ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s been another cold week up here in
the winter wonderland.  We’ve gotten a
bit more snow and it seems that all of
the reflectors that I put on our mailbox
did not prevent it from being hit by the
snowplows.  I’ve gotta go out today and
see if I can fix it.  I just had a thought
and called our landlord and he said he’d
go and fix it.  So,  that should take care
of that,  HOPEFULLY 🙂  So what else
is going on around the Pearce’s Place?
Well my fingers are doing better and get
this LOL,  I went to the doctor and had
x rays done last Saturday and they did
not call me to tell me about them until
yesterday evening (Saturday) hahahaha.
She said,  there isn’t anything broken
and I said,  I kind of figured that out
as I can bend them now,  but my little
finger (pinky) is still sore and I cannot
bend it fully, but I am guessing that in
time that will get better.  She asked me
if the brace did any good and I said,
LOL you mean the wrist brace you put
on my arm?  I took that off the minute
I got out to the car,  because it wasn’t
even touching my fingers and my wrist
wasn’t hurt in the fall.  She said that’s
good.  LOL Even Judy when I got in
the car had a little giggle looking at
the brace with my fingers sticking out.
Anyways,  next topic.  It got down to
0 last night so we had to leave the hot
water dripping to keep the water from
freezing.  We only have to do that in
the bathroom because that’s where
 the hot water heater is.  No need to
let the water drip elsewhere.  I have
the cabinet under the faucets in the
spare room opened so that the heat
from the furnace can get to it and so
that prevents it from freezing.  I may
be an old Texan,  but I have learned
how to live up here and take care of
things.  Of course I function better
in the cold than I do in the heat LOL,
so this is where I’ve needed to be all
along hehehe.  Now if we could just
get the snowplows to cease and desist
plowing over our mailbox LOL.  It
looks as though that is not going to
happen though.  Oh well,  it’s not
like it’s the end of the world.  It’s a
bright and sunny day today,  but the
high for today is supposed to be 13 F
which is what it is at this very moment.
It’s supposed to be -12 F by tomorrow
morning,  so the water shall drip on.
The boys are in here with me.  Judy’s
still asleep.  We stay up late being we
are both night owls.  LOL when I say
we stay up late,  I mean until around
4 and 5 AM.  I used to work nights
and those hours have stuck with me.
Judy also used to work nights so we
both have gotten used to staying up
all night and going to bed around 4
or 5 AM or somewhere thereabouts.
We watch game shows and then we
watch our favorite cartoons until we
are ready to go to sleep.  Life is good.
We have our fair share of struggles
and all,  but for the most part,  we’re
happy and life is good.  God looks
after us protecting us and guiding us
as well as our many angels that are
with us always.  Thank You God for
all that You have done for us and
all that You will do.  Now I believe
it is time for me to begin my search
back through all that I’ve written here
to see if I can find me a good word or
phrase that I can use for the title for
today’s brand new poem.  So,  it’s
away I go to that little place of my
recollection that I always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE.  I think I may
have found a decent title just about
a third of way into my rambling and
now to see if I have used it before.
Nope it hasn’t been used yet,  but
used it shall be today 🙂 Here goes…

A Little Giggle

With just a laugh
a time or two
can change a phase
of sad and blue.
A little giggle
that ones release
can display
a moments peace.
Use some laughter
to find a place
as a reflection
a smiling face.
Don’t let sadness
to live and breathe
find a giggle
to believe.
For there’s many
that need a smile
a little giggle
a laughing while.
So find laughter
when you feel blue
and in might help
some others too.

There ya go.  LOL,  I was thinking of
a video that I saw on Facebook where
a guy was on a subway or something
and he was looking at his laptop PC
and just began laughing and then soon
everyone on the ride was laughing and
smiling.  Sometimes,  all a smile needs
is a spark.  So,  Judy just walked in.
Now the boys can pester her hehehehe.
I gave them their morning treat when
I came in here and they joined me,
but they were wanting a treat from
her as well 🙂  We’ve got 2 little pigs 🙂
The boys have dried dog food in a
pan on the floor,  so they’re OK 🙂
I think they just like the attention as
well as the treats LOL,  but I refuse
to give them a treat every time they
want one hahaha.  Well,  that’s about
all I have for ya other than what I tell
you every week and that is,  I wrote
some more poems and haiku.  Yep,
10 more poems,  no extras or of the
Christmas array.  I also once again
wrote 22 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 do believe it is time for me
begin searching for that hardly elusive
 off switch,  but not before I wish you
a most peaceful weekend or whatever’s
left of it and truly blessings filled week.
Remember,  Jesus loves you and we
do too.  Now,  where can that freaking
off switch be hiding this week?  Hmm,
searching high and low.There ya are
you little whippersnapper.  I see you
have found a new spot to hide,  but
not the greatest hahaha.  Hiding under
my caps that are sitting on the shelf
right beside me would of worked if you
hadn’t of started a landslide (capslide).
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

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

Home and Mind

Life has beginnings
some timeless true,
but some may seem
as an image of you.
Yet as a doorway
opens your mind
there are beginnings
found time to time.
For in our homes
the walls might show
pictures hanging
high and Low.
Home and mind
is a place to see
a heartbeat beating
through history.
For walls might show
the best design
found in essence of
home and mind.

Life Is A Flower

The most important
days we may see
might be a flower
within you and me.
A flower blooming
displaying so true
the essence of life
in me and in you.
Time gives chances
for our show and tell
as flowers blooming
in hopes to prevail.
Telling of springtime
in view of a day
blossoming flowers
in a magical way.
The links to moments
that many unite
flowers displaying
as daylight and night.
Different opinions
is what so many see
as ones may look
at you and at me.
Life is a flower
that blooms desire
scented as seconds
of heartbeats afire.
God gives chances
to surely fulfill
as life is a flower
with love to instill.

Still But Moving

Need of a motion
to take in control
time may seem still
as moments unfold.
Just like the waters
of a lake or stream
still but moving
yet often unseen.
Life is momentum
as waters will flow
to take us places
found to and fro.
Still but moving
as minds travel on
creating ventures
dusk unto dawn.
Doorways open
to let in a view
still but moving
to carry us through.
Allow for dreams
to give you a ride
lifetimes counted
you carry inside.
A pond or a lake
might be a mirror
reflecting yourself
seen a bit clearer.
Don’t let weakness
to hold you back,
be still but moving
as lifetimes unpack.

Peace Becoming

Trials of life
in a pond of views
can become times
we wish to refuse.
Not wanting to see
the ripples in life
essence of waters
moments of strife.
Flowing so freely
time is a place
many are choosing
to hide their face.
Yet as a window
time can be seen
as peace becoming
essence of dream.
Pouring as a life
flowing as a way
to the beginnings
of a brand new day.
Peace becoming
a moment in time
found as perspective
within your mind.
Allow the waters
of your memories
to then awaken
the distant seas.
Sounding as music
a guitar strumming
your life can be
as peace becoming.

When Heaven Calls

A wintertime’s day
with snow all around
Heaven’s displaying
its sight to be found.
White as its passion
some scenes come alive
whispering voices
for a time to arrive.
When Heaven calls me
my heart will be full
filled with the essence
of strength to refuel.
For as God’s creation
life billows a scene
when Heaven calls me
and I hear angels sing.
Time is but a moment
that brings about views
sometimes regretful
with choices we choose.
Look beyond sadness
and find thankfulness
for all of the blessings
of more or of less.
For even the smallest
of blessings in time
can become larger
in another design.
So don’t just focus
on all of the wrong
for when Heaven calls
it’ll be just a song.

Wonderland

Often our shadows
come alive in the snow
with winter’s stories
that grow and grow.
Scenic as glimmers
of lifetimes so grand
time becomes stories
of a snow wonderland.
Each scene is created
by snowflakes that fall
landing and compiling
to most surely enthrall.
Seeming so magical
as it lands to become
a wonderland scene
beneath winters sun.
Shadows of amazement
are as winter’s stage
designed for a moment
to last age to age.
Becoming as memoirs
of stories of time
while ones will listen
to create in their mind.
A wonderland voyage
through now and again
becomes as a place
to once again begin.
A time you remember
with snow in your hand
might just be a time
of a winter wonderland.

Memory Lane

Driving down tomorrow
on yesterday’s path
finds times today
life moving too fast.
Recalling a moment
with a past day’s sun
can create a doorway
to new days begun.
Driving down pathways
of scenic survival
might display the times
or yesterdays arrival.
Showing how beginnings
together might unite
with what that’s passed
to create another sight.
Allow your wheels to roll
down the road of style
syncing life’s tomorrows
with a hopeful smile.
Look beyond sadness
and find a view to see
maybe as a moment
within your memory.
A time now as shadows
that helps you through
as you roll onwards
in life thereunto.
Those days you remember
that moments did attain
bringing forth gladness
on down memory lane.

Colors Of Style

Scented of autumn
many will remember
the colors of October
along with November.
The colorful leaves
begin their parade
syncing with minutes
as moments inlayed.
Time is but a journey
that displays a view
sometimes rainbows
or the morning dew.
The colors of style
are a scented array
often with the aromas
of April and May.
We might only see
what moments allow
as the time passes by
leaving us in a cloud.
Often in the distance
there might be more
the colors of style
for us to explore.
Those scenes might be
of an ocean or lake
or maybe some trees
for eyes to partake.
Yet in the meantime
search for a while
timeless perception
of the colors of style.

Planted Seeds

Life’s a garden
high and low
planted daily
sure to grow.
Some are found
as only weeds
in our gardens
dirty deeds.
Yet some flowers
will then bloom
if we will then
give them room.
Future beauty
needs some care
planted seeds
of here to there
So take heed
with every day
and plant seeds
a fruitful way.
For as time goes
dirty deeds
are from careless
planted seeds.

Passing of Clouds

As a story is written
the words might tell
the times that we find
in the future so well.
The passing of clouds
and blue sky above
the future is hopeful
and filled full of love.
Times remembered
might seem so gray
as clouds passing by
from day unto day.
The seasons we see
as an ocean of style
may have conclusions
with time to compile.
So many moments
have hopeful within
if we’ll look inwards
with chance to begin.
A firm grasp on life
with a positive seed
can plant a blessing
for things to succeed.
Time can be tricky
as it can cast a spell
creating hopelessness
that our times foretell.
Yet with a little prayer
and passing of clouds
your life can elude
the delusional shrouds.

Haiku
for Jan 12,  2019

Amidst ones thinking
a thought might be eluding
due to too much stress.

Living on the edge
can become a dead end road
if you fall wrongly.

Yesterday’s follies
could become today’s lessons
if we don’t forget.

The stress of hardship
can be tools to help us grow
if we learn a path.

A snowflake falling
has no clue where it will land,
but that it will land.

Looking for heartbeats
where only emptiness lives
creates loneliness.

Summertime’s flowers
start their slumber in autumn
to sleep through winter.

The weather changes
as life’s personalities
changing their rhythm.

In search of springtime
some never see the beauty
that winter provides.

 Memories of life
are created as mirrors
reflecting within.

Sought after choices
that are not clearly thought out
could find disaster.

Playing hide and seek
can become monotonous
if no one seeks.

The flowers of change
are as beauty that blossoms
creating seasons.

Heaven holds much peace
while our journeys all unfold
with numbers counted.

Blindsided attacks
on the structures of our life
might make us stronger.

We are as the leaves
that fall from trees in autumn
for we each will pass.

Whirring of the wind
speaks volumes of perspective
that time will display.

Shadows of ourselves
are as glimmers reflections
showing where we’ve been.

Hazards of minutes
live within forgetfulness
as they’re repeated.

Morning brings sunshine
as nighttime brings many stars
that are of the same.

The need of many
is thought to outweigh the few,
but greed becomes need.

Living without sight
only hearing what ones say
can be hindering.
