Shell at my ear —

come share how I hear

busy old sea in whispers.

Moans rise from ancient depths

in ocean sighs

like crowds of ghost monsters.

Waves lash and fall & —

in roars and squalls

with all a mystery ahhh!

Seashell, by James Berry

Trick a Duppy -- James Berry

If you want to trick a duppy and want to walk on happy happy in a moonshine--bright moonshine-- hear how and how things work out fine.

You see a duppy. Don't whisper. Don't shout. Make not the least sound from your mouth. One after the other straight straight, strike three matchsticks alight. Drop one then another of the sticks ablaze. And before you walk a steady pace flash dead last match like you dropped it, when smart smart you slipped it in your pocket to have the duppy haunted in a spell and why so you cannot tell.

But duppy searches for that third matchstick to vanish only when 6 A.M. has ticked.
