ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

So, how’s it going? It’s going fairly well up this ways.
Judy is still waiting on either her unemployment benefits
to kick in or Social Security Disability. As of now we’re
living off of my social security. Kind of makes it hard to
pay all the bills, but we’ll survive. Judy and I are doing
a lot of praying. Anyways, we know there are many that
are much worse off than us, so we try not to let ourselves
to be caught up in despair, but it happens. We’re only
human. OK, so it’s off of our problems hehehe. Today
the weather is supposed to be rather nice. Sunny with
a high of 79F degrees. Right now at 10:00 AM it’s 70F.
It’s not supposed to rain today YEA. Yet tonight the rain
is supposed to start again at around midnight and on into
Wednesday. I wish I could send some of this weather
down south to my family and friends that need it. Hehehe
soon enough as winter sets in, we will be wanting them
to send us some of their weather LOL. Yeppers, there
ain’t no place on Earth that’s perfect. There’s a pitfall
in every location. Ok so onto another topic hehehehehe.
Judy’s still in there sleeping. She went and visited her
family last night until around 11:00 PM. I had to stay
home, being my intestines have been acting up. Food
doesn’t agree with me anymore hehehe. Oh well, I’ll
survive until I die :). That’s life, but Heaven is waiting
and then I’ll have a new body without any afflictions.
Until then, I’ll just try and look for the good things in
life. Sometimes they’re hard to see, but they’re there.
So, what else is happening up this ways? Not much
other than the same old same old everyday turnstiles
of life. Nothing changed except the fact that Judy is
home most of the time and it screws up my ability to
tell what day it is LOL. Used to, her days off were
Wednesdays and Thursdays and I could tell what day
it was, but now every day is pretty much the same 🙂
LOL both of us were sat here wondering what day it
was yesterday. I’m sure we’ll find a way to tell hehe.
I did take advantage of the time that Judy was away
yesterday and I wrote my poems and haiku. I’m not
used to her being here when I’m writing them hehehe,
but I have many times written them with her sitting
right behind me at her PC. I thank God for the many
chances and choices my life has given me. I have made
a few bad choices I know and a few things in my life
have gone awry, but all in all, God has been good to
me. I’ve had many health issues and struggles, but I
have learned through them and in many cases become
stronger. Life is in fact a bed of roses hehehe. To see
the beauty, you’ve gotta deal with a few thorns. Look
passed the problems and see the goodness that is there.
Don’t let problems to be your every focus. Look and
see the answers through God. Now that I have gone
and rambled once again, I believe it’s time for me to
be taking my little venture back through all that I’ve
written here and see if I can find 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 place of my recollection that
I like to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I think I may have
found a good title. Now let’s see what I can write using
it hehehe. Here goes…..

I Believe

I believe in now and then
as time moves to and fro.
I believe that Heaven’s Gates
are where that I will go.
I believe in loving angels
that which walk with me.
I believe in timeless love
through God’s eternity.
I believe in pages turned
to better days ahead.
I believe in miracles
that fill the days of dread.
I believe in yesterdays
that gave to me a smile.
I believe in future days
with Heaven to compile.
I believe in hopeful dreams
that maybe will come true.
I believe in God above
that loves both me and you.

I hope you enjoyed my rambling and the poem. I can
always tell when God is doing the typing hehehehehehe.
Ok so to keep me from beginning rambling mode again
I think I need to be telling ya what I tell ya every week
and that is, I wrote some more poems and haiku. Yes,
I know, I told ya that in my rambling section hehehehe,
but I didn’t tell ya how many. Yeppers, I wrote 10 more
poems, but I accidentally wrote 23 haiku instead of my
regular 22 hehehe. So sue me :)!! Well I guess it’s time
once again for me to be searching for that old off switch,
but not before I wish you a most wonderful God filled
week. Remember, Jesus loves you and we do too…..
Now to find that off switch. Found it snuggled to Judy
in bed. Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

P.S. After double checking hehehehehe
I found that I already had written a poem
titled “I Believe” in 2005. Oh well hehehe!
Here’s yet another hehehehehe Hey when
you’ve written over 6000 poems, it’s hard
not to have a repeat title or two LOL!

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22+1 hehehehehehehehehe 🙂

Highs and Lows

Scenes are changing
day by day
in a moments
wondrous way.
Times are found
through history
scenes all changed
a slight degree.
Minutes passion
might be found
as a scene
next time around.
Times repeated
might be seen
as that of
a magic dream.
Scenes are changing
in a way
as they make
their own display.
Seconds counted
are exposed
day by day
with highs and lows.

Painted Moments

Painted oceans
in the sky
seem to beckon
where and why.
With their journeys
oceans blue
the sky above
brings something new.
Painted displays
overhead
sometimes as
a riverbed.
Clouds are forming
here and there
painted oceans
everywhere.
Painted pictures
up above
from Lord God
and filled with love.
Painted moments
said and done
with each brand new
rising sun.

Just A Shadow

Shadows speaking
in the night
bring ones stories
filled with fright.
Sometimes shadows
that you see
are just glimmers
of a tree.
Often shadows
that ones see
are just blessings
given free.
Angels watching
over you
day to day
and through and through.
So if shadows
come to pass
with a scary
scene to cast,
just remember
they might be
just a shadow
of a tree.

Then The Thunder

Sounds of thunders
rock and roll
brings the echoes
that we know.
Lightning’s music
in the skies
that reverberate
in our eyes.
Then the thunder
follows suit
with its sounding
so acute.
Raindrops fall
if it’s desired
from the clouds
of which transpired.
Sounds of thunders
harmony
adds to lightning
that we see.
All the drum beats
in the sky
are as lightings
apple pie.

When and Where

When and where
can be as seen
sometimes as
a moments dream.
Then and there
can also be
sometimes as
our history.
Often judgment
from a time
can make lemons
from a lime.
When and where
might just be found
as a wanted
time around.
Then and there
might also find
us just wanting
peace of mind.
Often places
when and where
are just moments
not so fair
as then also
then and there
might then be
a lack of care.
So take heed now
and look true
when and where
the things you do.
Leave the moments
not yet found
as some hopeful
time around,

Now is Now

Now is now
and then is then
just like breezes
of the wind.
Now blows by
with yesterday
with its will
and with its way.
Now might find
a time and frame
seeming as a
moments game,
yet still lessons
do conclude
from those times
we misconstrued.
Now is now
and it will pass
sometimes leaving
shadows cast.
Use those shadows
that you see
to make better
you and me.

Now is Summer

Now is summer
as it’s said
here and now
right straight ahead.
Summers mornings
come and go
with the sunlight
all aglow.
Summers evenings
bring a twinkle
of the nightlights
stars to sprinkle.
Now is summer
over here
with its special
time of year.
Many swimming
in the sun
as they’re daily
having fun.
Soon though summer
will be gone
as the seasons
just roll on.

Greedy

Wanted windows
sometimes close
leaving journeys
sometimes froze.
Use those windows
as a guide
to find lessons
then applied.
Sometimes windows
thought to need
are just Satan’s
little seed.
So look closely
at the view
and see if you
need them true.
Maybe those old
windowpanes
are just greedy
wanted gains.

Find Some Forgiveness

One time a heartbeat
found lesser flame
while just forgetting
sometime and again.
One time a feeling
left out the door
while then the other
just wanted more.
This is the story
about many hearts
seeming to turn into
fragmented parts.
One time turns ugly
then yesterdays gone
and then the heartbeats
don’t see new dawn.
Find some forgiveness
to live in today
or then your heartbeat
might go away.

Love Goes Round

The sunlight’s shining
oh so bright
but soon’s coming
edge of night.
Night will bring then
stars to shine
in the skylights
own design.
Then as nighttime
grabs a hold
I’ll just dream of
times of old
and when morning
comes in sight
I’ll then see
the bright sunlight.
Pages turning
as they will
with the minutes
to fulfill.
The sunlight’s fading
now from view
and I’ll soon be
holding you.
You and I
in starlight’s gaze
holding hands
like yesterdays.
Soon the night skies
will be found
you and I
as love goes round.

To Judy Pearce
From Bill Pearce

I love you Judy 🙂

Haiku
for July 9, 2011

Portions of pictures
aren’t meant to be understood
just merely enjoyed.

A scenes portrayal
could be misconceived thinking
of what that is meant.

A flowers blossom
is more than just beginnings.
It’s also the journey.

Clinging to a rock
can surely be a good thing
if that rock is God.

Let not tomorrows
to fill your now and today’s,
for there is no room.

Yesterdays value
can be very disturbing
if it was drunken.

Today’s scenery
comes with blessings from Jesus
and much more to come.

Yearning for Heaven
can weigh you down immensely,
so smile at today.

Lessons can evolve
through many mistakes we make,
so don’t beat yourself.

A timeless moment
might prevent you from living.
Let life move ahead.

Jumbles emotions
come from disillusioned thoughts
sometimes out of sync.

Paving a lifestyle
needs a good grip on white lines
and where not to turn.

Florescent flowers
make each day so full of life
that troubles subside.

Closed minded people
leave no room for improvement.
Look outside the box.

Doing a favor
and then expecting a thanks
might lose the battle.

Repairing a heartbeat
needs a whole lot of patience
with a lot of love.

Time is a journey
that we travel every day
sometimes by seconds.

Inner most feelings
might be exposed outwardly
and you not know it.

Today is brand-new
giving us options to change
what yesterday was.

Letters you’ve written
might just come back to haunt you
so take care of words.

Now is a fraction.
Then is the compilation
of many fractions.

Open a doorway,
but cautiously inspect it
before walking through.

A person needs dreams
to fill the voids of despair.
Some dreams can come true.
