ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s been raining most of the night and all morning/day,
but I ain’t complaining, because I like the sounds of it
as it pitter patters on the roof. Benny though does not
like to go out in the rain even with his raincoat, so it
makes it a little difficult getting him to go out and pee
and whatever else LOL. He’ll hold it as long as he can
before he’ll go outside hehehe. Though sooner or later
he’s either gotta go outside or he will burst. It sounds
like the rain has subsided a tad. Judy said she’s going
to go and see if Benny wants to go out now while there
is a break in the rain. It’s supposed to rain all week 🙂
Oh well, soon it will change to snow LOL. Judy and
I will be celebrating our 11 year wedding anniversary
this Tuesday October 2nd. Can you believe that she
has put up with me all those years? Neither of us can
picture our lives without each other and Benny has
become a big part of that. He’s our little boy and we
love him oh so very much. LOL Benny still doesn’t
want to go outside to do his thing. Judy said it’s still
raining a little. Oh well, I have an emergency pee
board for him if he finds he can’t hold it. There’s
a doggie pee pad on it kind of like a diaper hehehe.
It’s hard to believe he has only been with us since
March. It seems as though he has always been with
us. He’s learning things quickly. Like if he gets to
playing to rough and all, I just point at him and say
STOP. He does and mellows out. Judy has trouble
doing that and sounding forceful hehehe. Oh well
He’ll soon understand that no matter how it’s said
it means STOP. I used to raise dogs long ago and
also, it seems my nickname suits me hehe. I have
always been good with animals. Hey, here’s a bit
of a question for ya LOL. Does Mountain Dew turn
your mustache yellow? Hehehe it seems to do that
to mine for some dumb reason LOL. Judy said it
doesn’t look yellow today hehehe. I do wash out
my mustache and beard every time I get a chance
so I have no clue 🙂 It might be some chemical in
the Mountain Dew that causes it hehehe. Oh well,
I love Mountain Dew, but I might switch to either
7up or Sprite one day being Mountain Dews have
more caffeine than any of them. Ok so it’s onto yet
another topic hopefully. It looks like the show we
usually watch on Sunday night is not on tonight
being Ice Road Truckers had it’s season finally
last Sunday. So I guess we’ll watch Wipe Out 🙂
which is one of our favorites also. Judy’s oldest
daughter Mandy and Tom are getting married
on Saturday October 6th. Hehehehe just 4 days
after mine and Judy’s anniversary. They have
been together for 14 years and have a daughter
together named Rylee. In my books they are
very much married, but they want to do it right
and have a wedding. Mandy came over Friday
and brought Chance and Rylee. We had a great
time. Benny had a blast playing with the kids,
but even he got worn out after a while hehehe.
I got a few good pictures of them. Benny’s in
his little doggie bed in the floor beside me right
now. He keeps looking up at me with those lil
puppy dog eyes as if to say play with me hehehe.
I will after I finish writing 🙂 We’ve still gotta see
about finding something to fix to eat. Neither Judy
nor I have eaten yet. You’d think I would lose a
little weight with the amount of food I don’t eat,
but nope. I could go all day without eating and
still weigh the same LOL. I guess I’m stuck with
weighing 220 because the scales always say the
same thing every time I step on em hehehehehe.
Well there’s not much else to report from here
at the Pearce’s Place. Life is still moving right
along. Benny’s moved from his little bed in the
floor and now lying in the floor against the door
to our PC room. God has most surely blessed us
with our little boy Benny. God has put all three
of us together as the right pieces of a puzzle that
connect making a picture. Yes I miss all of my
many friends and family in Texas, but I started
thinking about the olden days. My grandmother
turned 105 on September 20th. She’s seen times
without cars or TV’s along with tons of things
that we today think we could never live without.
Imagine if it were 1907 again and you had family
that you wanted to visit. Even if they were only
20 miles away, it was a very long ride in a horse
and buggy. When grandmother was 18 in 1925
and I’m sure she enjoyed life not knowing about
any of the things we have today. I remember the
reel to reel, 4 track tapes, 8 track tapes and the
evolved cassette tapes not to mention the records
of speeds of 78, 33 and 45. God has shown me
things that make me more appreciative of what
we have now. Let God show you your blessings
that you may have overlooked. Sometimes we
might get caught up in the realm of wanna and
forget about how things once were. Be thankful.
Now I believe it’s time for me to be taking my little
stroll back through all that I have written here to
see if I can find a good word or phrase that might
work well for the title of today’s brand new poem.
So it’s off I go to that place of my recollection
that I like to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I think
I may have found a good title, but I’ve gotta look
and see if I haven’t already used it hehehe. Ok so
I haven’t used it. Here goes. Hope it makes sense.

May Have Overlooked

Life in it’s moments
find ways to dance
giving us choices
filled with a chance.
You and I daily
may have overlooked
so many blessings
minutes have booked.
Often the doorways
that we’ve walked through
lead us to pathways
Hell thereunto.
We may have overlooked
what blessings reside
when we look always
to our side to side.
Look for the miracles
that God has so great
given you surely
that you thought as fate.
You may have overlooked
the good times begun
when you lost sight of
Lord God’s Only Son.

So there ya go! I hope that makes at least a little
sense to ya 🙂 I’m getting hungry. I told Judy that
if she was hungry than to go ahead and eat, but
she’s bound and determined to wait for me hehehe.
So, I guess I need to be winding this up and tell ya
what I tell ya every week. I wrote 10 more poems
with 3 of them being Christmassy poems and I also
wrote once again 22 more haiku. I wrote all of the
poems and haiku Saturday for a change hehehehe
except of course for the one I wrote just a moment
ago 🙂 I reckon it’s time for me 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 off
switch. Ah hah, I found you ya little whippersnapper.
Now get out of my hair hehehehehehehehehehehe.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Tons

Tons of people,
tons of times
head out in
their own designs.
Tons of minutes,
tons of sights
scenes are changing
days and nights.
Tons of choices,
tons of clues
come with many
daily dues.
Tons of mishaps
turn to good
through the things
misunderstood.
Tons of people,
tons of days
do some things
within their ways.
Tons illusions,
tons misled
need God’s help
with days ahead.

Soon It Will Be

Soon it will be Christmas
with shadows of gold
filled with the stories
that many have told.
Soon all the stockings
will be hung up with care
just waiting for Santa
and his Christmas flare.
Soon many children
will be found happily
awaiting through dreamland
for Santa to see.
Soon also many will
find in their hearts
scenes they remember
that Christmas imparts.
Passion of Christmastime
will be in place
filled with the blessings
found through God’s grace.
Soon many pages
of Christmas we see
will be with snowflakes
soon it will be.

Points of Thunder

Sounds of raindrops
in the night
might be followed
with some light.
Lightning striking
here and there
with the raindrops
in night air.
Points of thunder
might be heard
as the lightning’s
every word.
Sound might echo
through the rain
bouncing off
my windowpane.
Scenes will surely
fade away
with the coming
of the day.
Then the memoirs
points of thunder
will be just a
moments wonder.

Clingers Vine

With ones lonely
time to time
there is found
a clingers vine.
Oh so many
times bestow
windows of ones
seen so low.
A clingers vine
is often found
when they want
someone around.
Often heartache
that they’ve seen
becomes fuel
for less esteem.
Then the clingers
vine in place
lives and breathes
upon their face.
Learn to find
within your heart
a better place
of which to start.
Don’t just cling to
now and then.
Find some peace
from deep within.
Let God’s blessings
fill your void
showing what can
be enjoyed.
So if lonely’s
your design
let God cure
your clingers vine.

Flavors of Christmas

Beyond every Christmas
lives our memories
found as the flavors
of holidays seas.
Waves of emotions
bounce on our shore
giving us blessings
that we do adore.
Flavors of Christmas
will come as a taste
that oh so many
might let go to waste.
Scenes all around us
will just seem to flow
maybe with blue skies,
maybe with snow.
Remember the flavors
of that special day
tasting as wonderful
Christmastimes way.
Scenes we have harnessed
where Jesus resides
flavors of Christmas
with love as its prize.

Lives That Connect

Many variations
of different views
might become rhythms
of different shoes.
Many tap dancing
to their own accord
leave us just wondering
do they know The Lord.
Lives that connect
make imprints in time
that might become
another’s design.
You might just be
the change in someone
with something you said
or something you’ve done.
Patterns of echoes
might be found correct
by something through God
with lives that connect.

Patient Eyes

With much patience
life can be
better found
for you and me.
Letting hurry
fall away
might make better
now today.
Yet don’t let
your life to lose
what you need
to better choose.
Patient eyes
can find you peace
with what’s seen
you need release.
Letting time to
move its way
patient eyes
will be OK.
Let not hurry
take control,
for in time
you’ll pay a toll.
Do things calmly
as you drive
in your heart
to stay alive.

Windows Closed

Ventured forethought
times exposed
might be sights of
windows closed.
For some forethought
not so good
might just be
misunderstood.
Segments founded
that we think
might just be
a ship to sink.
Opened windows
with good thought
might show greatly
what should not.
Letting eyesight
see what’s true
might then give a
better view.
Windows closed
will only show
minds not wishing
truth to know.

Holiday Blessings

The year moves slowly
for many so young,
but when they’re older
speed has begun.
Holiday blessings
of Christmastime’s cheer
come then so quickly
within every year.
Yet it’s the quickness
that brings one’s like me
seasonal wonders
of Christmas to see.
New England snowflakes
falling so white
with holiday blessings
of Christmas delight.
Wintertime’s doorways
open to show
scenes within Christmas
found white as snow.
Holiday blessings
come in with love
found as some snowflakes
white as a dove.

A Newsy Day

Words in papers
and TV
a newsy day
so many see.
Some are liars
with each word
saying things then
so absurd.
A newsy day
of busy times
might be found
with crooked lines.
Let not newsy
live in you.
Find out what that’s
really true.
Don’t let hearsay
live and breathe.
Find the truth
you’re to believe.

Haiku
for Sept 29, 2012

Losing your patience
could cause you to lose a friend.
Find peace in Jesus.

Times filled with blunder
can become all of your thoughts.
Look for the good times.

When in a moment
you might do something wrongly
you’ll regret later.

Leaving yesterday
needs you to let loose of it
and live in today.

Bouncing off of rocks
is a perspective of time
when our troubles come.

A ship found at sea
might lose its way in a storm,
but God knows its path.

Lessons through heartaches
will sometimes feel as torment,
but be good teachers.

Some clouds might blow in
bringing thunderstorms of time,
but blue skies will come.

Ventured illusions
can leave bad tastes in your mouth.
Don’t live in a lie.

Summers memories
are as glimmers of yesterday
while fall comes to be.

Rekindled passion
might prove to be not so good
with bad remembered.

Gliding in the wind
as a bird that’s caught a breeze
can become trouble.

Angels from Heaven
watch over us every day,
but allow the truth.

Scenes in our lifestyles
could become distorted paths
that we got lost in.

Radiant sunshine
becomes a beacon of light
to guide us each day.

Breaking a promise
leaves ones to truly wonder
are you ever true.

Curtains on windows
hide the ugly from outside
just as many smiles.

Bouncing as rubber
could land you in a big stew
unable to bounce.

Emotional times
cause many to say wrongly
what should not be said.

Fluently worded
ones will still misunderstand
due to wrong language.

A mere thought in time
brings many flowers to life.
That thought is from God.

With today’s fragrance
comes an emotional journey
guided by moments.

Words that are written
will often times resurface,
but what’s said will hurt.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

How’ve ya been? We’ve been doing OK. Our car is
finally fixed thank God. Danny at McCann’s Auto did
a great job. Anyways, we’re glad to have the car up
and running. Now on with the journal hehe or at least
attempt to. Benny is in an excited mood and running
around the house LOL. Sounds like the gallop of little
horse hehehe. The weather up this way has cooled off
a bit more. I’m sitting here with my allergies sneezing
my fool head off LOL. Hard to type in between sneezes.
Hehehe Ahhhchew, life goes on. Well, I once again
got a late start on the poems and haiku hehehehehehe.
Oh well, I got em written just a bit ago. Judy helped
me look for typo’s as she does most times. Lil Benny’s
under my chair right now licking my feet and I don’t
have to tell you how distracting that is hehehehehehe.
Now he’s gone up under Judy’s chair and licking her
feet LOL. She said, she’s not eating, so lick away.
Today’s been sort of rainy, but temperature wise it’s
been rather nice. Right now it’s 48F degrees at 7 PM.
It’s supposed to get down to 39F degrees tonight 🙂
Nice snuggling weather. Tomorrows high is supposed
to around 63F degrees. Yeppers, summer has left
the building. Wintertime is slowly coming this way 🙂
There hasn’t been much that has changed up this
way in the Pearce’s Place. Judy, Benny and I still
enjoy the days and nights together. We’re still doing
all of our Farm Town farms on Facebook hehehe.
Hey, it might be silly to you, but we enjoy it. We
love to wrestle with Benny also. He loves to play 🙂
I thank God for being blessed with so much love.
Things might go wrong, but God is always there
with His Love and all that He gives. We are all
human, so yes, we will have problems from time
to time, but God through His Son Jesus is with
us to help us through the problems. He expects
us though to do our part. God won’t do for us
what He knows that we can do for ourselves and
yes many will get sick and die, but that’s not the
end, but the beginning of a wondrous existence.
Our days on Earth in these bodies are numbered
and when it’s time to go, it’s time to go, no matter
how old or young you may be. Let God and love
fulfill your life as long as you live and breathe and
surely Heaven will have a place for you to reside.
Ok so it’s time for me to cease my rambling and
go back through all that I’ve written to see if I
can find a good word or phrase that might work
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 on a good title. hehehe now I’ve
gotta see if I haven’t already used it for one of
my previous poems LOL. It gets harder every
day being I’ve written well over 7000 poems 🙂
Yes, I write a lot hehehe. It keeps me busy or
so many might think hehehehe. Ok so I haven’t
used this title yet, so here ya go….

A Wondrous Existence

Many times values
of yesterdays things
might just turn into
some nightmarish dreams.
A wondrous existence
can be everyday
if you keep value
to kneel down and pray.
Yes a little prayer
to God up above
can make more wondrous
your heart full of love.
So many people
will seek for resistance
that’s found through Jesus
a wondrous existence.
Life might be troubled
with many a view,
but prayers to Jesus
will carry you through.

Sept 23, 2012

There ya go hehehe! I hope that came our right.
I never have a clue of what I’m going to write or
anything. It’s something I’ve done for decades 🙂
God somehow works using me and my abilities
that He gave me. Well, I hope you enjoyed all
of my rambling. There ain’t much else to tell
you except what I tell ya every week and that is
I wrote some more poems and haiku hehehehehe.
Yes I wrote them all today just before I started
writing this 🙂 So yeppers, there are 10 more
poems with 2 of them being Christmas poems.
Also once again I wrote 22 haiku for all of the
haiku lovers out there. LOL yes that includes
you Scott R. hehehe. So I reckon it’s time for
me to be searching for that blasted off switch,
but not before I wish you a most blessed and
wondrous existence all throughout the week.
Now to find that off switch. Ahah, found it
hiding behind my aspirin bottle hehehehe. It
must of had a headache or something LOL.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Southern Skies

In my memories
I can find
southern skies
within my mind.
Seasons changing
spring to fall
then through winter
I recall.
Southern skies
of long ago
had not much of
fallen snow,
Yet the summers
there and then
are of those
where many swim.
Swimming in the
waters found
to get off
the hottest ground.
Southern skies
of setting sun
are remembered
having fun.

Hidden Scenes

Views we’ve daily
passed right by
leave so many
wondering why.
Things of beauty
hidden scenes
are so many
wanted dreams.
So when driving
stop to view
hidden scenes
of thereunto.
Let not hurry
lose your sight
in the daytime
and at night.
Hidden scenes
are all around
just awaiting
to be found.

Sept 23, 2012

The Past Has Passed

The past has passed
and now is here
so let lose of
yesteryear.
Don’t let heartaches
yesterday
make right now
three shades of gray.
Let God help you
find some peace
letting heartache
then to cease.
Things we’ve done
or had done to
should not live in
every view.
Learn the lessons
then move on
for that time
is dead and gone.

Winters Way

The days are fastly
changing tune
as winters way
is coming soon.
Scenes around me
now from old
are most surely
getting cold.
While winters way
is coming in
it relieves
the summers wind.
The stage is set
for days to come
with winters way
each morning sun.
Soon the snowflakes
will be seen
covering up
a rushing stream
and the valleys
there and to
will have snow so
white and new.
Fluffy scenes
with every trail
winters way
will have set sail.

Closer To Christmas

Within the shadows
of yesterdays mind
I can remember
a wonderful time.
Closer to Christmas
brings me the sights
as I remember
all that delights.
Scenes then of beauty
found everywhere
closer to Christmas
displays in the air.
Each wondrous fragrance
that Christmas bestows
is heighten greatly
as wintertime snows.
Seasonal memories
become as our glance
as some mistletoe
brings ones romance.
Wonderful moments
of sweet Christmastime
live as an echo
inside of my mind.

Within Our Worry

When we are worried
and cannot see true
what we are needing
or then which to do,
we need to let Jesus
give answers with peace
and let our worries
to then sort of cease.
Of course we will worry
with our humanity,
but we can ease up
with Jesus for free.
He is there for us
each day of our lives
within our worry
when timeless survives.
Let Him to help you
in troublesome flurry,
because He can ease us then
within our worry.

Some Call It Xmas

Some call it Xmas
this day in December,
but it is Christmas
I’ll always remember.
Christmas for Christ
is surely the reason
not at all Xmas
this wondrous season.
Why in the world
would anyone say
Xmas for Christmas
that wonderful day?
Christmastimes blessings
come unto me
as that of glimmers
from my history.
I remember Christmas
with me, mom and dad
singing so greatly
for all that we had.
Christmas light looking
as we drove around
seeing the scenes then
all over town.
Some call it Xmas,
but to me it is not.
It is still Christmas
that I love a lot.

Tomorrows Jumbles

Trivial times

Let not tomorrow

with only made up

Many Temptations

Inside of our minds
are thoughts many dreams
leading us often
to troublesome streams.
Many temptations
will take us away
and leave us staring
at one yesterday.
Also temptations
will lead us down roads
filled up with troubles
in life’s heavy loads.

for they will often

A Simple Stone

Within a river
is a stone
lying there
and all alone.
A simple stone
of waters words
watching all
the fluttered birds.
There beside
the river wide

It feels joy
in days that pass
as the waters
move so fast.
A simple stone
might surely be
how ones view
both you and me.

Haiku
for Sept 23, 2012

Windows of today
might be flavored with heartache
left from yesterday.

Favoring what’s wrong
can make some bad conclusions
of what that is right.

Today is a shadow
of what yesterday displayed,
but it can be changed.

So many answers
can confuse to questioner.
Make sure that you’re clear.

Time can become stale
if there are no actions made.
Don’t become stagnate.

Within the seasons
lies chances for a revival
of your heart and mind.

Various problems
come as assorted moments
we may have needed.

Misguided people
become tomorrows troubles
if their not set straight.

So many blessings
are hidden in the woodwork,
but God sees them all.

Morning brings sunshine
along with chances to choose
a different path.

Life is a journey
that many find too bumpy,
but may be needed.

A train off the tracks
leads a wavering pathway
that’s without structure.

A glance at today
might not see what’s truly there.
Take the time to look.

Egotistic souls
could find themselves all alone
if they’re not careful.

Scenes in a snowfall
will maybe grow into blessings
right there in your sight.

Time is a rhythm
that is counted by many
as then through today.

When making mistakes
there are lessons you can learn
if you are watching.

Simplistic value
gives peace a definition
of lesser of stress.

A four wheeler ride
leaves dusty trails to follow
with some memories.

Believing in Ghost
needs a truly opened mind
of what that exists.

Some tears may seem sad,
but they cleanse the heart and mind.
Healing will begin.

Braving a action
that could possibly kill you,
could be stupidity.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

OK, so here I am once again writing all of my poems
and haiku the same day as the journal LOL. I guess
it’s my new way hehehe. 🙂 I may go back to writing
the poems and all again on Friday or Saturday one
day, but for now, this will work hehehe. So anyway,
how have ya been? We’ve been enjoying some much
cooler days and nights. Today’s high was supposed to
be 59F but right now it’s 60F, but that ain’t to bad 🙂
I reckon it’ll be getting cool again tonight. It’s great
snuggling weather. The sun is shining bright and there
is a little bit of a breeze blowing. Benny just got done
eating and is now lying in his little doggie bed in the
floor right beside me. We found out that one of the
reasons he would always try to dump his food in the
floor to eat it, was because he’s got claustrophobia
and doesn’t like sticking his head in a bowl to eat, so
we started putting his food in a big aluminum pan 🙂
He eats all his food now. He is so silly, but we love
him. Well onto another topic. I got the new cooling
fan I ordered in the mail Thursday, but they sent me
the wrong one, so I’ve gotta send it back for a refund.
The mechanic that is going to do the work found me
one for 25 dollars less, so he said as soon as he gets
it, he’ll give me a call to come up so he can install it.
Until then, I’ve gotta fill the radiator every time we
head to Houlton so that we can make it there and to
without the motor over heating. Thank God it’s not
as warm as it is way down south of us or we would
not be able to make it to the grocery store hehehe.
We’ll survive! Judy and I have started back playing
our Big Fish hidden object games. Yes, we’re still
playing with our Farm Town farms on Facebook :),
but we do them real late at night. Ain’t we exciting!
Yeppers, we do it all hehehehe. We are though
planning on making a trip down south to Cutler
Maine sometime later this month or early October
to take some pictures of fall colors. Judy’s oldest
daughter Mandy is getting legally married on the
6th of October. Just 4 days after Mine and Judy’s
anniversary. Mandy and Tom have been together
for 14 years and in my book they are very married,
but they decided to get married and all. They’re
good kids. OK, so they ain’t kids no more hehehe.
October 2 will be our 11 year anniversary. Who’d
of ever thunk it hehehe! She’s put up with me with
all of my weird ways and still loves me hehehehehe.
We haven’t decided what we’re going to do for
our anniversary yet though. We’ve still got time
to think 🙂 God has taken real good care of us
and I’m sure He will continue. Judy and I can see
the footprints of Jesus as He walks with us in our
daily lives. God has blessed us greatly. Our little
Benny was a wonderful blessing. He has filled
that spot in our lives that was empty. Let God
come into your life and fill you with joy. Of course
you’ll have struggles, but with Jesus, you will
make it. Now I think it’s about time for me to be
heading back through all that I’ve 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 found a good title. Now let’s see what
I can do with it hehehe… Bear with me 🙂

A Wonderful Blessing

There’s life in an echo
of days long ago
a wonderful blessing
that God did bestow.
A wonderful moment
where blessings reside
found in a heartbeat
of love deep inside.
A wonderful blessing
lives in every day
found in the minutes
that may not display.
Often our blessings
are hidden from view
awaiting the right time
for me and you.
Yet all the blessings
from our time to time
can be the echoes
of yesterdays mind.

OK so there ya go! I hope that made at least a little
bit of sense to ya. Just as I finished the poem I felt a
certain little pooch licking my heel hehehe. I hurt my
heel the other day and I guess he’s trying to make it
better 🙂 He’s back in his little doggie bed now. Yep,
he’s our little boy 🙂 Judy’s behind me browsing the
internet. There isn’t much that goes on around here.
Hehehehe we can’t wait for next Friday to get here.
Wipeout is back on for another season. We love
to watch that game show. Also we love to watch
American Ninja amongst tons of other programs
that include Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures etc.
Ok before I try to wind this up, a friend of mine
called me the other day asking me to ask all of
you to pray for her. She’s having troubles with
addiction to meds as well as many other problems.
Please put in a prayer for her. Her name is Sara.
Ok, so with that said, I guess it’s time for me to
be searching for that old off switch that just loves
to play hide and seek, 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 hiding behind the salt shaker
that never made it back in the kitchen hehehehe.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

P.S. Oh yea hehehe one of the poems is
sort of Christmassy and another is just a
little silly poem about Buttered Toast LOL.
ENJOY 🙂

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

So Many Storms

Found in a viewpoint
many might find
scenes then remembered
moments of time.
So many storms
might find surely so
only the moments
filled full of woe.
Yet many storms
are needed to be
giving the lessons
for many to see.
So many storms
can be just a phase
while growing up
in our yesterdays.
Often the storms
of yesterdays time
are of so many
to change our design.

Winter’s Beginnings

Time marches on
with decades to feel
scenes we remember
time can’t conceal.
Winter’s beginnings
comes into sight
found in the weather
of day and night.
Scenes are arranging
times to and fro
then with the winter
the coming of snow.
Winter’s beginnings
come in so cold
as we remember
stories we’ve told.
Thinking of stages
each day has shown
winter’s beginnings
of which we’ve known.

Now A Blessing

Troubles come
with steps we take
some with echoes
that we make.
Many blessings
will begin
as remembered
now and then.
Points of heartache
then and there
now a blessing
will repair.
Love from Jesus
found and held
will be answers
then compelled.
Now a blessing
can be found
as a lesson
to astound.

Closed Minds

Without choices
yet to choose
we don’t pick
to win or lose.
With closed minds
of history
we will never
be set free.
Not accepting
what that’s true
will just show
a bitter hue.
If denying
is your way
then you’ll never
be OK.
Let the truthful
live and breath
as you find
how to believe.

A Writing Pen

Words may flourish
onto lines
that remind us
of some times.
A writing pen
of words desires
might just show
some troubled fires.
All of the words
of now and then
might be exposed
by a writing pen.
The happy times
of which we’ve done
a writing pen
might show not fun.
The truth of words
remembered scenes
might be nightmares
not just dreams.
Let the pen write
words to find
truth within
a better time.
Scenes as changes
in our views
as we dawn
some better shoes.

Images

Today’s a porthole
to tonight
with its wonders
in my sight.
It’s images
of pages turned
bring to me
what’s now discerned.
The images
of birds and bees
and the sight of
lakes and seas
bring to me
a wondrous phase
found within
some better days.
Today’s beginnings
leave a taste
that we need not
ever waste.
The images
that now exposes
could be that of
fragrant roses.
There’s an image
sent from God
now awaiting
your applaud.
Let not images
be just sad
pouting over
all you’ve had.
Find the goodness
of today
in the images

So Many Hearts

When Christmas begins
it seems to display
all that’s remembered
on some other day.
So many hearts
find emptiness there
as they’re just saying
that life isn’t fair.
Sure there are problems
daily to find,
but there are also
blessings divine.
So many hearts
let life pass them by
as they continue on
until they die.
Look for the blessings
that Christmas imparts
and then share it
with so many hearts.

Buttered Toast

Breakfast in morning
and also at night
sweet buttered toast is
such a delight.
Maybe with jelly
or maybe just plain
times butter toast
is time and again.
It is so simple
so often to make
and it is hardly
no time to take.
Sweet buttered toast
so quickly to do
fills up my tummy
until it goes through.
Then when it’s over
I may make some more
because buttered toast
I surely adore.

Yesterdays Dream

Today is today
and yesterday’s gone
as all the wheels
of life move along.
Yesterdays dream
might not be found
now and today
when time goes around.
Left over wishes
of yesterdays views
might be the changes
seen in the news.
Time will continue
just moving along
as we will see then
another dawn.
Things will just maybe
rush as a stream
flowing as needed
yesterdays dream.

Haiku
for Sept 16, 2012

Sunshine will begin
as the night fades from our view
and dawn is beheld.

Placing a heartache
where hope is needing to be
will lose your chances.

Yesterdays baggage
needs not to continue on.
Let Jesus change you.

Windows of today
show many flowers growing
without aroma.

Moving in circles
guarantees you to return
with the same mistakes.

When pushing up hill
life might seem too burdening,
but down hill will come.

Learning our lessons
might come at a real high price
if we don’t listen.

Numerous meadows
exist in our memories
of times long ago.

Clinging to problems
and not seeking the answers
can destroy your mind.

Summer’s dispersing
leaving only a few signs
of it’s aftermath.

Simplistic journeys
begin as just a few thoughts
within our own sight.

Death is not the end
but the beginning of life
without our bodies.

Weakness is a stage
that will envelop many
with the ups and downs.

Making a shadow
needs not for any thinking,
but just a moment.

Wintertime ready
means you have prepared for it,
but not completely.

Various people
find themselves always alone
while amongst many.

Mid morning shadows
leave their trails upon the day
that soon dissipate.

Angers emotions
come in many containers.
Sometimes dynamite.

Plans for tomorrow
might be disrupted by things
out of our control.

Ignoring someone
might hurt you worse in the end,
so learn to forgive.

The leaves will soon fall
as summertime steps aside
allowing autumn.

Lingering heartbeats
might cause you to pause today
and lose track of time.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

I hope you’ve had a good weekend. I’m not feeling
too well right now. Dizzy and my left hand is hurting,
but I will try and get this written. The weather has
been rather nice lately. LOL last night a storm came
through and we didn’t know that it was raining until
Judy went into the kitchen for something and noticed
it was raining in the living room. She quickly shut all
of the windows then came in here and said hehehehe
the carpet is a tad wet, but it’s not Benny’s fault LOL.
It’s so weird how the wind can fool you being it wasn’t
raining in the computer rooms windows. They face
the opposite direction as the living room windows hehe.
The living room has one window facing the other way
and it wasn’t raining in that window either hehehehe.
It didn’t rain in too much. Just enough to get all of
the things on the table beside the window wet as all
get out as well as the carpet a tad damp. It’ll all dry.
Benny’s in a good mood right now. I can hear him and
his jingly collar running all throughout the house LOL.
Judy must be playing with him in there 🙂 I took me a
couple of aspirin a bit ago and my hand and all seems
to be getting better. My eyesight I’m sure is due to
my lack of sleep and my potassium level being low
as usual LOL. Benny was barking just a minute ago
in the bedroom. Judy and I went in there and he was
on the bed just dancing around wanting to play hehe.
Judy’s in there now playing with him so I can finish
this freaking journal LOL. So you wonder why I
have started writing all of my poems and haiku the
same day as the journal huh. One word BENNY 🙂
It’s 62F degrees right now at 5:30 PM and supposed
to get down to 48F degrees tonight. Last night was
a tad chilly, but not too bad. Yeppers, it looks like
summertime is over with up here. Fall is soon to be
on our doorsteps. Hehe hopefully it’s not me falling
off our doorsteps due to ice LOL. We’ve got more
problems with our car. The fan that cools the motor
quit working. We got the headlights fixed. I ordered
a new radiator cooling fan and should get it some
time this week. Then I’m going to have it installed.
That should get us back up and running. Sheesh,
if it weren’t for bad luck, we’d have no luck at all.
Oh well, our car is old and for the most part still a
good one. All cars even new ones have their share
of car problems. Life goes on. God’s taken good
care of us and I’m sure He will never cease. We’ve
had our share of problems, but nothing we cannot
handle. God has always made sure of that. When
it was beyond our ability, He has sent us an angel
to carry us through. If you’re feeling sadness with
a moment of time, take time for a little talk with
Jesus and let Him fill you with peace. I’m sure it
will still for the moment feel stressful, but in time
it will all pass. Right now is but only a moment in
time. Let God help you with each stepping stone
that life throws your way. Now, I believe it’s time
for me to be heading back through all that I’ve
written here to see if I can find a good word or
phrase that might work well for the brand new
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 believe I might
have found a good title, but we shall see hehehe.
Here goes nothing hehehe maybe so too LOL!

Carry Us Through

Sometimes our troubles
might seem way too grand
and that’s when we need
God’s Helping Hand.
He sent us Jesus
to help us through prayer
to carry us through those
times not so fair.
When your with worry
and life seems too bad
let Jesus help you
to not be so sad.
Let not your echoes
that yesterdays show
become the viewpoints
of all that you know.
Timelessly journeys
of then thereunto
need us to let God
carry us through.

Ok so now I’m just feeling tired, so after I finish this
I may go and try to rest for a bit. In any sense, I’ve
almost finished writing hehehehehe. Well, Benny is
lying in his little bed in the floor beside me. I guess
he got tuckered out after he played and finished his
food. He ate all of his food and I guess it made him
sleepy. He might come and lay down with me when
I go to bed in a short. He does like to nap with dad 🙂
Well it’s 61F degrees now at 6:08 PM. It’s getting
cooler. So I reckon it’s time for me to be telling ya
what ya should already know hehehehe and that is
I wrote 10 more poems and once again 2 of them
are a little Christmassy. Also, I wrote 22 more
haiku for the haiku lovers out there. I hope you’ve
found peace in something I’ve written through my
rambling or poetry. Now I think it’s about time
for me to be searching for that off switch that loves
to try to hide from me, 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. Hahaha found ya. Hiding in Benny’s
water bowl didn’t save ya huh hehehehehehe.
Kind of wet but Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

P.S. The last poem is one I wrote about Benny 🙂

Seasons Morn

Now as windows
show their sight
I see changes
day and night.
Seasons morn
is found to say
welcome to
a brand new day.
Wondrous scenes
of works of art
bring to me
a special part.
Painted with
a lot of love
that has come
from God above.
Each day brings
a new reborn
with the sight of
seasons morn.

Moments Shadows

Seen as mocking
all we do
moments shadows
say what’s true.
Without words
they speak so clear
things ones see
but never hear.
Moments shadows
might be found
as our footsteps
on the ground.
They might even
seem to go
in a seasons
white as snow.
Moments shadows
might just dance
in the minutes
moments glance

Now In Time

Counting seconds
grapes to wine
finds ones waiting
now in time.
People walking
there and to
now in time
will show a view.
Moments past
of yesterdays
now in time
might seem amaze.
It’s our future
made each day
now in time
of every way.
So let better
times proceed
giving all we
truly need.

Winters Beginnings

Now as the summertime
falls from our view
winters beginnings
start so anew.
Yet there’s a season
that must then begin
before dear wintertime
can enter in.
Fall and its glory
of changing of leaves
gives winters threshold
wonders to weave.
Morning is started
with such a great sight
winters beginnings
of snow oh so white.
As a great story
that’s read from a book
winters beginnings
cannot be mistook.

Under The Stars

During the nighttime
scenes come alive
paintings above me
that seem to thrive.
The moon gives shadows
seen in the trees
with every movement
found in the leaves.
While looking around
in darkness of night
under the stars
exposes a sight.
Scenes so transfixing
that twinkle and shine
give me a blessing
that’s oh so divine.
Even the essence
of Venus and Mars
gives me a smile
up under the stars.

Christmas So Soon

Jingly moments
come into tune
with the sight of
Christmas so soon.
Many decorations
found within sight
are seen twinkling
during the night.
Then on a night drive
found on the way
you might just see
a Jesus display.
A manger scene lit
for others to see
showing God’s blessings
to you and me.
Christmas so soon
will be found in frame
filled up with blessings
of Jesus’ Name.

In But A Way

Today brings choices
for us to choose
some maybe winning
some maybe lose.
Sometimes might show
a pathway of time
that seems to curve
like a circular line.
Yet often choices
give us a lesson
filled up with goodness
or a transgression.
Use all the lessons
found daily to see
as a much better
way you’re to be.
Times might be found then
in but a way
lessons concurring
a much better day.

Heartfelt Scenes

Christmastime’s hue
is found as a day
that many often
just look away.
So many people
will just move along
as they have always
dusk unto dawn.
Heartfelt scenes
of seasons delight
are what that many
just see in the night.
Take a good look
and see what is true
found in the essence
of Christmastimes view.
Look beyond vision
and see with your heart
the heartfelt scenes
of Christmastimes art.
Painted so wondrously
ticking of time
Christmastimes wonders
are God’s Own design.

Visions of White

I find I’m dreaming
of such a sight
found as my blessings
visions of white.
Dreaming of snowflakes
that seem to fly
falling so gracefully
down from the sky.
Visions of hillsides
painted so sweet
that my eyes hunger
to sort of eat.
I find I’m dreaming
of every day
white as a blessing
I kneel and pray.
My visions of white
will soon come in place
as some sweet snowflakes
fall on my face.

Benny’s Journey

He is our dog
our little boy
each day filling
us with joy.
Benny’s journey
had begun
far away
Missouri’s sun.
Then his picture
caught our eye
seeking time
for us to buy.
Benny’s journey
found a place
here and now
and face to face.
Month’s have passed
with day to day
as we’ve found
his loving way.
Many smiles
he’s brought so sweet
as we hear
his tiny feet.
Running playing
fluffy white
he gives smiles
each day and night.
He is our dog
our little boy
each day filling
us with joy.

Haiku
for Sept 9, 2012

Times might bring you fear,
but there is growth within it
if you allow it.

Storms of summertime
bring rains to cool off the days
and waters to flow.

Seeds of a flower
often float into the air
seeking a new home.

Patience gives hopeful,
but just being flat lazy
gives you no reward.

Beyond a second
lies a moment of minutes
that many don’t see.

Allowing liars
to continue their footsteps
makes their lies to grow.

The marks of shadows
are left as our memories
we might need rethink.

The flight of a bird
shows us the days magnificence
found within the sky.

Lessons are pages
written in our book of life.
Learn how to read them.

Today’s a fragrance
that comes from many places
that tell where you are.

With many dewdrops
a flower is then watered
so to bring beauty.

Every time and place
has a reason for being.
Some are stepping stones.

Wintertime’s windows
might seem to be rather cold,
but there is much more.

Reviving a time
might conclude as a bad thing
if it is not right.

Living under shadows
might cause you to feel less than,
so just be yourself.

Preparing yourself
might need you with away time
so to find answers.

A moments snowflake
might fall as just a whisper,
but build as a mound.

Disillusioned sight
brings us many broken dreams,
so look with clear eyes.

Shimmering sunsets
welcome the nightfall to come
with scenes of beauty.

Painting a threshold
with some unlikely colors
does not change within.

Takers and givers
live in the same existence.
They need each other.

Gliding on a breeze
as a bird will sometimes do
gives it chance to rest.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

Yeppers it’s that time again. I hope you’ve had a great
Labor day weekend. Judy and I have been just being
lazy hehehehe. It’s a beautiful day today with a high of
70F degrees. Right now it’s 63F degrees at 4 o’clock
in the afternoon. I don’t think it will make it to 70F 🙂
Benny’s laying down here beside me in his little doggy
bed. Judy and I went out to eat Friday for my birthday.
I had an all you can eat Haddock and Judy had baby
back ribs LOL. Friday at the Brookside Inn restaurant
is an fish fry all you can eat. I think my birthday present
was 10 extra pounds. Naw I doubt I gained any weight
at all hehehe and I won’t explain why. Just two words,
(No Colon). After we got through eating, I drove us
down the road a bit so I could take a few pictures to
put in my stationary. Our dear little Mazda is going
to have to go into the shop this week or thereabouts
to have the headlights fixed. It seems that the switch
must have shorted out that turns them on and off.
Oh well, at least the parking lights, break lights and
the blinkers still work. None the less, I hope and
pray that fixing our headlights don’t cost too much.
We’re on fixed income. Oh well, I’m sure God will
take care of us as He has always. For today, Judy
and I are just going to relax and maybe watch a little
TV and mess around with Facebook and all of our
Farm Town farms hehehe. Not much changes here
at the Pearce’s Place. We do though spend a lot of
time playing with Benny. I’ve trimmed his hair maybe
for the last time this year. Wintertime is coming and
he’ll need that extra hair to stay warm when he’s out
playing in the snow. Yes, Benny loves to play in the
snow. He’s like dad (me) in that manner hehehehe.
I love to take pictures of the scenery that the snow
makes brighter. Judy also loves to take pictures
of the snowy creations that God gives us to view.
I always yearn for the sight of the first snowflakes.
It’s such a beautiful sight as it paints the hillsides
and valleys all white with the glistening of trees.
Only God can make that painting come to life.
Well, I guess it’s about time for me to be taking
my little trip back through all that I’ve 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 little place of my
recollection that I like to call RECOLLECT
VILLE. I believe I may have stumbled on a good
title, but the proof is in the pudding or the ice
cream or something hehehe. Well, here goes!

Come To Life

Scenes all around us
might come into view
if we will take time
to see what is new.
They’ll come to life
so greatly displayed
that we might find then
ourselves so amazed.
Look at the beauty
of the sky and the ground
as things come to life
in all there around.
Let not your sadness
to hide them away
all of God’s beauty
of every fine day.
Things come to life
as tree leaves will blow
and then in winter
the whitest of snow.
Look for the beauty
that God has displayed
given so freely
and Heavenly made.

I hope you enjoyed my rambling and it gave you some
peace. Also I hope you liked the poem. I’m never sure
that my words will make any sense to anybody else but
me. Judy and I ate croissants for breakfast just a bit
ago after I finished writing my poems and haiku. Yes,
I once again wrote all of the freaking poems and haiku
today LOL. Hehehe Friday, I was enjoying relaxing for
my birthday after of course I ate TWO haddock. So
I wasn’t going to write then and yesterday I spent most
of my time playing with Benny, doing Farm Town and
watch TV with Judy. Oh well, they all got written 🙂
I guess it’s time for me to be telling ya what you should
already know hehehe and that is I wrote 10 more poems
with 2 of them being sort of Christmassy hehehehehe.
Also yes I once again wrote 22 haiku for all the haiku
lovers out there. I hope you enjoy them. I believe it’s
getting to be that time to where I need to be searching
for that old off switch that loves playing hide and seek,
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. Hmmmm, where can
that ornery thing be hiding today? I see ya you silly
thang. The curtains are transparent in a way ya
know hehehehe. Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Tempered Glass

Times we’ve struggled
seeing clear
now are in our
yesteryear.
The tempered glass
that we’ve looked through
give us now
a better view.
Signs of times
through yesterdays
show us many
different ways.
As tempered glass
is made so strong
now and then
shows right from wrong.
So if you’re looking
at your past
find the lessons
tempered glass.

Falling Down

Step by step
we might be found
seen so foolish
falling down.
Yet those errors
of our ways
give us lessons
better days.
Falling down
might really hurt
as you end up
in the dirt,
yet some lessons
will fall through
telling what
you’re not to do.
Let those lessons
that you’ve found
be as teachers
falling down.
Sometimes pain
is really needed
to make lessons
truly seeded.

Making The Grade

While walking forwards
many stumble
and they stop and
sit and grumble.
Making the grade
may not show
in your life
of to and fro.
Often our ventures
will be seen
with what many
think a dream.
Yet it’s not what
others think,
that you should be
seeking drink.
It’s the verdict
that is laid
that your grade has
surely made.

Getting Cold

The weather’s changing
stories told
seasons showing
getting cold.
The winters windows
are now found
as the cold winds
blow around.
Scenes now blossom
that are seen
some as pages
of a dream.
It’s getting colder
every day
with the clouds of
winters gray.
Snow will soon be
falling down
when the winter’s
surely found.
Then the days of
then and old
will be glimmers
getting cold.

Pointless Dreams

Sometimes we might
seem to dream
about what might just
cause a scream.
Pointless dreams
of when and where
might be found
without a prayer.
Let your dreams to
live and breathe
as a fragrance
you believe.
Then let those times
thrive inside
when some troubled
times abide.
Yet don’t let those
pointless dreams
become troubles
rushing streams.
Yes some pointless
dreams of time
can make larger
Hells design.

Seasonal Echoes

Now as the seasons
come shining through
days are concluding
another times view.
Seasonal echoes
of now unto then
display the pages
that times do begin.
Seasonal changes
now bring forth a stage
written with sometimes
the snowflakes of age.
Wintertime’s doorway
opens real wide
letting in Christmas
with snowflakes inside.
Seasonal echoes
of times long before
now are found knocking
upon today’s door.

Soon Will Be

Soon what’s ventured
will imprint
things to do
from where you went.
Soon will be
a better sight
found from moments
wrong and right.
It’s the lessons
that might phase
leaving saddened
future days.
Yet those lessons
can be seen
leading to a
better dream.
Soon will be
a choice to choose
what to win
or what to lose.
Let God help you
choose today
as you kneel down
then to pray.

Beyond Christmas

Often so many
will just move along
and forget Christmastime
when it is gone.
Leaving their blessings
just sitting so sad
on beyond Christmas
of all that they had.
Look for the moments
that Christmas bestows
and let them live on
as not just your woes.
See how that Jesus Christ
came forth for you
so to give blessings
of Christmastime true.
So beyond Christmas
let not every sight
lose all the feelings
of Christmas delight.

Counting Time

Certain minutes
may be hurried
with the minutes
that we worried.
Counting time
from dusk to dawn
leaves so many
moving on.
Finding fragments
in the days
that might seem to
be a haze.
Counting time
might just conclude
that you’re in
a worried mood.
Let your worries
be replaced
counting time
that’s better faced.
Find a smile
through all your sight
and then find
some sleep at night.

Many Might Find

The doors of time
that we expose
might be found
with bitter woes.
Many might find
the days ahead
filled with all
that’s done and said.
Let the past to
rest in place
and then seek a
different face.
Many might find
your yesterday
but in time
it’ll fade away.
Let your tomorrows
be better found
standing with Jesus
on solid ground.

Haiku
for Sept 2, 2012

Tomorrows journey
begins one step at a time
starting with today.

Tree leaves of winter
will fall loosely to the ground
after falls colors.

The windows of now
need to be cleaned day to day,
so keep a clear view.

Paving your lifestyle
can be a rough road to ride
if it’s full of rocks.

Simplicity’s found
when you deal with what that’s true
and not live a lie.

Morning is displayed
as breezes blowing briskly
with the new sunlight.

When watching people
we may not see who they are.
The outer shell lies.

Phases of winter
come as glistening snowflakes
and cold winds that blow.

Painting a picture
does not always need some paint.
Sometimes just a thought.

Times we’ve encountered
bring us many memories
we can rekindle.

When looking outside
look for the hidden pictures
that time hides away.

Times we remember
can become those smiles we need
when times are not good.

Needles in haystacks
are many nitpicking ways
that many will be.

Today’s flowers bloom
while awaiting wintertime
to cover with snow.

Chances of today
have their own sense of value.
Some better to not.

A forest of trees
may prevent you from seeing
the one that is true.

Find some solitude
in the days of your worries
and find peace in prayer.

Listen to heartbeats
as they beat their many beats.
We are all unique.

Let today’s shadows
to be the best they can be
within your footsteps.

Cages might harness
what many are afraid of,
but fear is still there.

When lies are exposed
they leave ones with a bad taste
of who that you are.

The blades of the fan
seem to whirl about thusly
bringing me a breeze.
