ANIMAL’S GREETINGS
Hello my friends
I’m back
LOL. October has come to an
end and November has awakened. I hope
you
survived Halloween Mwahahaha. We
didn’t do much other that watch TV
being
we live out in the boonies and there are no
nearby kids to do trick
or treating. So we
just enjoyed the day. I of course wrote a
few more
Halloween poems hehehe. Yep,
couldn’t help my self 🙂 We had a lot
of
high winds come through here Friday and
we thought we were gonna blow
away LOL.
The house was shaking so much it made
my computer monitor rock
back and forth
as well as everything in the house hehehe,
but my computer
monitor was the most
noticed by me LOL. My roof repair held
tight. Now
for the test of winter and the
snows to follow. Speaking of snows,
it
looks as though according to my weather
programs that we might get some
snow
this week. It can bring its snowy self on.
I’m ready for it LOL.
Snow blowers are
charged and ready to be used. I love the
snow and all.
The only thing I have a few
problems with is the length of time that
it
snows LOL. Yeppers, 5-6 months of
the stuff is overkill 🙂 Anyways,
anywhere
you live there are things that are not so
great. Heat, rain,
hurricanes, tornadoes
as well as things such as fires and floods.
It’s
all about what you can find that you
can handle or the place that suits
you.
If we spend all of our time focusing only
the bad things, we tend to
overlook the
good things. I enjoy the summers that
are not the stifling
temperatures and all
that I suffered through in Texas when I
lived there.
Of course there were many
good things about living in Texas such
as we
could go swimming and we enjoyed
driving down to Port Aransas TX time
to
time, but up here there are many things
to see that inspire my
photography and
my poetry that are not in Texas. I have
seen the autumn
colors and the snow that
envelopes my heartbeat as it enhances
my poetry.
Yep, each place has its own
blessings and nightmares hehehehehe.
So,
what else is there to talk about???
Well, Judy and I are anxiously
waiting
to watch a new episode of God Friended
Me at 8 PM. If you haven’t
watched it
and would like to watch it sometime look
and find when it’s on
in your listings.
It’s on channel 8 on DISH up here, but
it might be
another channel for you 🙂
We went to town Friday and did a little
grocery
shopping and then went and got
us something to take home to eat from
Pizza
Hut for me, and Subway for Judy.
So we only ate a small portion
Friday
night and Saturday, so we’ve still got
enough for dinner tonight,
which also
means that we do not have to cook 🙂
I made us cinnamon buns
and the boys
some sausage links for breakfast today.
I did a little
sealing on the porch to cut
out the air flow from the center of the
porch
roof to the house. It was creating
quite a breeze in between the roof
and
the ceiling of the porch LOL. I fixed
it when I got up today before I
fixed us
breakfast. There’s not a lot that goes
on around this place. We
live pretty
simple lives spending much of our time
watching TV and
wrestling with our
boys/dogs. Oh yea, Our youngest
grandson got a job at
Walmart and
he’s doing a great job from what we
hear 🙂 Oh yea, I told
Judy just a
moment ago that I was thinking of
going ahead and publishing 2
more
books being I have books 11 and 12
ready and all I have to do now is
a
lot of formatting and then upload it
and then proceed with the
process.
LOL I’ve already got quite a few
written for book 13. Yes I
write a
lot. Anyways, I still have plans on
publishing a couple of
Christmas
versions of my books as well as a
few others. So, that’s about
all I’ve
got for you. God has been good
to us. He has His hands
wrapped
tightly around us and He’s holding
us in His arms. I’m sure we
have
a load of angels watching over us
as well. There are many times
that
we can feel their presence. So now
I reckon it’s time for me to be
taking
my little journey back through all of
my rambling to that little
place of my
recollection that I always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE. I
think I may
have stumbled upon a fairly decent
title about halfway back
through my
rambling and now after checking I see
that it’s not been used
yet, so used it
shall be. Here goes…
Blessings and
Nightmares
Time is but a factor
of the minutes that pass,
for as we
remember
the first might be vast.
Many times nightmares
of passed days
dreams
are then but only
the way that it seems.
It could be our
vision
remembering when
blessings of a moment
that then turned to
sin.
Yet looking clearer
you might see the truth
blessings of one
day
were nightmares of youth.
The seasons pass us by
to uncover our
prayers
lifetimes of hopeful
blessings and nightmares.

There ya go. I hope you liked the poem
and
maybe even a little of my rambling.
Yep, I do ramble don’t I! Well it’s 33
F
degrees now at 6:30 PM and supposed to
get down to 28 by morning. I’ve
ordered
us 200 gallons of heating oil and it should
be delivered Tuesday.
Although they may
not be able to get all 200 gallons in being
we’ve still
got maybe 70 gallons, but that’s
OK. At least we’ll have a full tank.
They
can put what’s left on our tab. We should
be good for a few
months. I’ll continue to
put a 100 dollars on our tab each month
so that
when we need it again, we’ll be all
set if we don’t run into problems. Yep
we
do the best we can to survive. A really
good friend of mine (Oscar
Rogers) called
the other day to check in on us and see
how we’re doing.
He’s been a good friend
of mine since the 70’s. We used to work
together
at the Wills Point Chronicle 🙂
It was great hearing from him. My mom
is
doing well with her transition to living
an apartment in the Dallas area.
She’s
just 2 miles from Peggy so she’ll be OK.
Anyways, that’s about all
I have for ya
other than what I tell you every week
and that is, I wrote
some more poetry
and haiku. Yeppers, 10 more poems
and 4 of them are
Christmas style with
1 of them being a Halloween poem LOL.
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 I believe it’s time for me to
begin
my search for that hardly elusive real
bad at hiding off switch,
but not before
I wish you a most joyous and blessings
filled week.
Remember, Jesus loves
you and we do too. Now, hmm where
can that off
switch be trying to hide??
Maybe this time it put some effort into
it’s
hiding spot LOL. NOPE, LOL,
I see ya you silly little
whippersnapper.
Trying to hide behind a clear bottle
of eyeglass cleaner
wasn’t the brightest
idea for a hiding spot. Try harder 🙂
Gotcha, see
ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzz.
God bless from Bill, Judy, Benny, Rocky
and
the spirit of Milo Pearce

Winter Proceeds
Just
over the way
you might recognize
a group of ducks
below winter’s
skies.
You might even see
in a season’s pond
them just swimming
and
carrying on.
You may even hear
a quack or two
while they splash
just
like ducks do.
Winter proceeds
its glorious trail
pathways of
hopeful
snowflakes set sail.
It brings into view
Christmassy
themes
as snowflakes arrive
creating their scenes.
Just like the
billows
of speckled designs
painted by God
of which He
refines.
Seasons of Ducks
thrashing around
in a wintery pond
a
wonderful sound.
Bringing about life
as time marches on
as winter
proceeds
until it is gone.

Day
of Halloween
Horrors of a night
begin with a scene
a time and
place
of a life’s requiem.
The days may begin
as a haunted house
a
place as a face
of spirits espouse.
A day of Halloween
is a awesome
sight
pumpkins decorated
to glow in the night.
Children will
walk
saying trick or treat
in hopes the evening
getting candy to
eat.
There may be a house
of a haunted decor
that children refuse
to
visit their door.
It might be scary
and a magical view
this house of
time
with a worn out hue.
Dreams may exist
of days of past
deep in
its walls
as shadows aghast.
Yet it may just be
a holiday
scene
within the moments
a day of Halloween.

Bench of Thoughts
Think for a moment
look for a
clue
the signs of the times
to do what to do.
Often it’s
emotions
gathered in a storm
thought for a moment
as mangled
forlorn.
Seek for the blessings
of a thought away
a time so
divine
as you kneel to pray.
Sat upon a bench
as the minutes
multiply
you might discover
how, when and why.
You might even
find
a place in your heart
that vibrates of love
for times work of
art.
It might encompass
a feeling of bliss
as a moment you recall
of
a heartfelt kiss.
Unleash your heart
in a prayerful array
and let God
guide you
day after day.
Allow your sadness
to travel across
to
discover your smiles
on a bench of thoughts.

Winter’s Sheen
With time ticking
as a clock on the
wall
the season’s beginning
stands high above all.
It shines
reflections
of the season’s delight
within the portions
of wintertime
white.
Glimmering beauty
as a season’s display
found as the echoes
a
Christmastime day.
Centered around snow
so fluffy and cold
it creates
glistening
time that’s foretold.
It may seem chilling
with snow all
around
a wintertime sight
with so much astound.
Just like a
moment
you might remember
a fireplace burning
amidst one December.
A
seasonal doorway
that swings as a smile
opening memories
for times to
compile.
Look deep within them
each wonderful scene
and find the
magic
within winter’s sheen.

Echoes of Autumn
Blessings of a moment
prayers come in
sight
as life and times created
from daytime to night.
Echoes of a
dreamscape
become as a glance
while time continues on
with its own
romance.
Seducing our eyesight
as a life giving way
showing and
bestowing
a timeless array.
The colors of autumn
display their many
views
as scenes within scenes
with magical hues.
Creating our
memoirs
as a seasonal design
to reflect on in pictures
we’ve taken time
to time.
Seeming as shadows
as glimpses from seed
like a book with
pages
life’s given to read.
Find deep within you
the times alive and
well
things you remember
sweet stories to tell.
Search with your
heart
and see what is there
the echoes of autumn
a scent of fresh
air.

Mindful
Journeys
Tracks we’ve traveled
places we’ve gone
become as
memories
that continue on.
Finding destinations
we’ve not needed
go,
but still we traveled
and it helped us grow.
Minutes
connections
engaged with a style
bring about hours
that days may
beguile.
Scented with aromas
of wants and needs
our mindful
journeys
might seem as weeds.
Yet as each chapter
of our life passes
by
we might find lessons
that give reasons why.
They may seem
harsh
as roads of despair,
but end with blessings,
answers to
prayer.
Find your true footing
on the tracks of time
in mindful
journeys
to your own design.

Portfolio of Life
Written in the minds
of wintertime’s
views
many may perceive
those holiday hues.
Christmas enhanced
as a
stage in flow
found as a pattern
of Christmassy snow.
A mere
portfolio
things accounted for
timelessly seeming
to some so
bizarre.
Many though love it
the sceneries bliss
Christmas in
essence
of a wintertime kiss.
Time becomes alive
as then is in
place
a portfolio of life
that many embrace.
Dreamers of time
become
as they wish
as written in pages
of days of delish.
Scenes ones
see
that are oh so divine
as Christmas lights
twinkle and
shine.
Putting forth a glow
of a season of style
a portfolio of
life
to give ones a smile.
A glimmering scene
that many will
view
enlightens their eyes
red, green and blue.
Yet it’s just a
dream
that’s written within
a portfolio of life
in hopes to
begin.

Bridge of
Illusion
When sights appear
on an autumn day
time might be
found
in a colorful way.
There may be rocks
amidst each view,
but a
river just may
disperse waters blue.
By creating a theme
of a colorful
style
a bridge of illusion
might show a smile.
It might have
hidden
behind such a scene
a time and place
a running stream.
You
might perceive
a time of confusion
found within life,
a bridge of
illusion.

Embarking
Winter
Traveling journeying
down cold snowy roads
delivers the
impact
of smiles by the loads.
Christmas type views
with a wintery
style
embarking journeys
with a glistening smile.
Wintertime’s
memoirs
are so timelessly found
within our emotions
as snow on the
ground.
Living as our dreams
that moments unlock
hearts found
blissful
as season’s time clock.
Steadfast with prayer
for wintertime
dreams
as seasons we remember
with the magical scenes.
Created as
heartbeats
with pulsating times
Christmas unleashes
its wondrous
designs.
Some maybe shining
and some then at peace
showing the
artwork
of Heaven’s release.
Blessings that become
as life front and
center
Christmastime scenes
when embarking winter.

Passing Leaves
Links to changes
find
their phase
scenes of ages
passing days.
Leaves may fall
and create
views
scenic changes
times infuse.
Like a heartbeat
leaves may
shine
as wind blowing
time to time.
You might begin
seeing
colors
textures growing
like no others.
Weaving wonders
just like a
web
flowing bestowing
as an oceans ebb.
Maybe branches
changing
views
life creates its
scenic hues.
Giving moments
time
achieves
as our heartbeats
passing leaves.

Haiku
for Nov 2, 2019
Fists full of dollars
cannot
buy true happiness,
it should be within.
Living for a moment
might
elude you from the best,
for you might be blind.
In search of the
truth
many lies will be exposed
and they might seem true.
Needless
are wantings
that only fulfill moments
leaving you empty.
Today
brings turnstiles
in form of living flowers
awaiting to
bloom.
Misleading concepts
can overturn many views
if they’re
convincing.
Change is like the wind
blowing many directions
with
the good and bad.
People of a time
might hold tight to a moment
and
not see right now.
Fact over fiction
is often argued knowledge
with
stupidity.
Powerless are ones
that stand still and do nothing,
but
count the seconds.
Becoming a breeze
can evolve how you get by
and
make you as air.
Fields of illusions
provide many ways of
life
compiled in a dream.
Twitching nervously
can be your fears
from within
or a health issue.
Outside looking in
can be a
beckoning life
wanting to enter.
Trials by fire
can often become
problems
burning way to hot.
Tears for a moment
can become rivers
of time
flowing rapidly.
Life can be a style
that someone chooses
to live
that is also death.
Lifestyles of a rose
are built upon
many thorns
that will make you bleed.
Harvesting your thoughts
for
moments to remember
can fuel depression.
Conclusions we find
might
not be of the true facts
when facts are involved.
Seeking for
grasses
in the fields of persuasion
might leave you empty.
Shadows
of ourselves
might be seen in the future
and not show the
truth.
