This piece is a tribute to her lively mother who That only the process of elimination revealed Grandma B! “That’s my girl, have yourself a ball, Shay.” passed away on Halloween. Shared Stories is a weekly column featuring It was the night I didn’t do any apple bobbin’ articles by participants in a writing class at the Norwalk Senior Center. When I told Steve I was writing on the subject of Halloween It was also the night I didn’t do any tear dobbin’! Bonnie Mansell is the instructor for this free class offered through the He then reminded me of the following scene. Cerritos College Adult Education Program. Curated by Carol Kearns He responded to the knock at the Creedmore door From those heavenly places, I know Mom was looking down And could never even guess what he was in for. On her Shay the witch, on her Shay the clown. By Sharon Benson Smith There stood a colorful though shabbily dressed gypsy I recall at this moment, and I don’t know why She arrived all alone – now who could this be? The picture of a clown with a tear in his eye. I had dreaded the arrival and celebration of Halloween She held a huge light bulb, symbolic of a crystal ball And I’m recalling Mom again assisting me it was the night Mom was rushed to the hospital He’s asking himself: “Who is this real doll?” With a homework assignment – another biography. and the out-of-doors never again to be seen. She kept her hands covered and across her face was a veil All I remember of it now during this moment of gladness Still asking himself “Who is this weirdo” – Steve could not tell. “In the heart of a clown is a touch of sadness.” It’s the night to which children look forward to costuming and trick-or-treat He went on to say “she uttered not a single word” But I’d been thinking of it as the night the “rug was pulled from under our He continued asking himself “Who is this strange bird?” Lord, as she asked of you for me as a teenager so very long ago feet.” Now Steve, as you know, is a pretty sharp feller Please take good care her, she is such precious cargo, This Halloween, October 31, 1978, will mark one year to the day But couldn’t discern who this was, this gypsy fortune teller. And pardon me, Lord, for reminding you, of what you made so. And I now recall that it all happened this way. He said it took about twenty minutes of studying the ol’ gypsy Then she made a certain gesture and he knew it was Grandma B! I rushed from work to the market to buy our trick-or-treats And prepared something real fast for my family to eat. Sister Donna reminded me of the party held at the bowling alley. Then I made my nightly call to Mom before the doorbell started ringing It was the night that Mom dressed up like Phyllis Diller And as usual, her voice, in its mom-manner, was singing. The “most original” prize she won was that Halloween thriller. “Hi, Mom, how are you tonight; I was just worrying about your I can picture her hamming it up and talking in that Phyllis Diller twang Having to get up and down to answer the door.” Just a-laughin’ and a-jokin’ about her husband, Fang. POETRY MATTERS “Dad will be back soon, Doll, he’s just at the store.” “Okay, mom, just checking, but now I’ve got to go Who could forget Mom the year she dressed like a regular hill-billy I’ll call you tomorrow during lunch break as you know.” Again, she played the part, and I don’t mean willy-nilly. With lots of freckles, an Okie drawl, and of course a snaggle tooth Winter Spring All of the above had to have happened before the hour of seven; In clodhoppers like Lil’ Abner’s granny, looking like she defined uncouth. Later she was taken in an ambulance; I got the call about eleven. A script of trees before the hill While in the emergency room, I was told she asked: “Where is my Shay?” So as it all plays back and forth now in my heart and head Spells cold, with laden serifs; all the walls Well, Mom, you better believe your Shay was on her way. These are the memories I should cherish of Mom instead. Are battlemented still; But winter spring is winnowing the air Shawna was right, that little smarty, Mom would want us to have a costume Of chill, and crawls party; With boys dressed as cute hobos and girls as spooky witches Wet-sparkling on the gutters; And a few clowns jumping around just to keep us all in stitches. Everywhere Some to be dressed as cuties, and others as scaries Walls wince, and there’s the steal of waters. Little devils and skeletons, and ballerinas and fairies. She’d want us to go trick-or-treating and do some apple bobbin’ Now all this proud royaume Instead of my thinking of hiding away sobbin’ and tear dobbin’! Is Veniced. Through the drift’s mined dome So, I allow my thoughts to replay the happy scenes One sees the rowdy rusted grass, Like when Mom dressed as Casper the ghost one long ago Halloween And we’re amazed as windows stricken bright. And succeeded in fooling Dad and we kids, as well as our neighbor, Jean. This too-soon spring will pass Perhaps tonight, Up through the years my thoughts take me away to the Whittier YMCA And doubtless it is dangerous to love When Mom was asked to be a judge that particular Halloween day This somersault of seasons; She couldn’t vote for her flappers but Tracy and I won anyway. But I am weary of I have a picture of her wearing a badge that simply states “Judge;” That’s another memory I’ll never allow to become just a smudge. The winter way of loving things for reasons.

Presently I heard a slight groan, and I knew it was the groan of mortal I then took up three planks from the flooring of the chamber, and by Edgar Allan Poe terror.

As the bell sounded the hour, there came a knocking at the bed. His fears had been ever since growing upon him. He had been trying street door. I went down to open it with a light heart, --for what had I now It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once to fancy them causeless, but could not. He had been saying to himself --”It conceived, it haunted me day and night. Object there was none. Passion to fear?

He had floor,” or “It is merely a cricket which has made a single chirp.” Yes, he had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye! yes, during the night; suspicion of foul play had been aroused; information had been trying to comfort himself with these suppositions: but he had found been lodged at the police office, and they (the officers) had been deputed it was this! He had the eye of a vulture --a pale blue eye, with a film over all in vain. it.

I showed them --with what caution --with what foresight --with what dissimulation I went When I had waited a long time, very patiently, without hearing him lie his treasures, secure, undisturbed. In the enthusiasm of my confidence, to work! I was never kinder to the old man than during the whole week down, I resolved to open a little --a very, very little crevice in the lantern. So I brought chairs into the room, and desired them here to rest from their before I killed him. And every night, about midnight, I turned the latch of his I opened it --you cannot imagine how stealthily, stealthily --until, at length fatigues, while I myself, in the wild audacity of my perfect triumph, placed door and opened it --oh so gently! And then, when I had made an opening a simple dim ray, like the thread of the spider, shot from out the crevice and my own seat upon the very spot beneath which reposed the corpse of the sufficient for my head, I put in a dark lantern, all closed, closed, thatno fell full upon the vulture eye. victim. light shone out, and then I thrust in my head.

I moved it slowly --very, very slowly, so I saw it with perfect distinctness --all a dull blue, with a hideous veil over it singularly at ease. They sat, and while I answered cheerily, they chatted of that I might not disturb the old man’s sleep. It took me an hour to place my that chilled the very marrow in my bones; but I could see nothing else of the familiar things. But, ere long, I felt myself getting pale and wished them whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon old man’s face or person: for I had directed the ray as if by instinct, precisely gone. My head ached, and I fancied a ringing in my ears: but still they sat his bed. Ha! would a madman have been so wise as this, And then, when my upon the damned spot. and still chatted. The ringing became more distinct: --It continued and head was well in the room, I undid the lantern cautiously-oh, so cautiously And have I not told you that what you mistake for madness is but over- became more distinct: I talked more freely to get rid of the feeling: but it --cautiously (for the hinges creaked) --I undid it just so much that a single acuteness of the sense? --now, I say, there came to my ears a low, dull, quick continued and gained definiteness --until, at length, I found that the noise thin ray fell upon the vulture eye. And this I did for seven long nights --every sound, such as a watch makes when enveloped in cotton. I knew that sound was not within my ears. night just at midnight --but I found the eye always closed; and so it was well, too. It was the beating of the old man’s heart. It increased my fury, as No doubt I now grew very pale; --but I talked more fluently, and with impossible to do the work; for it was not the old man who vexed me, but the beating of a drum stimulates the soldier into courage. a heightened voice. Yet the sound increased --and what could I do? It his Evil Eye. But even yet I refrained and kept still. I scarcely breathed. I held the was a low, dull, quick sound --much such a sound as a watch makes when And every morning, when the day broke, I went boldly into the chamber, lantern motionless.

I swung the chair upon which I had been sitting, before that night had I felt the extent of my own powers --of my sagacity. I refrained and stood still. But the beating grew louder, louder! I thought and grated it upon the boards, but the noise arose over all and continually I could scarcely contain my feelings of triumph. To think that there I was, the heart must burst. And now a new anxiety seized me --the sound would increased. It grew louder --louder --louder!
