ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends
&
Have a
HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY

I hope you’re doing well. It’s looking more like winter
every day up here hehehe, Feeling like it too LOL brrr!
Yeppers it’s 24F degrees right now at 11:00 AM. It was
about 16 degrees this morning when Judy went to work.
It’s supposed to get up to 28F degrees today and down
to 11F degrees tonight brrrr hehe. I’m guessing that it
will get much cccccolder in the coming days. It snowed
yesterday (Saturday). I took a few pictures of it. I know
it ain’t much, but I’m sure we will get tons more before
it’s over with LOL. It’s just barely begun to show us its
true colors hehehe 🙂 of WHITE. I know that a number
of you west of us in neighboring states have already been
dumped on and may be still be getting dumped on hehe.
Hold tight. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride hehehe. Winter
has barely begun 🙂 OK so it’s onto another topic maybe
not about the weather hehehe. Judy just walked in from
work. She came home early, sick. She’s sneezing and
snorting over there. I had a feeling she might be getting
sick due to her having to blow her nose all night. I hope
she gets to feeling better. Anyways, she said she was
hungry so I heated up our leftover Hamburger Helper
that we had the other night and gave it to her. There
was just enough for one person hehe. I almost ate it
a little while ago LOL. Good thing I didn’t 🙂 Now
she is fed and she can take her insulin shot. We’ve
been playing on our farms quite a bit the last few days.
Not much else is happening here at the Pearce’s place.
I just turned on channel 180 ABC so she can watch
Christmas movies while I write this. After I finish it
I’ll watch it with her, but for now I have to separate
my thoughts from what I hear hehe. The Christmas
Wish is on right now. That is one of our many favorite
movies. It is looking more like Christmas every day.
Thanksgiving is just a few days away. I simply love
this time of season. It brings so much joy into my
heart, OUR HEART. I am still hoping to make it
back to Texas and surrounding states later on this
winter (February-March). Yeppers, there are
many people I am looking forward to seeing. I’m
especially excited about meeting my brand new
Step dad. I haven’t met Vernon yet. Talked to
him on the phone the other day to help him with
a computer problem he was having, but that’s
about all. My mom sent me some pictures of him
so at least I know what he looks like hehehehe.
Onwards to another topic. It’s a little hard to
focus hehehe. I love this movie 🙂 Judy’s over
there eating a popsicle hehe. The movie is over
now, so it’s onwards with the journal to maybe
finish it before another movie comes on that
steals my attention. It’s the Unlikely Angel.
with Dolly Parton. I think I can keep my focus
during this movie MAYBE hehehe. Seasonal
ways seem to fill up the days with the winters
white snow that is coming. We each may find
ourselves forgetting about our blessings during
our moments of troubles. This time of year is
a wake up call for us. Yet many will overlook
the blessings even with days of Thanksgiving
and Christmas upon us. If you have forgotten
the blessings or set your sights around them
and not seen them, then take a better look
around you. You might be surprised! Our
blessings come in many different sizes shapes
and forms. Let God help you to find your
blessings through prayer and patience as
the days go by. Now I guess it’s about time
for me to begin my little journey 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 through all of my recollection
to that place I like to call RECOLLECT
VILLE. I do believe I may have found a
good title. Now let’s see what if anything
at all I can do with it hehe. Here goes…

Your Blessings

A life of dreams
might seem not clear
until they’re found
one time of year.
See your blessings
in the view
through what God
has given you.
Often your blessings
may just seem
as a nightmare
not a dream,
but of course
they can be found
if you learn
to look around.
See your blessings
through the haze
in the coming
Christmas days.

I hope you enjoyed my rambling as well as maybe
the poem. Yep, it was hard to focus, but I’ve seen
these movies before, I am able to every once in a
while shut off my view and ears to the TV hehehe.
Not often though LOL. Well, to keep myself from
taking off to ramble land once again hehe I reckon
I need to be searching for that off switch. Before
I do that though, I need to be telling ya what I tell
you every week and that is, I wrote some more
poems and haiku. Yep, 10 more poems with four
of them Christmassy wintry styles. Also 22 more
haiku. I hope a few of them find a way into your
heart. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving
Day and a great week. Remember, Jesus loves
you and we do too. Now to find that confounded
off switch that loves to evade me 🙂 I see ya you
little varmint. Hiding behind the TV won’t save
ya hehehe. See ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Winter’s Prelude

Another winter
comes to play
with its whitish
snow today.
Another venture
cold and white
paints the distance
now in sight.
Scenes of wonder
found in view
seem to know
just what to do.
Another winter
comes with charm
bringing coldness
seeming warm.
White surroundings
here and there
are the answers
of my prayer.
Winter’s prelude
in November
tells us all
about December.

Winds Will Blow

Winds of time
design their way
in a line
from day to day.
Times might seem
to be awry
in a dream
of by and by.
Yet of course
the winds may be
just a force
of history.
Scenes displayed
by windy days
might be laid
to just amaze.
Things will change
with windy views
as some strange
old walking shoes.
Often moments
will go by
as atonements
when and why.
Time will move
in winds detail
even if you’ve
not set sail.
Winds will blow
their time and space
high and low
at their own pace.

Find Some Peace

Heated segments
of a scene
might just find
what you don’t mean.
Words of hatred
said and done
might just be
what’s not undone.
Let your anger
not explode
in a segment
down the road.
Calm the heated
segments true
that right now
are within you.
Yesterdays
of timeless sorrow
can destroy
right nows tomorrow.
Let your anger
find some peace
through the valve
of God release.
Let Him help you
find a way
to make peace
right now today.

The Things

Things are things
of wanted waste
that we often
want in haste.
They can ruin
all your sight
as the things
are nows delight.
Things can take
what need can give
as some things
will cease to live.
Let your needs
be found entwined
with what’s found
as good defined.
Let the things
to not be seen
as the ways
that you demean.
Of course wants
are not so bad,
but don’t let them
make you sad.
Common sense
of days gone by
can show truth
of when and why.

Frosted

Frosted windows
now are seen
as my winters
snowy dream.
Fresh white snow
is all around
painted on the
mornings ground.
Frosted pictures
hung outside
display with the
snow applied.
Now as winter
comes to shine
I can see
a great design.
Painted thresholds
display true
now as winter
starts anew.

His Increase

Found in thankful
is pure prayer
displayed as
a breath of air.
In Thanksgiving
comes a time
not to just then
sit and dine.
It’s a time
to find some peace
thanking God
and His increase.
Through the times
of bitter sorrow
we have chances
for tomorrow.
So be thankful
for His Grace
guiding us
from place to place.
Don’t let sorrow
destroy you
with the things
you used to do.
Let Thanksgiving
find a way
to help you see
a better day.

Snowy Moments

Now as snowflakes
fall to Earth
I can see
right nows rebirth.
I can see
the changes found
as imprinted
on the ground.
Scenic moments
as pure white
here and now
and out of sight.
Yet the snows
are not at peak
they might be
in just a week.
Winter portrays
scenic trails
as white snow
with little sails.
Floating sailing
as they fall
down to Earth
and over all.
Clearly speaking
snowy phrases
say await now
what amazes.
Snowy moments
found on cue
will be seen
from a sky of blue.

Lessons From Lifestyles

Problems will come
no matter the time
and they will blossom
inside of your mind.
We all have problems
that come and go
with some seeming
just to grow.
As our troubles
come into view
we will most often
see them askew.
Problems from minutes
will trouble our days
when we allow them
their unwanted ways.
Sometimes our choices
need to be changed
so as to lead from
lesser deranged.
Yet often problems
come with a gain
lessons from lifestyles
we can attain.

Poor Vision

Poor sighted people
see not the view
often internal
what’s me and what’s you.
It’s not our eyesight,
but how we see
judging each other
our selfish degree.
Poor sighted meanings
is but a phrase
how many see ones
coming of days.
Many will venture
that they have the tools,
but they are often
just acting as fools.
Using poor vision
to look and compare
you might just see what’s
not really there.

Snowy Dream

The weather’s changed
and left for me
some snowy days
for me to see.
The flavors scene
is snowy white
tasted as
what I delight.
The weather’s changed
and left a trail
here and there
with its detail.
Letters written
in the snow
display where all
that I go.
As my footsteps
make their drive
I find heartbeats
so alive.
The weather’s changed
and now is seen
as a ventured
snowy dream.

Haiku
for Nov 20, 2010

Now might enlighten
what blossoms that will be seen
from yesterdays time.

Gazing at the moon
might find its eyes looking back
as craters will view.

Someone’s emotions
can be misinterpreted
seeing sad not joy.

A feasible glance
at a morning of wonder
can create splendor.

Yesterdays outlines
can degrade what that’s today
by not letting go.

Little blades of grass
will make their own opinions
of snow that covers.

With the scent of now
leaves desire for a fragrance
if it is not sweet.

My own reflection
tells stories of long ago
as lines on my face.

Many a burden
is found due to greediness
not accepting now.

Follicles of snow
fall blissfully down to Earth
to make snow angels.

In but a moment
time might seem as a nightmare
and be a true dream.

Living on a breath
might find you suffocating
if the breath is bad.

Scenes found in valleys
could be imaginations
come from a moment.

Torrents of water
create the many landscapes
that we overlook.

Winter’s portrayal
comes from speckles of snowflakes
of Christmas morning.

Looking through windows
you might see a reminder
from your yesterdays.

Momentous answers
could be wrongly understood
and lead to despair.

Mountains from molehills
signify what many see
when viewing problems.

Questionable doubt
is what concludes from others
that don’t understand.

The words in stories
tell fiction or reality
as they’re determined.

Links of mornings chain
are connected to evening,
yet we can’t see them.

Today might find rain,
but tomorrow find sunshine
and the next day snow.
