look and the whisky detail that made it believable.

The bromeliad is in our back courtyard. Two weeks ago it was a bright red inflorescence, now a faded autumnal beauty.
