ANIMAL’S GREETINGS
Hello my friends
Hello again from New Limerick
Maine.
It’s a nice day today with a high of 66 F.
Yeppers, it has already
begun cooling
down up this way. I love it. It’s not too
cold and too
hot. I know winter is on its
way. I’m always excited to see the
first
snowflakes. Though there are drawbacks
to winter such as the cost
of heating fuel
and all, but I totally love how the snow
creates artwork
out of everything it lands
on. I adore autumn/fall with all of
the
colorful leaves, but it’s such a short time
of year. It’s even
shorter than spring up
here. Of course I’m not talking about
the noticed
calendar seasons, but only
their impact on the days and weeks as
well as
months. Our winters typically
last 5 to 6 months out of the year,
but
that is not the calendar seasons so to say.
Anyways, I do have a few
things that
grind my gears about living up here and
some are the fact that
all of my friends
and family live 2000 miles south of us
and the fact that
when the snow melts
and refreezes it becomes a death trap
just waiting for
the right time to attack.
LOL, but there are downfalls to
living
anywhere. You’ve just gotta weigh the
cost to the enjoyment living
there and
find what you can live with that makes
you happiest. I am
happiest up here
even though I do have many saddened
moments being that I
have no friends up
here, Of course Judy is my friend, but
I think you
get my point. So, I look
for the beauty in all that I can see
and
photograph while I write poems of each
scene that gives me words. If
it weren’t
for poetry and photography I would
more than likely go nuts
LOL. I will
every once in a while play a little bit on
my conga drums,
but again, I have no
one to create music with. So I create
songs in my
head. Judy and I enjoy
almost all the same TV programs and
movies. That
really is a blessing, being
I don’t like to watch TV by myself and
in
most cases do not. I have been that
way for most of my life. I might
watch
a cartoon or something like Red Green
or Benny Hill, but not much
else LOL.
Yep through life while I was alone I was
always busy writing
poetry that I never
let anybody read hehehe. Most people
didn’t even know
that I wrote poetry,
but then, they knew I wrote lyrics and
that was
always hilarious to me hehehe.
You would not believe the amount of
people
that are not aware that lyrics
are the same as poetry LOL. Anyways,
off
that subject, Judy and I are doing
fine. We might take the boys out
for
a field trip tomorrow. They always love
to romp and play in the field
in front
of our house. It’s gonna take a while
for Benny to get used to
our newest set
of neighbors. He barks every time he
hears a noise and we
keep telling him
to hush, that it is just the neighbors.
All in all,
we’re still hanging in there
with the good and the bad. God has
been good
to us and I am sure we have
many angels watching over us. Thank
You God
for always keeping an eye on
us and protecting us from the evils in
life
and allowing what You know that
can be as teachers and strengtheners
in
our lives. With that said I reckon it’s
time for me to begin my
journey 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 believe I may have stumbled upon a
good title
just about halfway back in
my rambling. It might not be the best
title,
but it’s what that said write about
me LOL. So here goes…
Moments Being
Minutes travel
seconds pass
leaving glimmers
of the
past.
Moments being
such to say
passing hours
day to day.
Within
dreamers
life becomes
moments beings
beating drums.
Rhythms
playing
timeless shows
as our lifetime
then bestows.
Moments
being
set in frame
we might call them
the wrong name.
So enjoy
life
that you’re seeing
as time leaves you
moments being.

Well there ya go. Yea, I know, it’s
not
one of my best poems, but it’ll have to
do LOL. I hope you enjoyed
it none the
less and maybe even enjoyed all of my
rambling hehehe. I do
get lost time to
time in my rambling and forget what I
a talking about
LOL. Anyways, I hope
you were entertained in some degree 🙂
Judy went
over to her sister’s house for
craft night last night and she made
an
adorable plaque to hold all of the dogs
leashes and what nots. It came
out nice.
So, that’s about all I’ve got for ya other
that what I tell you
every week and that
is, I wrote some more poems and haiku.
Yeppers, 10
more poems and 1 of them
is a Christmas poem. I also wrote 22
more haiku
for all of the haiku lovers
out there. I hope you can find 1 or 2
of
either or both that you like. So now it’s
time for me to begin my
search for that
hardly elusive off switch, but not before
I wish you a
truly blessings filled week.
Remember, Jesus loves you and we do
too.
Okie dokie now, where’s that ornery
off switch hiding this time????
Looking
high and low, left and right hehehehehe.
There you are ya little
varmint. Giving
my flashlight another chance for a place
to hide huh.
Well you made it rock and
I saw ya. Learn to stay still
Hahahaha.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
God bless from Bill,
Judy, Benny, Rocky
and the spirit of Milo Pearce

Thoughts Arrive
As life displays
its certain
sights
thoughts arrive
in days and nights.
Seasons become
as a
destiny
mindful desires
within history.
Thinking thoughts
of distant
faces
from within
the distant places.
Just like a pond
with ripples
lost
moments become
as merely thoughts.
Thoughts of then
that came
to be
things we heard
both you and me.
The past has ways
of changing
views
as our eyesight’s
times infuse.
Time might laugh
at your
troubles,
but give strength
within the doubles.
So many lessons
come
and go
that might be life
to help us grow.
Just like a pond
in
rippling scale
as our thoughts
in life’s detail.
Providing ways
for
you to get by
as you remember
as thoughts arrive.

Roads We Travel
Things we see
as time
passes by
might be illusions
might be the sky.
Life as a
pattern
created as stages
roads we travel
discern the ages.
Maybe a
river
or tiny water flow
the roads of life
will then bestow.
Showing
scenes
of things to grasp
of our memoirs
seasonal past.
Roads we
travel
might become
a time of life
a summer sun.
Often as
flavors
a tasty treat
traveled upon
with car or feet.
They may be
tar
or may be gravel
many pathways
roads we travel.

Mowing Through Life
Within life and
times
there comes a view
that might need help
from me and you.
Just
like a mower
to shorten the pain
our life often needs
some help to
gain.
Mowing through life
on a old lawn mower
might show signs
of
pathways in store.
Grass that’s higher
needing mowed down
as times we
recall
we had just a frown.
Joined in with weeds
hidden in the
grass
as pages are turned
from future to past.
Mow down the
sadness
and create a smile
as life moves onwards
mile after
mile.
Look for the blessings
look for the good
that is often as
grasses
just misunderstood.
Look out in a field
and find you a
view
mowing through life
to a time brand new.

Now Returns
The past has ways
of
changing views
greens of grass
and skies of blues.
Now might seem
as
just a time
a place within
a moment’s mind.
The seasons bring
new
sights to see
as now and then
with you and me.
We might even
see
such a sight
as a stormy day
that joins a night.
Old perspectives
on
a house of then
might awaken
a thought within.
A real old
house
might show a sign
of life from then
of another time.
It might
now show
how life discerns
as we look on
and now returns.

Enlightenment
Open your eyes
and
see the views
the scenes of life
that times infuse.
Find the
colors
painted so well
as enlightenment
a story to tell.
Lose the
negativity
in a positive note
find the best way
to float your
boat.
Allow for colors
of seasonal style
to for a moment
give you a
smile.
Within discrepant
conflicting minds
so many develop
losing
designs.
So be enlightened
of fiction or truth
find what’s
factual
and not just couth.
Be as enlightened
as you can be
finding
what’s true
in all that you see.
Even what’s hidden
as invisible
scenes
can be the spirits
of so many things.
Let
enlightenment
become your view
seeing what’s false
seeing what’s
true.
Allow for lessons
of fails to become
as enlightenment
a new
day begun.

Time is a Story
Life that of water
flowing in the blue
becomes as a
story
that ones see in you.
Maybe as you ripple
in what that you
say
time becomes echoes
in you day after day.
Many may anger
you
creating some scenes
as your waters rush
into living
streams.
Time creates artwork
painted as we move
while deep within
us
leaves quite a groove.
Need is the inspirer
that brings into
place
time as perspective
as heartbeats enlace.
Scented of a
dream
textured of a time
moments might seem
as rhythm or
rhyme.
Beating as a journal
words written down
time becomes a
path
to a smile or a frown.
For as our emotions
are as that in a
dory
we can find hopeful
for time is a story.

Lost in Thought
Patience is
seconds
turned into hours
as time goes finding
all that
empowers.
Thoughts of a day,
of a time or place
lost in a
whirlwind
you try to embrace.
Autumn’s beginnings
and endings
alike
tend to lose many
as time takes a hike.
Sometimes the
leaves
of an autumn flair
leave ones dreaming
of a silent
prayer.
One they wanted
to surely come true
when lost in thought
of
a better view.
We each seek places
and faces of peace
within our own
way
of a daily release.
Hearts begin racing
as want does
arrive
replacing our needs
with a colorful drive.
Then as we find
all
that can’t be bought
we might just find
we’re lost in
thought.

Snowy Haze
Time is
a season
and life is a quest
as Christmas snow
is the very best.
A
season of white
becomes the view
as a snowy haze
and glorious
hue.
Imagine the times
the scenes became
as a snowy haze
for times
to attain.
Brought so alive
within our minds
a snowy haze’s
awesome
designs.
Snowflakes falling
landing all around
creating a haze
with
nary a sound.
Yet if you listen
closely to the wind
you may just
hear
a time transcend.
Scenes with words
floating in the
sky
snowflakes falling
with winter’s reply.
With a snowy haze
there
is much more
a season of style
like times before.
Just like
artwork
the season begins
drawing in the sky
with whitish pens.
Hold
the moments
inside of your gaze
of a Christmastime
and a snowy
haze.

Beach Lodge
In an
ocean of time
faraway in the past
there is a memory
a shadow we
cast.
Places remembered
as time moves on
now as a rhythm
seeming as
a song.
We heard the waves
that spoke so clear
in the Beach Lodge
of
yesteryear.
We took pictures
to put in a frame
a time to
remember
that life did attain.
We saw from afar
so many
things
horses on the beach
and other scenes.
Now it’s so distant
a
day faraway
as time moved on
to a different day.
The food that we
ate
was the best of all
burgers so good
they did so enthrall.
My
wife and I hope
to once again arrive
right by the beach
on a heartfelt
drive.
We each have times
that come and go
leaving us things
we used
to know.
Times that seemed
to duck and dodge
maybe just like the
old
Beach Lodge.

Wheels Roll On
Thoughts are rolling
becoming views
as life displays
the
daily news.
Blue skies above us
can be a dream
just like an
ocean
or maybe a stream.
When wheels roll on
they leave a
trace
impacted upon
a wanted embrace.
With some mountains
or maybe
some hills
as life rolls on
each moment instills.
Look for the
beauty,
look for the art,
the moments we find
as a beating
heart.
Love is a doorway,
a pathway to find
as wheels roll on
with
time after time.
Allow for emotions
that a scene can give
driving
through life
while learning to live.
Look beyond sadness
of right and
wrong
and find the blessings
as wheels roll on.

Haiku
for Aug 10, 2019
With just but a
breath
a life can become a door
to open a mind.
Looking out
windows
you might notice many things
that you think you
need.
Finding memories
in the middle of the road
might have some
pot holes.
Life as a chain link
can find many links missing
as
time wears them out.
Glancing blows of life
can often knock us off
track
so be on your guard.
Living for moments
can cause us to miss
a few
due to our focus.
A flower’s journey
begins with merely a
seed
that needs time to grow.
Mowing the wet grass
only promises it
to bend
leaving many missed.
Minds in a circle
only repeat their
actions,
so step from the loop.
A leaf falling down
does not make a
single sound
until it’s rustled.
Beyond our blue sky
holds a
dreamers perspective
and also the truth.
Cannot is not fact,
for
there is often a path
that leads to a way.
Branching out for
things
needs a firm grasp on the truth
or you will wither.
Chance
is a moment
that comes and goes in our lives,
so use them
wisely.
Belief in spirits
shows you have an open mind
or may have
sensed them.
Challenges in life
come as our many struggles
that
push us forward.
A rose is beauty
that’s guarded by many thorns
the
same as people.
Tempting of a door
can often be just a sign
hanging
with a lie.
A ship that’s sinking
can only find hope to float
if
one’s bail water.
Deep within a dream
holds things we can
imagine
and maybe make real.
Life is a shadow
that begins with
sustenance
to give it meaning.
Tomorrow holds fuel
that many used
yesterday
to get strength today.
