Take It To Prayer

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

How have you been holding out through the weird weather?
Judy and I have been just sitting and waiting for it to decide
what it’s gonna do LOL. Today it’s cold as normal with a
temperature of 22 F right now at 2:30 PM. It’s supposed
to get down to 12 F degrees tonight with snow expected in
the evening of tomorrow. Other than that it’s just supposed
to get much colder and by Wednesday night reach subzero
temperatures. Hello Mr. Winter! So what else is happening
around this place? Not much other than the boys in here at
the moment trying to get our attention LOL. Yep, Judy is
up and in here with me. She’s browsing around Facebook.
I just gave Benny and Milo some dog biscuits and it shut
them up for a bit, but now Benny is barking at something
that he heard outside LOL. Judy just went in there to see
what the commotion was about and to show him that there
is nothing out there to bark at LOL. He’s quiet for the
moment hehehe. I just gave Benny the other half of his
dog biscuit and he took it and ran into the bedroom with
it hehehe. Now I gave Milo the other half to his and he’s
chewing it while sitting in his doggy bed LOL. Ok, they
have had their treats. Now, let me write, ya ornery little
boys :). The sun is shining bright as I look outside our
window. Yet soon the sun will set and it will get much
colder and the sun will be setting in about 40 minutes :).
Sunrise is around 7 AM. It makes for a short day, but
then we don’t go to bed until maybe around 6 or 7 in the
morning so the day is half over by the time we get up
out of bed. Yep, we be night owls. The boys continue
as always, but as dogs will do, they sleep most of the
time anyways, so it doesn’t phase them. We have to
have a little talk to Milo almost every night about when
he can sleep on our bed LOL. He wants to lie in bed
with us, but neither of us can sleep then, because
then Benny wants up and there’s not much room left
for us to stretch out LOL, so they sleep in their own
beds when we are trying to sleep. They’re gradually
getting the perspective of when and where they can
sleep. They’ve gotten to where they pop their little
heads up aside the bed as if asking for permission
to come aboard, but if we say no, they get down
and either go to their own beds or find something
else to occupy their time. OK, so now it’s time for
a change in topic. Tomorrow, Judy is going over
to her sisters house to be with her mom while her
sister goes to her doctors appointment. So, it’ll just
be me and the boys for a while. Hehehe and we’re
gonna bark about guy stuff. That is unless Judy
decides to take the boys with her and then it will
just be me myself and I just talking to the walls.
No matter, I’m sure I will find something to do to
keep me busy. Maybe wash dishes or laundry
or both hehehe. I just told Judy to drive careful
when she leaves to go over Trudy’s and to also be
careful coming home because it’s supposed to
to start snowing at noon tomorrow and not stop
until early Tuesday morning. At least that’s what
my weather programs say. There’s not much else
to report from the Pearce’s Place other than we
are ecstatically waiting for Christmas. This is
our favorite time of year. It always makes our
hearts all a twitter. I might dig out our Christmas
tree tomorrow and get it ready for us to decorate
when she gets home 🙂 We’ve got year round
Christmas stuff that never gets put away, but
the tree has to come down every year being we
have a lot of dust in the air and we tried leaving
it up a couple of years, but it began to look like
a dust ball and it’s hard to dust a freaking tree.
LOL, so it goes down maybe around January or
February hehehe or maybe later. I love to look
at it as it twinkles in the night. So there ya go 🙂
a little looksee inside our lives. God is always
with us giving us what we need when we can’t do
it ourselves. LOL I wish He would help me with
the snoring coming from the floor. They are both
now lying right beside me in their beds just sawing
logs. Talk about some ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ’S :).
I had to take some Benadryl or the generic of
it so to say just a bit ago, being it seems my old
nose is in active mode either running, sneezing or
BOTH. I hate having allergies, but I’ve had em
all my life and no they are not seasonal. They
are everydayonal hehehe. Not a day goes by
that I am not sneezing my brains out LOL which
could explain the times that I seem to ramble
on and on about nothing :). None the less, I will
survive as long as God sees a purpose for me.
Have you come to a place and time that you are
feeling useless? Maybe you need to step out
of yourself for a moment and look to see what
you can do for others. That might be what God
is wanting you to do. Take it to prayer and I’m
sure the answers will come to you. Maybe not in
a flash, but as the days pass, you might see the
windows open letting you see what you need to
do. Yet, don’t rush into anything blindly, for
that could end up with regret and despair. Judy
is fixing her and I some cereal, so I might have
to stop here for a moment before searching for
a title LOL. Ok, I finished my cereal and as
I look outside at 4:22 PM it is dark. LOL hard
to believe that not but just a few minutes ago it
was bright and sunny huh! I guess it’s time for
me to take my little momentous voyage back
through all I’ve written to see if I can find a
good word or phrase that I can use for the title
of today’s brand new poem. So it’s away I go to
that place of my recollection that I always like
to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I think I found
a usable title just a few lines back, but I still
think I might ought to check to make sure that
I haven’t used it already :). Nope I haven’t
used it yet, so here goes.

Take It To Prayer

When life is seeming
to end up no fair
look then to God then
and take it to prayer.
When many struggles
are coming to you
take it to prayer then
and find life anew.
When you’re with mornings
that seem to explode
take it to prayer then
and give God your load.
When there are storm clouds
that timeframes bestow
take it to prayer then
and find a rainbow.
When you are feeling
you need some fresh air
kneel down to Jesus
and take it to prayer.

OK, there ya go! I hope you enjoyed my rambling and
maybe even the poem 🙂 Yep, it was hard to write all of
this with all the doggy interruptions hehehe. They have
though settled down for a nap in their beds on the floor
right between Judy and I. They have though switched
beds LOL. Now Milo is lying in the bed nearest Judy
and Benny is in the bed nearest me. Ok so he is just
a few inches from my chair. We’ve gotta always look
first before rolling our chairs anywhere LOL. Oh well,
they love us and we love them. They always want to
be near us :). If either us goes to the bathroom, they
will be just outside the door just waiting for us to come
out. Silly things! Well, 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. This week I wrote 10
more poems with 8 of them, that’s right I said 8 of
them, being Christmas poems HoHoHo. I also once
again wrote 22 more haiku for all of my haiku lovers
out there. WOW, I just looked outside and there’s
no light at all. It be DARK. Thank God for porch
lights :). So, now I guess I need to be searching for
that confounded 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
freaking off switch that just loves to irritate me by
hiding in the stupidest places LOL. Hey, where
is that darned thing? He’s hiding pretty good this
week hehehe. PSYCH, I see ya hiding behind the
eye drops. How could I miss ya? It’s a tiny bottle!
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Curious Cloud

December clouds
come floating in
to make the season
to begin.
A curious cloud
of greyish white
seems to come
into my sight.
Decembers essence
gathers mass
as some more then
come to pass.
That curious cloud
is found with more
filled with snow
that I adore.
It seems to speak
of Christmastime
in its daily
own design.
That curious cloud
within my sight
now bestows
some snow of white.
Then those flakes
that fall and land
help to make
December grand.
Christmas shadows
find their view
as the smiles
from me and you.
Watching snowflakes
time’s endowed
coming from
a curious cloud.

The Seasons Glance

Shimmering sunsets
bringing in nights
display the beauty
of Christmastimes lights.
The seasons glance
is found to and fro
sometimes as displays
of Decembers snow.
As ones are watching
the days pass on by
the seasons glance
displays in the sky.
Wintertime’s stories
so many will hear
the seasons glance
of year after year.
Christmases scenery
that some don’t know
fills up a child’s mind
with men out of snow.
A snowman of winter
in Christmastimes view
is the seasons glance
ones wish for so true.
The sunrise of Christmas
brings ones song and dance
as they find blessings
in the seasons glance.

Crossing Paths

As fall is just a
memory
Winter comes
so much to see.
Bringing snowflakes
far and wide
that December
is applied.
Yet so many have
only seen
white snow falling
in a dream.
Crossing paths
from thereunto
many find
no snow to view.
Paths from places
many go
are of green
and without snow.
Christmastime
so much to see
is often found
in memory.
Stories read
of Santa’s craft
are with many
crossing paths.

Time For Smiles

So many people
find only what’s sad
through all the living
that they ever had.
Look for the goodness.
It does so exist.
Yet it is sometimes
what you might of missed.
Look now and find what
smiles you’ve forgotten
that you just might of
discerned as just rotten.
Sometimes a moment
that you can remember
is just distorted
in its burning ember.
It’s time for smiles
right now today
and let the frowns
to fade away.
It’s time to change
those moments miles
and find the joy.
It’s time for smiles.

Infinite Christmas

When snow has melted
and lights are all gone
the infinite Christmas
will live on and on.
It lives as a blessing.
It lives as a smile.
It lives as momentous times
unending mile.
Yet many people will
let it fall away
as the infinite Christmas then
turns into grey.
The day of pure greatness
should stay within you
as an infinite Christmas
you always can view.
Being thankful for Lord God
and His Only Son
allowing the blessings to
live one by one.
Don’t let the shadows
of sadness reside.
Let infinite Christmas
to live deep inside.
Make every days minutes
the greatest to be
as an infinite Christmas
so happy with glee.
Welcome the spirit
of Christmastime day
into your moments time
every which way.
Even in springtime
and summertime skies
the infinite Christmas can
bring you surprise.
Gifts found unending
as blessings are found,
the infinite Christmas
is always around.

Remember When

Seasonal meadows
covered with snow
bring us the glimmers of
all that we know.
Christmassy essence of
white over green
that we remember with
every great scene.
When the snow’s falling
and where it all lands
it brings the meadows
some sparkling white sands.
Remember when minutes
of then and there sights
glimmer through daytime
and on into nights.
The Christmassy moments
that displayed so true
are when we remember then
within our view.
When we are watching
and searching the sights
we can find Christmastimes
sparkling lights.
Twinkling and blinking times
now unto then
are the Christmas lights
that I remember when.

Within A Day

A day full of shadows
has things you can see
sometimes as you then
and sometimes as me.
Within a day finds
things we might do
that found much later
finds sorrow in you.
The minutes tick on as
our time goes its way
while ones find regretful then
within a day.
Don’t let your wanna to
lead you to bad
found within a day
of wishing you had.
Often if waited for
you might just find
that within a day
you changed your mind.

Heavenly Christmas

With seasonal singing
of songs oh so fine
I am enjoying
this great Christmastime.
So Heavenly given
from God up above
I find that Christmas’s
filled full of love.
It’s a Heavenly Christmas
with joy in the air
given with passion
of God’s love and care.
It’s a Heavenly time
that makes many dance
for Christmastime gives
our Heaven a chance.
It’s a Heavenly Christmas
that seasons display
found as the blessings
of sweet Christmas day.
Jesus and The Father
united as one,
A Heavenly Christmas
that’s second to none.

Seasons In The Sun

Through mornings of sunrise
and evenings sunset
the seasons in the sun
are hard to forget.
When glimmers of Christmas
come clear into view
the seasons in the sun
show a magical hue.
Flavored horizons
the seasons will show
are sometimes shaded
with white fallen snow.
The seasons become as
some pictures to take
photos of seasonal
fragrant landscape.
Painted with brushstrokes
that cannot be caught
as seasons in the sun
that are not store bought.
With every true painting
that’s found within sight
Christmas is turnstiles
left and then right.
Like minutes in a book
of a seasonal stage
the seasons in the sun
are page after page.
Written as a journal
that’s remembered in time
the seasons in the sun
are from Lord God Divine.
With Christmastimes essence
the seasons explore
timeframes of seasons
so many adore.
Seasons in the sun
of a magical quest
are found at Christmastime
season of best.
The times we remembered
found one by one
are that of Christmastimes
seasons in the sun.

Christmas Slumber

As night arrives
with dreams to take
Christmas slumber
comes awake.
Bringing forth
some Christmas snow
along with Santa’s
HoHoHo.
Christmas slumber
lives and breathes
as some lit up
Christmas trees.
Santa’s journey
far and wide
starts with dreams
found deep inside.
Christmas slumber
night has shown
brings the hopes
a child has known.
Living as a
spark of love
Santa comes from
up above.
In his sleigh
with toys galore
that weren’t bought
from any store.
He lands upon
the house at night
and looks to see
no sign of light.
Then Santa puts some
toys up under
the decked out tree
in Christmas slumber.
After that
he touches his nose
and up to his sleigh
again he goes.
That Christmas slumber
starry night
then awakens
to daylight.
Christmas morning
then is found
Christmas gifts then
all around.

Haiku
for Dec 6, 2013

Having a heartbeat
does not mean you have true love,
for love is much more.

A sign of winter
might come with cold winds blowing
and maybe some snow.

A shadow of you
might display your true pattern,
so live honestly.

When a storm has passed
it often leaves remembrance
inside peoples minds.

An echo is real,
but just a part of the truth
which started its voyage.

The storms of today
might become mere memories
we’ll laugh at later.

Wintertime’s fragrance
is often found with snowflakes
and some chimney smoke.

Looks from a person
might be misconceived as wrong
and not what they meant.

Within a window
holds the views of perception
that often is missed.

When life gives problems
let them grow into answers
for a better day.

Starlight will twinkle
as we stare up at nighttime
searching for answers.

Limits put on time
are often hurried moments
that need to slow down.

The growth of a seed
needs some water and sunshine
along with some love.

In but a moment
a heartbeat could cease beating,
so enjoy right now.

If your mind wanders
find the reason behind it
and unlock answers.

With a beginning
there has to be an ending
to allow new time.

Conclusion jumping
can destroy any friendship,
so find out the truth.

A ghostly shadow
might not be one you’re to fear
for it might be good.

Listening to hearts
can bring disillusionment
for they might be dead.

Within a window
holds the chances for seeing
a new day dawning.

A sunshiny day
brings forth many forms of peace
that some might not see.

With many questions
comes some unwanted answers
that might do you good.
