Each Passing Year

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

Well I have returned once again with
more of my rambling and poetry LOL.
I hope you had a great weekend.  We
didn’t do much.  I’ve been attempting
to recoup from my mowing a couple
of days ago.  It seems that with each
passing year it takes me longer to mow
being I’ve gotta stop and sit down to
rest about every 4 or 5 minutes hehehe.
Yep,  the years have caught up with me
and are wearing me down.  My birthday
is
next Saturday and I’ll be older LOL.
Ok so I’ll be 68,  but who’s counting 🙂
There are many that don’t think that
I’m as old as I am hehehe and there’s
many that think that I’m older than I
am LOL.  So,  it is what it is.  Anyways
last week we didn’t do much.  We did
though go up to Presque Isle for Judy’s
immunotherapy and then had dinner
at Governor’s Restaurant.  The car is
running like new now,  but the looks
are lacking a bit in the new LOL.  It’s
looking as though I might one day
be attempting to get started formatting
my poetry pictures to get a few more
books published.  I have now 13 books
of poems ready to be formatted LOL.
I am at the moment working on book
folder 24 🙂  Yep,  I write a lot.  I have
done over 4300 poetry pictures to date.
LOL the funny thing is I only planned
on doing a few more after books 1 and
2,  but something took me over and
I found that I enjoyed doing them :).
It makes it a bit more of an effort to
do.  I’ve written poetry most of my life,
but combining them with pictures and
all tends to give me more enjoyment :).
It’s getting harder for me as time moves
on as my hands are not always agreeing
with me on what I am trying to do LOL,
being you don’t think my poetry pictures
are preformatted do you Hahaha.  Nope,
they are not.  I have to format them and
pick the correct fonts and color and size,
and then often have to fix pictures that
were not that great with cloning  as well
as adjusting the contrast as well as ever
so often cropping portions of the pictures
only showing what I want in the pictures.
Yes it is a long winded effort which makes
me wish that at least a few of my books
would sell :).   Oh well, Que Sera, Sera 🙂
The weather has not been too bad lately.
It’s 73 degrees right now at 6:30 PM and
supposed to be a low of 59 tonight and
it shows to be in the 70’s all week other
than Wednesday and Thursday with a
highs of 68.  I do not miss the Texas
temperatures.  I’ve noticed that it will
be in the mid 90’s all week long which
I and my old body cannot survive well.
I’m just about out of things to bore you
with LOL.  As I said earlier,  we didn’t
do much last week.  Oh yea we took the
car to VIP to have the driver side front
wheel bearings replaced.  They were
making a heck of a racket.  They’re in
good shape now and the car is running
quiet as it should.  God is still watching
over us and sending angels and kindly
spirits to help us out when we’re in a
bind.  I know there are many times that
God allows things in our lives that we
may think we don’t need or we surely do
not want.  God knows what’s best for
us.  I hope and pray that you have Him
in your life.  God please watch over all
of our family and friends as well as all
of those that we know not of.  Thank
You for never wavering in Your ways.
Thank You for all that You have done
as well for all that You will do.  AMEN.
Now I do believe it’s time for me to be
reading back over all that I’ve written
here to see if I can find me a decent
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 always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE.  I think I may
have found me a decent title near the
beginning of all my rambling and now
after checking,  I see that it hasn’t been
used yet,  so used it shall be.  Here goes.

Each Passing Year

Daylight to dark
we might foresee
the fear of things
we do not agree.
The storms of life
that come in view
with things we see
and things we do.
Years might pass
and leave a stage
as us the actors
of age unto age.
Things we cannot
in our life today,
because of seconds
just ticking away.
We need to look
and find a smile
in things we did
in a younger style.
Not letting time
to bring a sad tear
for blessings live on
each passing year.

Well there ya go.  I hope you liked the
poem and maybe even a little bit of my
rambling.  Today August 25 is the day
that Judy and I met in person for the
first time.  Yep,  we met in person on
August 25 2001.  Of course we met in a
little Yahoo Poetry Egroup April 1st of
that year.  Yep, God and poetry is what
brought us together.  She lived 8 miles
from where we live now and I lived in
Greenville Texas.  We have our share
of bad days,  but most of the days are
blessings.  We’re both retired living
and breathing around one another
nearly 24 7 every day,  so yes we do
have a few arguments,  but we’ve got
love and God that helps us in those
moments.  So,  I’m out of things to
tell you other than of course what I
tell you nearly every week and that is,
I wrote some more poems and haiku.
Yeppers,  10 more poems and 22 more
haiku for all the haiku lovers out there.
I hope you can find 1 or 2 of either or
both that you like.  Now I do believe
it’s time for me to begin my search
for that hardly elusive off switch,  but
not before I wish you all a blessings
filled week.  Remember,  Jesus loves
you and we do too.  Okey dokey,  so
where can that silly ornery off switch
be trying to hide this time hehehe???
Of course we all know that it sucks at
hiding LOL.  Now that is one of the
lamest places I can think of that you
have even attempted to hide,  but me
thinks that you were not trying to hide
this time,  but wanting a treat hehehe.
Hiding amidst my 6 peppermints that
I have on my desk is sort of shameful,
being they are tiny and you stick out
like a sore thumb LOL.  At this rate
why even try hehehe.  Maybe try a
little harder
next week you silly thing.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill,  Judy,  Rocky
and spirits of Benny and Milo Pearce.

Descriptions Admired

Looking out the door
we might see a field
one like a painting
that a season revealed.
Time creates artwork
in the grasses of time
painting the pictures
for our eyes to find.
It might be a moment
of a summertime day
appearing as stories
of a blessing’s array.
A breath you breathe
can help you to see
a field full of sights
within time’s scenery.
So often the moments
that we each desired
might turn out being
descriptions admired.

Imageries

Many things we’ve seen
might only be illusion
that of which we found
as seasonal confusion.
Scenic timeless values
become as waters blue
maybe as a river flows
creating a scenic view.
The pictures of a time
awaken our memories
that have faded away
into pictured imageries.

Soon To See

Evening awakes
in the sun’s last glow
so often reflecting
in winter’s snow.
The sky’s enhanced
by evening’s sun
creating a picture
of time soon begun.
Essence of peaceful
from God above
filled with blessings
and so much love.
Picturesque scenes
in a certain style
create a moment
that seems to smile.
It’s a wondrous sight
given for free
bestowing it’s own
that is soon to see.

Yellow of Summer

Summertime’s scenery
might often display
black eye Susan’s
in a colorful array.
Seeming like the sun
gleaming in a field
the yellow of summer
is surely revealed.
There might even be
a few others there
maybe some daisies
with a summery flair.
As seasonal beacons
in fields of wonder
we might get a view
of yellow of summer.

Essence of Blue

Living in a moment
life might begin
and create shadows
of a seasonal wind.
Walking in a field
time might display
the blue of a flower
in a magical way.
Seeming as a dream
that comes in sight
life’s a wonderland
daylight and night.
Displaying seasons
for me and for you
some flowers may be
an essence of blue.

Green of Scenery

Thriving as a moment
there may be a view
that’s hiding in green
as a river of blue.
Portraying an essence
of a humble design
the green of scenery
lives on within time.
Flowing as a memory
of a beating heart
the river in the sight
gives much to impart.
Telling of a moment
that green was young
and the river lived on
as songs time sung.
Yet as times grew
it became history
the sights of colors
with green of scenery.

Lost in Leaves

When in a moment
we might be seen
so lost in leaves
it seems a dream.
Leaves with stages
of stories of old
becoming as pages
of times to behold.
Heartbeats of life
blessings of love
as miracles Divine
from God above.
We have choices
to give God praise
and not be hurtful
to better our ways.
We’re the writers
time interweaves
often in confusion
so lost in leaves.

Place and Mind

We often enter
a time of view
fixated upon
what is in you.
It may be life
a story entails
forms of times
wishing wells.
Transfixed upon
distant views
perceived as
the times infuse.
Becoming life
for time to find
as a scene of
place and mind.

Little House

In life we might
be found to see
places and faces
we don’t agree.
All that’s small
within your sight
might for others
be just right.
Our vision often
might only see
what that’s for
both you and me
A house a home
a place to thrive
might seem small
within our eyes.
Yet some others
north and south
might find peace
in a little house.

Bridging Gaps

Doorways pathways
to another place
can bring into view
what many embrace.
The hearts of dreams
expose themselves
when on the bridges
to scenic shelves.
The many memories
we lost in time
true love can bridge
and help to find.
Allow the seasons
of distant contrast
to find the doorway
while bridging Gaps.

Haiku
for Aug 24,  2024

Looking for trouble
you might find a catastrophe
that you can’t handle.

Using your heartbeat
can cause you to be a fool
so use common sense.

Journeys we’ve been on
can often get lost in time
losing the lessons.

Trivia’s senseless
if it gives no good knowledge
so don’t just seek words.

Laughing at ones
when they are in need of help
will come back on you.

Finding your footing
on a hillside of gravel
you still might fall down.

Treading upon ice
you must walk with much caution
or take chance on life.

Troubles in our life
might seem just like tornadoes,
but may be blessings.

Within life’s shadows
there might be portions of time
that live within us.

Echoes of seconds
can be heard as the heartbeats
of times we regret.

Years of relations
might be destroyed by choices
that ones don’t agree.

Sharing your blessings
can help yours to become more
if done correctly.

Taking in a breath
of a dream within a dream
you might find some peace.

Yesterday’s journeys
might reflect into today
so walk carefully.

Opinions of some
can often be very wrong
so don’t get uptight.

Raindrops of today
might water our tomorrows
and help us survive.

Think clearly of life
and do not be lead astray,
for liars exist.

Looking to the stars
you might find that it’s a dream
as you fall asleep.

The tires of a car
roll on the paths that we choose,
sort of like our feet.

Allowing anger
to fill the stride in your life
you’ll find destruction.

Stirring up a storm
can create some bad problems
that you should avoid.

Years of our choices
might become future nightmares
filled with much regret.
