ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

How have you been? Judy and I have been
doing fairly well. We had a nice day Friday
on our 14 year wedding anniversary. All we
did was went to Burger King and bought us
some burgers LOL. We’re having to sort of
conserve on money being I’m going to have
to put 400 dollars on heating oil. I’ve gotta
start now putting money on our oil so that
we will have enough heating oil to last us for
a while. Winter is knocking loudly on our
front door hehehe. This morning it was a
tad cold at 30 F degrees. I think we have
seen the last of warm weather this year 🙂
We might still have a day or so that slips
into the 70’s, but it’s not in the forecasts.
***
5-Day Forecast for New Limerick, Maine

Today: Partly Cloudy, High: 60 F, Low: 35 F

Mon: Partly Cloudy, High: 63 F, Low: 38 F

Tues: Sunny, High: 64 F, Low: 40 F

Wed: Mostly Sunny, High: 64 F, Low: 37 F

Thurs.: Sunny, High: 54 F, Low: 34 F

So that’s about all we will see for the next few
days until it starts getting colder which will most
assuredly happen as the weeks move along LOL.
Yep, even the leaves on the trees have begun
to change, but they still have a few days before
reaching their peak in changing. Judy and I are
preparing for our yearly drive to see if we can
find some nice colors to take pictures of. I hope
we find some great ones. Anyways, that’s our
future plans. Last Sunday night we managed
to get some good pictures of the super moon
and the eclipse/blood moon. The pictures are
not the greatest, but they are pretty good :).
We’ve posted a few on Facebook. I’ll put a
few in my stationery. We took the boys out
for another field trip early last week and they
have grown to love to do that. They’ve been
doing a lot of wrestling around in here. They
will roll around in the floor and play for hours.
If we open the door to let them out to run in
the house they’ll play chase back and forth
until they both drop in their tracks hehehe.
Yep, they act just like brothers. You might
look and think they are fighting, but they
are only playing. They’ll stop from time to
time to catch their breath and get a drink
of water and then they’ll be at it again LOL.
If Benny is resting and Rocky still wants to
play, Rocky will commence talking to him
in his little voice as we call it that sounds
sort of like Betty Davis LOL. Rocky is
slowly but surely grasping the concept of
going potty outside as he has begun his
own way of saying he’s gotta go potty
by either going to the door and staring
at it and then looking back at us or at
times when we are still asleep jumping
up and licking Judy on the face to tell
her hehehe being she’s on that side of
the bed LOL. I guess if he can’t get her
to wake up he’ll end up on my side of
the bed 🙂 He has also begun barking
at the front door when he is done and
ready to come in, almost the same way
Milo used to do 🙂 I wonder how he’s
gonna like snow? Hmm, Milo didn’t
care for it too much, but at times he
would go exploring in it. We shall see.
We got a bit of rain beginning late in
the night Monday which prevented us
from taking the boys out for another
field trip that week, but we’ll take
them out a few days this week as we
have planned. There’s no rain in the
forecast. The boys were doing their
wrestling a little while ago, but now
they are resting. I’m sure that they’ll
resume again with the wrestling match
later hehehe. Rocky will often just let
Benny win, but we both know that
Rocky can kick his butt if he wants
to LOL. We love to watch them play.
It makes our hearts sing. This house
would seem empty without the sound
of little paws running and playing 🙂
Judy’s daughter Helena finally got
a new car. Ok it’s not totally new,
but it’s newer than ours. Her old car
was falling apart. The doors were
barely hanging on and the windshield
wipers fell off and she put them in
the trunk, so yes, she needed a new
car. She bought a 2010 Mazda 6 🙂
I’m sure it will keep her on the road
for many years. I bought my Mazda
Protege in 1995 and it lasted us till
last year when we took a trip down
south to Texas in it and then it lost
a cylinder in Massachusetts and had
to drive the rest of the way to Texas
on 3 cylinders LOL. Through the
Appalachian Mountains yet hehehe.
We made it in one piece, old red
not so much LOL. Anyways, my
mom gave us her 2009 Nissan Rogue
and bought her a new one after her
saying there’s no way yall are going
to drive that Mazda back to Maine.
I miss my little red Mazda. It was
a part of my life for 19 years, but
it had done all that it could do and
it was time to let it go. We love
the Nissan. We started calling it
the Phantom, being phantom white
is the color of it 🙂 The boys love
to go for rides in it just as Benny
and Milo loved to go for rides in
old red. I stopped writing just a bit
ago and drove down to Cameron’s
Market which is just a little ways
down the road from us and yes I
took the boys. Judy and I wanted
some chips to eat. I almost shut the
door on Rocky not knowing that
he was headed out the door with
me hehehe. So I stuck my head
inside and said, who wants to go
with me, and Benny hopped off of
the recliner and joined Rocky as
they ran down the steps to the car.
I opened the back door and they
hopped right in. Gotta love them
boys 🙂 Anyways, during the rains
of last week we put the boys rain
gear on to help to keep then sort
of dry when they went out to go
potty hehehe. Their heads and
tails still got drenched LOL. Oh
well, we did our best. When they
came inside I towel dried them
which concurred to a little tug of
war between me and them. Both
of them tugging, but it seemed
they were having not only a tug
of war with me, but they were
having a tug of war with each
other LOL. That went on for a
while and Judy took pictures of it.
The towel was in a v formation as
I had the middle and they had a
hold of two corners LOL. God
has most surely blessed our home
as we have found another boy for
Benny that has turned out to be
a blessing. Thank You Lord for
all that you have done and shall
do in our lives. We might ever so
often take things for granted, but
we always remember Your Name
and how You have brought us all
together. If you have not allowed
God into your life yet, why not do
it today. You will still have many
struggles, but you will have God
to give you strength to make it
as He sends blessings your way.
Now I believe it’s time for me to be
taking my little trip back through
all that I have written here to see
if I can find a good word or phrase
that I can use for the title of today’s
brand new poem. So, it’s away I
go to that place of my recollection
that I seem to always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE. I think I
found a good title just a little ways
back. Now let’s see what I can do
with it hehehe. Here goes………

Little Paws

Tiny footprints
in the sand
run around
like hand in hand.
Little paws
without a grasp,
still grab hold
to do the task.
Both are brothers
different breeds
joined together
with their needs.
Loving brothers
their hurrahs
bounce around with
little paws.
Often playing
grasses green
then they might be
sights unseen.
In the bedroom
on our bed
bouncing around
the pillow head.
Pillows flying
to the floor
little paws then
play some more.

Hehehe there ya go. That’s all I could
think of using that title hehehe. So, it
might not be one of my better poems. It
was what that got written. I hope you
enjoyed my rambling. If not, Oh well,
maybe next week! My friend Brian still
needs your prayers. He and his family
are going through some rough times
as he bouts with cancer in his brain
and elsewhere. I have lost so many
friends to that nasty disease. But, I
do know that there is a place waiting
for us each one when our time is up
within these fleshly bodies and that
is Heaven or Hell as the case might
be. It’s all up to us and our choices,
so choose wisely my friends. Hell is
an unending place of torment that
provides no peace. I happily await
my time for Heaven bound being
I know that I will see all those that
have gone on before me and those
that will be joining when their time
comes. My wife and our little boys
will be together again joined with
many others. LOL, OK Bill cease
the preaching. Better yet, stop now
before I get locked into rambles ville
once again. So, I guess it’s time for
me to be telling you what I tell you
almost every week and that is, I
wrote some more poems and haiku.
Yep, 10 more poems with one of em
being sort of Christmassy and one
being to Judy. I also wrote 22 more
haiku for all of the haiku lovers out
there. I hope you can find 1 or 2 of
either or both that you like. Now I
believe it’s time for me to begin my
search for that not so elusive off
switch, but not before I wish you all
a most joyous weekend or whatever
is left of it and a blessings filled week.
Remember, Jesus loves you and we
do too. Ok, now where are you ya
little varmint? Last week and all the
previous weeks you’ve not seemed
to even try to hide. Hmm, looking
and searching as serious as a one
eyed dude can search hehehehehe.
Aha, I see ya. You did a little bit
better than normal, but still, it’s
not that great. Hiding behind my
glasses case would of worked if you
could possibly try and fight the urge
to poke your switch up to peek at
me LOL. You are so freaken silly 🙂
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill, Judy, Benny, Rocky
and the spirit of Milo Pearce

Now it’s on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehehe 🙂

Belief In True Love

Two hearts in an ocean
of true loves desire
found a sea vessel
with time to aspire.
The depth of the heartbeats
was found on display
as belief in true love
guided their way.
Two then in the waves
were sailing through time
hearts found concurring
in a wondrous design.
Belief in true love
was ripples in space
two found together
found face to face.
Two hearts in an ocean
found life the same
belief in true love
with the same name.
Joined with God’s blessings
the two became one
belief in true love
through Jesus God’s Son.
Then as their passageways
then gathered speed
belief in true love
gave all that they need.

Shadows Of Joy

Seasonal moments
of so long ago
are now as shadows
with that Christmas glow.
Me as a young boy
with seasonal sun
singing of Christmas
and Jesus God’s Son.
Some songs of Santa
are sung day and night
joyful so joyful
a Christmas delight.
Wishing for such things
as white Christmas snow
and to hear sounds of Santa
with his HoHoHo
Dreaming of blessings
my favorite toy.
These are the things
that are shadows of joy.

Voyager

Searching through the stars
a lonely soul flies
a voyager, a dreamer
in so distant skies.
The voyager might be
just searching in dreams
bouncing through the stars
that look just like streams.
A river is flowing
inside of their mind.
The voyager is seeking
a new life to find.
Searching through the stars
in a sequential pattern
sometimes real close
to the large rings of Saturn.
The voyager of nighttime
dreams of the stars
sometimes of Venus
and sometimes of Mars.
Then when awoken
in the darkness of night
the voyager looks up
and sees the starlight.
The cosmos partaken
that dreams had brought clear
the voyager saw as
their future year.

A Moments Swan

Upon the ripples
of a wondrous pond
there just might be
a moments swan.
A picturesque scene
from dusk to dawn
the ripples display
a moments swan.
Pages are inlaid
as ripples so long
painted as Heaven
a moments swan.
The journey across
might be to spawn
within a season
a moments swan.
What’s seen and heard
is then soon gone
for it is done
a moments swan.

Restful Soul

Peace is found
when in forgiveness
done before
the time to rest.
A restful soul
of now and then
is found amidst
the less of sin.
Yet a sinful
life occurs
with each life
each day concurs.
A restful soul
finds through some prayer
love of life
without despair.
The seasons found
might take their toll,
but prayer can find
a restful soul.

A Candle In The Room

The lights might cease
with rain and wind blowing
and a candle in the room
show where you’re going.
A storm that’s displaying
scenes of such sights,
a candle in the room
provides us with lights.
For in the darkness
eyes have some trouble
finding a pathway
through all the rubble.
A candle in the room
prevents many scenes
like falling over stuff
and breaking many things.
The candle is the light
to display what’s true
like God and His Son
through things that you do.

A Rising Tide

The moon at night
brings forth a plan
a rising tide
to where we stand.
The moments gained
with certain sights
as the waves are
in the nights.
The moon above
gives oceans rise
seeming as a
different size.
A rising tide
can seem to be
much more there
for eyes to see.
Yet the moonlight
closer found
brings the tide
much more aground.

Reflecting Time

Some in sections
might just be
a minute ticking
that we see.
Times reflections
might become
a sight to see,
a beating drum.
Reflecting time
in its own way
might be lessons
day to day.
Some are speed bumps
some are walls
times reflections
trips and falls.
Reflecting time
is better seen
stop on red
and go on green.
Learning patterns
which to find
found within
reflecting time.

Mist Of Dawn

When morning comes
and night moves on
there is the sight of
mist of dawn.
Dew drops dripping
from the plants
answers from their
nighttime chants.
The mist might seem
to be as rain,
but without
a clouds domain.
The mist of dawn
is great to see,
for it is
a gift for free.
A gift from God
to help display
a flowers bloom
April and May.

The Mood Of Now

Within a second
moods might change
to a moment
seemed so strange.
The mood of now
might not be then,
for the path
might just transcend.
When in a moment
we might mistaken
what that’s good
to be partaken.
The mood of now
can surely be
the guiding path
to what you see.
Use the lessons
then has shown
the mood of now
that were so blown.
The mood of now
can change its face
as time moves on,
a different place.

Haiku
for Oct 3, 2015

Tomorrow’s journey
begins with steps made today,
so start your walking.

Life in a story
can be discerned many ways,
but the truth exist.

Summertime’s doorway
soon finds itself with an end
as Autumn begins.

The displays of love
will get misinterpreted
by ones they don’t know.

Bonding two heartbeats
needs God to be the true glue
to hold them intact.

Living on the edge
could cause you your destruction,
because you might fall.

Making tracks in snow
often loses its details
due to snow falling.

Echoes of summer
often come as memories
held deep within us.

Often perception
is confused by a moment
and how it happened.

Losing your marbles
over things that are long gone
will not give you peace.

Change is a story
that’s written as life goes on,
pages begun blank.

Flavors of ice cream
are for our differences
the same as we are.

Beyond the starlight
holds an imagination
that might just be true.

Morning with sunlight
is a door to the future
beginning right then.

Various people
discern things in their minds eye
that are just made up.

Frolicking with life
can turn around and bite you
if you’re not careful.

Beneath starry skies
holds a place for dreams to thrive
as you fall asleep.

Not teaching the truth
can one day become problems
that you might regret.

In a field of dreams
there is a chance for changes
that can come alive.

Yearning for what’s wrong
and following that feeling
might cause destruction.

A small country road
might seem to lead to nowhere,
but that is somewhere.

Deciphering meanings
often ends with confusion,
for the words are wrong.
