ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

So how’s life treating ya? It’s been fairly nice up this
way. The sun is shining and it’s 68F degrees with a nice
breeze. It’s actually partly cloudy, but then hehehehehe
that’s the way it is most every day up here so no complaint
from me. I’m just glad it’s not raining today. We might
go outside and play with Benny. He likes it better when
we go out with him. He don’t like it when we stay inside.
Yet, when he does come back in, he loves to wrestle and
play chase throughout the house hehehe. He’s gotten to
when he even barks time to time when he’s wanting us to
play with him. OK, so it’s onto maybe another topic LOL.
My mother bought her a WorxGT weed eater like ours.
I think she likes it. Both Judy and I love ours. It only
weighs about 5 or 6 pounds and it’s battery operated 🙂
Anyways, mom, I hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoy
ours. There’s not much changed up here in our little tiny
corner of the world. Nope, Judy and I still do much of the
same stuff as always LOL. Yea I know, BORING hehe.
Hey, we’re retired on SSD, what do ya expect? It’s not
like we’re rich or anything hehehehe. Ok, we’re rich in
the status that we have each other and Benny as well as
we have God in our lives. Yes that my friends is richness
beyond anything that money can buy. Yes we bought
Benny, but money could not replace him and his love.
Benny is part of our family now, not just a measly pet.
He’s our little boy that we love without ending, just as
God loves us without ending. But God’s love goes far
beyond anything that we could ever possibly comprehend.
Yes we’re all sinners, for we make mistakes from the
time we awaken from sleep till the time we go back
to slumber. Even some of our dreams are comprised
of hidden sins of wanna. I know I have guardian angels
watching over me. Hehehe I say ANGELS, because
I don’t think one could’ve handled me hehehehehehe.
God knows who I am and all of my silliness and He
still loves me. Don’t ever think that just because you
have sinned, that you cannot find GRACE in Jesus.
It just takes a simple prayer, a simple word or a
simple thought and Jesus is there with forgiveness.
A long time ago, I thought I was not worth loving,
but God showed me that I was and He also exposed
my many talents and gifts that I could share with
the world. Yours might not stand out, but they are
none the less important. Find peace in today as you
find your blessings through Christ. Now I think I’m
needing to cease my incessant rambling hehehehe
and begin my search for a word or phrase through
all that I’ve written here that might work well 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 might of found
a good title, but as they always say, the proof is
in the pudding hehehehe. Here goes…..

God’s Love Goes Far

With every little burden
comes hope where we are,
shining as a glimmer
of God’s Shining Star.
Things might seem hopeless
when time goes its way,
but blessings are given
when we kneel and pray.
Know minute nor moment
can be found alone
if you have Jesus
in your flesh and bone.
He will be with you
no matter where you are,
because He’s the essence
that God’s love goes far.
Seasons will blossom
with problems you see,
but surely you’ll make it
with His Grace for free.

Ok, so it ain’t one of my best poems LOL. I tried hehehe.
So, is there anything I’ve forgot to mention before????????
Not that I can think of. Of course that doesn’t mean that
I haven’t forgotten anything LOL, because ya know I must
have hehehe. Oh well, it must not be important or for that
matter I might think of it yet 🙂 None the less, I guess it’s
time for me to be telling you what I tell you every week and
that is, I wrote some more poems and haiku. Yeppers 10
more poems, with one of them this time being a Christmas
poem hehe. Also I wrote once again 22 more haiku for all
of my haiku lovers out there. LOL oh yea, I wrote them
all once again this morning before I started the journal 🙂
Hehehe, hey, I have no set schedule for writing ya know.
I just write when the mood hits me and what that comes
into my mind as either memories or just mere thoughts of
mine that seem to always be poetic for some reason hehehe.
So, now it’s about time for me to be searching for that old
off switch that loves to play hide and seek almost the same
as Benny hehehe. But Benny likes me to hide and him try
to find me LOL. Oh well, before I begin searching for
that off switch I need to wish you a most wonderful God
filled week. Remember, Jesus loves you and we do too.
Now to find that off switch, not Benny hehehe. Found
it making as breeze that fell asleep hehehehehehehehe.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehe 🙂

Windy Morning

Breezes blowing
give and take
are well found
when I’m awake.
Windy morning
speaks its peace
with its dawning
times release.
Not a fragment
goes unseen
as I welcome
it extreme.
Windy morning
now and then
helps me daily
to begin.
With its blowing
there and to
I find blessings
so anew.

Now’s A Glimmer
Yesterdays shadows
might still be
as a glimmer
that you see.
Now’s a dawning
new begun
with the sight of
mornings sun.
Now’s a glimmer
that can be
better than our
history.
What we’ve surely
one day done
that can be a
better one.
Now’s a glimmer
given free
that God gave to
you and me.

As Remembered

Times of sorrow
well pronounced
sometimes become
days that bounced.
As remembered
sees tomorrow
as the echoed
times of sorrow.
Lose that sadness
that is found
and then see what
can abound.
You might find some
blessings seen
that are better
than a dream.
Let your sadness
just remember
all that’s found
one burning ember.
For the blessings
that you missed
might be found in
today’s list.

Summer’s Recall

Different settings
morning to night
become the flavors
found in my sight.
I recall winters
found so to see
filled up with snowflakes
sweet as can be.
Summer’s recall
sweet shadows cast
as that of winters
found in the past.
I see the pages
summer to fall
as that of stages
I now recall.
Now as the summer
fills up my mind
I can see hopeful
of sweet wintertime.

A Minutes Excursion

A minutes excursion
might be out of place
as just a wanting
not found in God’s Grace.
Sometimes a moment
might seem as so great
that you for wanting
just cannot then wait.
Our hurried minutes
can become our Hell
if we allow them
to always take sail.
Let not your wantings
to take firm control,
for you might find then
a real heavy toll.
A minutes excursion
might be dynamite
blowing up blessings
much better in sight.

Too Good To Be True

Sometimes a doorway
that we’ve entered through
looks at the moment
a real scary view.
It’s often fear of
what we do not know
that makes real scary
the doorways we go.
Let Jesus guide you
as you walk on in
as you pray surely
to stay within Him.
Sometimes a doorway
will have warning signs
written real clearly
as much better times.
If you are thinking
too good to be true,
then it most surely
might not be for you.

Thresholds Design

Found as a pothole
from our time to time
is but a glimmer of
thresholds design.
Often those gateways
so bumpy as hell
have many lessons
of which they can tell.
A thresholds design
might not have a key
and nor a doorknob
of which you can see.
Sometimes a threshold
is just but a phase
found in a moment
with horrific days.
So if you’re seeing
a thresholds design
make sure is God’s Will
and not a land mine.

Unanswered Questions

When you are weary
and needing some love
seek for God’s blessings
found from above.
If your are standing
with questions that grow,
let Jesus answer with
what you need know.
Unanswered questions
might be just too soon
for you to right now
to surely attune.
Often God’s answers
are not yes or no.
Sometimes they’re not now
for you then to know.
Sometimes unanswered
questions in phase
are God just waiting
for much better days.

Dreams of Christmas

Snowflakes in the distance
all falling with grace
seem to design
everything every place.
Sweet dreams of Christmas
come to me right now
with all the blessings
of which they endow.
White snow just floating
right down from the sky
as that of dreams
with a special reply.
Sweet thoughts of Santa
with right then and there
and most important
is God’s answered prayer.
My dreams of Christmas
come most every day
and I thank Jesus
as I kneel and pray.
Sweet dreams of Christmas
are mine now to hold
when times are troubled
and feeling so cold.
Thinking about Christmas
helps my every sight
when I am needing
some smiles day and night.
My dreams of Christmas
always keep me going
as I remember
that white fluffy snowing.
Flakes landing softly
on here there around
as they make pillows
of white on the ground.

A Gentle Heartbeat

A gentle heartbeat
beats a rhythm
that is love
which God has given.
Fragrant flowers
smell so sweet
as a gentle
ones heartbeat.
Simple moments
fall in place
giving ones a
smiling face.
A gentle heartbeat
beating true
might then find
a place in you.
Let your heartbeat
be so fine
as a blessing
in design.
Search the rhythms
in each beat
and see Jesus
oh so sweet.

Haiku
for June 10, 2012

Today is a breath
that Lord God’s breathed life within
and given chances.

Neither right nor wrong
can live without each other
for they give lessons.

Bringing a heartache
into a new tomorrow
can destroy chances.

Pieces of a life
are placed in secret places
with many ashamed.

Searching for true love
can land you in much trouble
if you look blindly.

Leaving a flower
un watered without sunshine
will cause its demise.

Winter’s remembered
as Christmas and God’s blessings
of Jesus His Son.

Soon ones tomorrow
will become their yesterday
filled full of regret.

Chain links that we’ve forged
could become Hell in disguise,
so make sure they’re good.

Finding a shadow
where there’s no reason for it
could expose a ghost.

Today’s bitterness
could bring about much sadness
in your tomorrows.

Forces of nature
come sometimes as decisions
along with results.

Handwritten letters
leave a fingerprint that’s found
as their emotion.

Many deceptions
come as the hopeful glimmers
that are not from God.

Pieces of summer
are spread about like butter
on our days ahead.

Beyond our thinking
are the thoughts we do not know,
that we think about.

Places we’ve been to
become pictures in our minds
that need no camera.

Summers beginnings
are the shadows of springtime
and glimmers of fall.

Tomorrows windows
are sometimes way too dirty
to see clearly through.

Knowing your limits
could prevent you from falling,
but then maybe not.

Listening to wind
as it blows its breath of air,
you might hear a voice.

Beginnings endings
will often share the same space
for a brief moment.
