ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

The days have all rolled by and my day of rambling
has returned once again hehehe. How have you been?
I hope the days have been good to you. Ok, at least
one or two of em hehehe. Well, the weather up this
ways is pretty much same as always. Rain, rain and
more rain with a couple of days of sunshine/clouds.
We did have three days last week with sunshine and
that was nice. It was getting to be that every week
was followed by flooding in some area of Maine due
to rivers overflowing. It’s a far cry from down south
in Texas and thereabouts. I sure wish we could send
some of this rain as well as temperatures down to
them. It’s supposed to rain again this evening and
the high for today is supposed to reach 79F degrees.
It’s 70F degrees right now at 10:30 in the morning.
Not too bad for the later days of August huh! Nope,
not too bad and I’m glad cause we ain’t got an air
conditioner. Just a few fans. I guess it’s time for
me to be moving along with this journal huh hehehe.
So what’s happening up this ways? Good question
and as soon as I find a good answer I’ll let you know.
LOL, we’re still doing our same old same old stuff
day to day, but a little difference was in this week.
Judy and I went over her older sisters house and
watched our granddaughter and her cousin playing
in the little swimming pool. Yep, I took pictures
of them splashing about. I thought about wading
in with them, but aside from the fact that I didn’t
have a bathing suit, the water was freaking cold
as all get out. Hehe you could see them shivering,
but having a blast. I might put one of those pictures
in the stationary, but don’t hold your breath hehe.
Though I just might put one or two LOL. It was
a beautiful day Thursday, but clouds were rolling
in as the day wore on hehehe and it rained later
that evening. That’s the way it goes. Although
the last few days have been rather nice with some
sunshine and clouds. I adore clouds. They are
the decor in the sky. Do you remember Bob Ross
the painter? He would almost always paint in a
few clouds and never be seen to not put in a few
happy little trees here and there hehehe. I used
to watch him every day he was on television. Too
bad that he passed away at such a young age, but
his work lives on. That’s the same as us. When
we die, our bodies are gone, but we will live on in
others, so make sure you leave a good memory.
Don’t spend your life hurting and deserting ones in
your everyday life. It could come back to haunt
you. Let God shine in your life with everything you
do or at least as best that you can. I know we all
from time to time lose our patience and tempers,
but learn the act of forgiveness and letting go of
the anger and sadness. Look for the joy in each
day that comes to be. Share a smile and kind word
with others even if you may not feel like it. It just
might turn into the real thing before you know it 🙂
Now I believe it’s time for me to be heading down
memory lane 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 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 stumbled upon a good title. Now let’s
see what, if anything at all, I can do with it.
Here goes……

Hurting and Deserting

Tomorrows journey
might fill us with pain
from all the moments
we did time again.
Hurting and deserting ones
each day to day
might turn reflections
into your display.
You might find sorrow
of your own accord
if you seek selfish
and not of The Lord.
Hurting and deserting
leaves ones memories
of what you’ve done
with the falling of leaves.
Time brings a journal
of what you have done,
so let God Guide you
through His Only Son.
Tomorrows journey
can be better seen
if you’ll let Jesus
to show grasses green.

I hope you enjoyed my rambling and maybe even
the poem LOL. Hopefully I didn’t put ya to sleep.
But then if you were needing rest I hope it did give
you some relaxation and hehehehehe a little sleep.
My neighbor is mowing outside my window right
now and it makes it a little hard to concentrate,
but I’ll make it. HEY, his mower stopped hehehe.
So quick while it’s quiet with the only sounds in
my hearing range being mellow music from the
radio hehehe, I’ll try and finish this. So I guess
it’s time for me to be telling you what I tell you
every week and yes this week I wrote some more
poems. 10 more to be exact, but I wrote one
poem the other week that I didn’t share being
I reposted some of my old poems from years
back. So this time you’ll have 11 poems with
one dated Aug 8, 2011 and the others I wrote
half on Tuesday and the others on Saturday 🙂
I wrote 22 more haiku Saturday as well. So my
dear friends, you have a lot to read and I hope
and pray some of it brings you a smile or helps
you with a problem you may be having. OK,
so I reckon it’s about time for me to begin my
search for that freaking off switch, but not
before I wish you a most joyful and God filled
week. Remember, Jesus loves you and we
do too. Now to find that silly off switch so
I can cease this incessant writing hehehehehe.
Found it this time hiding by my camera acting
as a picture. OK, so smile you silly thing 🙂
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

P.S. Oh yea, one of the poems is to Judy and
another is a Christmas poem. LOL, see if you
can tell which one’s which hehe. Also this time 🙂
I remembered to put the haiku in so I don’t have
to resend this thing like last week LOL… Enjoy

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

Today’s A Day

Today’s a day
that came with tools
from the times
we were as fools.
Now can blossom
lessons galore
if we’ll focus
on what can be more.
Leave the days
of misery
as a lesson
from history.
Look past troubles
of then and there
and take time
to kneel in prayer.
Today’s a day
that now can show
greater things
for you to know.

Sometimes Clouds

Clouds of gray
from skies of blue
show some features
in our view.
Sights are seen
from here below
as some clouds
as white as snow.
Sometimes clouds
will form designs
as a house
or farm combines.
When the rains
fall from their space
they are that
of God’s Own Grace.
Clouds of gray
will come and go
while they sometimes
fade and grow.

True Love Beating

A heart from then
finds now and there
with a frame
of know not where.
Time begins
its journey through
here and there
with me and you.
Simple moments
seen and heard
might now seem
a bit absurd.
A heart from then
finds moments cued
what that’s often
misconstrued.
Minutes passing
brings to play
moments fears
from day to day.
True love beating
will hold true
if it lives
in me and you.

From Bill Pearce
I love you Judy

Do The Best
That You Can Do

Onwards time
might seem to pass
seeming as it’s
way too fast.
Seconds minutes
seem as days
as they seem now
out of phase.
Nows tomorrow
might be seen
as a moments
red and green.
All remembered
might move on
as it finds
another dawn.
If confusion’s
on your face
search to find
that happy place.
Don’t let minutes
worry you.
Do the best
that you can do.

Summers Paintings

Sounds of summer
fall in place
with the echoes
seasons race.
Scenes around me
come in sight
in the summers
day and night.
In the meadows
summer glows
where there once was
winter snows.
Summers paintings
are with green
and some others
that I’ve seen.
All the pictures
painted true
are of summer
and its view.

Crescent Moon

A peaceful scene
in crescent moon
makes so many
hearts to swoon.
In the nighttime
scenes become
as some hearts own
beating drum.
Often romance
shadows gleam
are as beauty
in a dream.
A peaceful scene
within the night
are as shadows
dimming light.
Hearts afire
true as gold
live within
this night of old.
A peaceful scene
of lovers place
finds God’s beauty
through His Grace.
With the heartbeats
love so true
the crescent moon
displays its view.

Through The Night

Sounds of silence
through the night
seem to echo
left and right.
Yet the music
that plays on
just continues
until dawn.
Making silence
better seen
found within
a moments dream.
Many sounds
from there and then
seem to be
where times begin.
Sounds of silence
still are heard
without voices
of a word.
Many echoes
in the dark
are where silence
does embark.
Such as fragments
will and way
that enlightens
break of day.

I Now Remember

I can remember
a time long ago
when I was younger
and playing in snow.
A wonderful moment
when I was so small
I can remember
then standing so tall.
I can still feel it
the feelings that day
inside my mind now
as I dream away.
All of those moments
of much younger years
brought me the minutes
right now so endears.
I now remember
those times as I do
as if they’re living
right now so anew.

When Seasons Are Askew

With the seasons
there are times
with their wondrous
own designs.
Seasons changing
day and night
bring the pages
I delight.
Yet there’s also
seasons view
that will sometimes
seem askew.
Such as winters
brought so green
just like Texas
has been seen.
But the winters
up in Maine
bring the winters
ones complain.
With the coldness
to and fro
and the sight of
deep deep snow.
So when seasons
are askew
look to find a
better view.

Heavens Hopeful

Heavens hopeful
finds a place
filled with moments
saving grace.
Godly blessings
sometimes found
may not seem as
oh so sound.
Yet the blessings
that God sends
are the needed
moments winds.
We may see them
as just pain
and not see
the minutes gain.
The angels born
of every day
are much more
to show the way.
Giving strength
from God above
with His hopeful
heart of love.

More Than HoHoHo

Christmas mornings
long ago
now is more than
HoHoHo.
It’s remembered
as a time
that of winters
snows design.
Also Christmas
is the day
that brings blessings
prayerful way.
Brought by Jesus
God’s Own Son
to do what that
none have done.
A great Christmas
was then born
from the time
that I adorn.
Find the blessings
in The Name
from the time
that Jesus came.

Haiku
for Aug 20, 2011

The sound of chirping
brings to life a summers morn
as birds gather round.

In but a moment
time will be just a shadow
of its mere moment.

The fragrance of time
can be determined as views
created by scent.

A mower mowing
brings to life the scented smell
of freshly mown grass.

A mornings breakfast
gives the day a fighting chance,
so take time to eat.

Still waters stagnate
leaving no growth to be seen.
Don’t be a puddle.

Misery seeks others
as a fly on fly paper
stuck waiting for friends.

Ignoring problems
might make them get much larger.
Find how to solve them.

In a mere shadow
lives the voice of a moment
gathered throughout time.

Scenes within minutes
can become actors on stage,
so don’t be stupid.

Letters in our words
create many expressions
often misconceived.

Painting a painting
needs many patient brushstrokes
of what’s in the mind.

Tempers that explode
might cause the wrong emotions
to the wrong person.

Simple sighted days
move as echoes in a trance
with simplicity.

Searching memories
sometimes makes many look good
that were not so well.

The scent of flowers
in the dawn of the morning
brings joy to my heart.

A small daffodil
grows amongst many others,
but shines of itself.

A paper morning
that’s drawn to its conclusion
might seem as insane.

While catching a breeze
you can ride amongst the waves
as a ship in time.

Hunting for peaceful
needs be done from the inside
through God’s only Son.

Today’s confusion
could be of your own making
and how you view it.

Pouring emotions
as waters on a desert
might find no feelings.
