ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends
and
MERRY CHRISTMAS

Judy and I are anxiously waiting for that
day to come.  We always start planning for
it at the beginning of each year.  We love
Christmas.  It’s the time of year that there
is more peace and love in the air than there
is any other time of the year.  I wish that
it was Christmas always or at least people
would act as they do for Christmas.  There
are so many people that need someone to
be with as friendship and to love.  I am so
grateful that I have Judy in my life and my
mom, sister, daughter and granddaughter
even if they are over 2000 miles away.  Love
knows no distance.  I’m also grateful for
our little boys/dogs that bless us every day
with their little smiles and the love that
emits from them as a rainbow of life.  Yep,
we totally feel blessed.  We have struggles,
but we have each other to lean on and to
gather strength from.  We also have God
always watching out for us making sure
that we have what we need.  We might not
have much,  but we have what we need and
that’s a blessing.  Most of the snow had all
melted,  but it snowed today and we have
a white yard again 🙂  So Unless it melts,
which I don’t see it happening with our
cold temperatures,  it looks like we’ll have
a white Christmas.  Judy and I have our
Christmas trees and decorations up all
year 🙂  Of course we are busy looking
for affordable Christmas presents at the
first of each year to get our kids and the
grand kids.  We don’t buy much,  but we
do try to get them each something and it
makes it not so hard if we don’t wait till
the season is upon us LOL.  That’s pretty
much how I deal with heating oil.  I try
to put 1 or 2 hundred dollars on our tab
at our oil delivery place so that when we
need oil,  all I have to do is call and have
it delivered.  Though there are quite a few
things that sneak up on me such as car
needs,  tires and anything that happens to
come up needing to be repaired on it so
we still have a car.  I hope the new year
is a lot better than this year has been.  It
has been a rough one on so many.  I pray
that this new year is full of hope and tons
of blessings.  Judy is in the kitchen making
cookies to take with us when we go up to
Caribou to see the family for Christmas
or more to the point Christmas Eve LOL.
I said to Judy,  you’re baking some more
cookies.  I had already baked 2 batches
of chocolate chip cookies for her and I 🙂
LOL she said she’s making these to take
with us Christmas Eve.  Yes,  I cook and
Judy will tell you I cook rather well 🙂  I
made us some pancakes and sausages for
breakfast today.  We combine our efforts
and don’t just rely on one or the other.
Of course if it came down to it which it
has a few times,  I would do for her as
she does for me.  Our little home isn’t
much,  but it’s a roof over our head and
place to sleep.  There are many out there
that need just that and my prayers go out
to them in hopes that they will find some
help somewhere,  from someone that’s able
to help them.  I have lived homeless and
it’s not fun.  Cleaning parking lots in hope
of getting a sandwich.  So let us pray and
do what we are able to do to help those
in need.  God has been good to us as we
have all that we need.  Many will look at
us and think,  we have not much,  but I
have seen both sides of the street and it
is a changing heart when you find that
you have nothing and then one day a
miracle happens and you have a place
to live.  I thank God for all that He has
done for Judy and I and all that He will
do.   Thank You God for answering my
prayers.  AMEN.  Now I believe it’s time
for me to be reading back over all that
I’ve written here to try and find a good
word or phrase that I can use for the
title for today’s new poem.  So it’s away
I go to that place of my recollection that
I always like to call RECOLLECT VILLE.
I believe I may have found a decent title
just a few lines back.  Now to check and
see if it’s been used.  Nope,  is hasn’t been
used,  so used it shall be.  Here goes…

Many Will Look

Time is a factor
when so many see you
they remember times,
a much different view.
Many will look on
and see what they will
as times have changed
to a new windowsill.
Life is a but journey
that many stumble on
walking down roads
of right and of wrong.
There are many others
that do not understand
the struggles of time,
how life can disband.
Leaving only dreams
in a tin can of time
while only emptiness
fills up your mind.
So many will look
and judge from afar
not knowing truly
how that things are.
So take the time today
to find what’s mistook
as the glimmers of time
that many will look.

There ya go my friends.  I hope you liked
the poem and maybe even my rambling 🙂
Yes I know it’s not a Christmas poem,  but
it’s what I felt compelled to write.  I can’t
think of anything else to tell you, so I guess
it’s time to tell you what I tell you almost
every week and that is,  I wrote some more
poems and haiku.  Yep,  10 more poems
and 5 of them are Christmas poems,  so ya
see LOL,  you did get a Christmas poem
to read hehehe.   Anyways,  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.  So now I do
believe it’s time for me to begin my search
for that hardly elusive off switch,  but not
before I wish you a very merry Christmas.
I hope and pray that your holiday is filled
with love and peace and your week is not
with too many struggles.  Remember Jesus
loves you and we do too.  Ok,  now to find
that ornery off switch that is terrible at
hiding LOL.  Where Oh where can it be
hiding,  where oh where can it be?  LOL.
Hmm,  I think my eyes caught movement
to the left of me where my cameras are 🙂
Yep,  I moved them the other day to use
my printer because Judy’s printer was
out of ink and so I used mine to print the
documents she needed and then I put all
of the cameras back,  but it seems I didn’t
put them exactly where they were and
that old lame brained off switch thought
it could hide behind my video camera 🙂
Gotcha,  see ya,  CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

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

Thinking of Times

Searching for thoughts
seeking for a clue
of a time and place
you’re wishing to view.
It brings alive stories
as pages of styles
thinking of times
as moments of miles.
Look for the instances
look for the scenes
timeless perceptions
of so many things.
We’ve many memories
that live and breathe
not unlike autumn
what all we perceive.
Searching for moments
seeking for a way
to bring alive things
of a so distant day.
Memories at a glance
of the simpler views
scenes we remember
choices to choose.
It starts with thoughts
of wondrous designs
a road to decisions
thinking of times.

Cuisine of Winter

Yarns of a story
can create views
scenes of things
that times infuse.
Just like a cuisine
it’s a tasty treat
 times envisioned
that many repeat.
Unfolding scenes
someone conceived
a cuisine of winter
might be believed.
It might be a form
as just a thought
a minute’s time
that might be not.
Many conclusions
might just become
the sound of words
as a beating drum.
Rhythmic emotions
of a time and place
become a cuisine
of a smiling face.
Seen as emotions
so timelessly true
so many memories
might live in you.
Some as shadows
a Christmas style
a cuisine of winter
minutes compile.
Poured out as life
flowing like wine
some becomes as
life in the mind.
Then it is found
front and center
a season of joy
cuisine of winter.

Changing Times

Wheels in motion
might just roll on
a new perception
a brand new dawn.
Leaving so many
to just walk away
looking at now as
just another day.
As changing times
are found  begun
so many will walk,
so many will run.
Leaving the others
driving to town
maybe seen slowly
wheels roll around.
Beginning to end
changing displays
becomes an essence
found out of phase.
Yet as we strive on
the wheels roll true
then to become as
so clearly in view.
Yet as emotions
of so many minds
some cannot handle
the changing times.

Evening Glimmered

Within my memories
the times move on
creating shadows
from dusk to dawn.
Now’s only pictures
that we took one day
as evening glimmered
in a magical way.
It brought about life
of a dreamers mind
right beside the sea
such a glorious time.
I sought the aroma
of a seascape style
as evening glimmered
and gave me a smile.
I saw the reflections
that moments fulfill
my expectations
on life’s windowsill.
Moments came alive
in scenes so true
as evening glimmered
of a wondrous view.
I found some sights
my eyes could see
timeless adventures
an ocean’s memory.
They are as structures
seasons moved on
as evening glimmered
its magical song.

Smiling at Life

The ticktock of time
displays many things
as times that compiled
into so many scenes.
Yet many people
will only look down
showing only sadness
displayed by a frown.
Some see wintertime
as only pure pain
while there are others
with smiles to attain.
Smiling at blessings,
smiling at the snow,
smiling at the scenes
that time does bestow
Don’t let the sadness
to envelop your mind,
find you a smile now
at Christmastime.
Go play in the snow
and make a snowman
or toss some snowballs
this moment so grand.
Let the Lord’s Spirit
to wash over you
as you smile greatly
at this wonderful view.
Sing Christmas songs,
let your heart to shine
while smiling at life
this time so divine.

Scenes of Delight

Cold snowy sights
of a wintery way
become as a dream
of a Christmas day.
Scenes full of joy
form in the mind
creating adventures
in a moment’s time.
The scenes live on
as a minds mirage
seeming as a dream
an artistic collage.
Life is woven in
like a spiders style
yet it’s a blessing
to give us a smile.
With just a glance
a time can become
as a magical sight
reflecting God’s Son.
As just a moment
that seconds inlay
now can be seen
as a wonderful day.
Minutes recorded
as hours create
times we remember
and do so elate.
Seasons of memoirs
seasons of white
become as blessings
scenes of delight.

Driven Through

Roads through Christmas
come with a gaze
moments with scenery
with wintertime’s phase.
When it’s driven through
it becomes a scene
a place and a time
of a winter cuisine.
People will often pass it
not seeing a sign
of all of the beauty
within Christmastime.
Roads through wintertime
create many views
that when driven through
show wondrous hues.
Scenes that will sparkle
within the sunlight
or show that of crystals
a Christmastime sight.
Life might be road like
as time guides the way
when it’s driven through
on a Christmassy day.
Open up your mind now
and find that great view
that becomes artwork
when it’s driven through.

Snow Filled Yard

Living as snowflakes
wintertime flows
while giving artwork
then as it snows.
Becoming as a heart
beating so divine
a snow filled yard
shows Christmastime.
It comes as blessings
as flakes fall down
becoming as a yard
with snow all around.
Some see it as misery,
but I call this view
a magical wonderland
so fresh and true.
It creates the essence
Creating the essence
of a beating heart
a Christmastime view
in a snow filled yard.

Life’s Imagination

Our eyes perception
might only perceive
echoes of a moment
we found to believe.
Yet as a doorway
to a point and time
life’s imagination
can create a rhyme.
Created as emotions
created from a seed
life’s imagination
gives us all we need.
Blessings from life
as a heavenly sight
time can become as
the things we delight.
Moments beginnings
are seamlessly strewn
displaying patterns
together and alone.
Some scenes may be
as a grassy plains
and others may be
as some distant rains.
You might see sights
of some distant hills
rolling as a moment
that timeless fulfills.
There might be trees
of different shades
life’s imagination
that gently cascades.
Look for the beauty
that might be there
but may be hidden
in who knows where.
It might be a time
needing visualization
as a magical place
in life’s imagination.

Flavors and Colors

Designed by moments
that life has unwound
it all begins journeys
so timeless abound.
Textured with colors
that seem so alive
time begins showing
how it will survive.
Flavors of a moment
are that of a phase
maybe of some colors
for our eyes to gaze.
Some may look away
and not choose to see
the beauty God gave
to both you and me.
Every minute passing
our eyes look upon
can become shadows
that are then and gone.
Life then becomes as
just a passing sight
a time you remember
of daylight and night.
Don’t lose the colors
of a sky that displays
for it’s also flavors
of a moment’s arrays.
Scented of blessings
unlike any others
enjoy the moments of
flavors and colors.

Haiku
for Dec 21,  2019

Tomorrows lifestyles
might mirror our yesterdays
if we do not change.

Time is just a thing
that many will often count
even when it’s over.

Thriving as heartbeats
within a human body
life begins journeys.

Beyond what you see
there might be many doorways
awaiting for you.

Fishing for true love
you might hook some misery
you thought was so good.

Counting your blessings
can open new views of life
that give you a smile.

The past is the past
even if you live as the same,
for then it’s just now.

Limbs on winter trees
often hold billows of snow
creating artwork .

Scenes of existence
are as echoes of moments
that have passed us by.

Searching for the truth
might uncover many lies
that you thought were true.

Streams of emotion
are as rivers of lifetimes
pouring like water.

An ocean of time
begins a wondrous journey
beneath many waves.

Seeking for answers
you might discover questions
you thought not to ask.

Tampering with life
might uncover many things
that weren’t meant to be.

The strength of a heart
is not just how is pumps blood,
but how that it loves.

Tempting a tempter
can become your reflection
of all that you are.

Changing for someone
will only create a lie
that is soon exposed.

Tampering with peace
can create war within it
as gas to fire.

God needs no applaud ,
but for you to trust in Him
with all that you do.

The windows of changes
often look much different
as we look outside.

Looking within lives
we might discover ourselves
as a reflection.

Autumn to winter
brings cascading perceptions
such as leaves to snow.
