Our Choices

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

I’m back with more exciting stuff from
our portion of the world 🙂   Ok so it may
not be that exciting,  but reading kills a
little time until maybe something exciting
happens or not hehehe.  It’s looking like
Mr.Winter is knocking on our door as we
are expecting a little snow this week. Now,
there is no guarantee that we will get any of
the white stuff,  but I know for a fact that
if it does snow,  it will melt the second it
hits the ground,  being our temps have not
remained low for the ground is still a little
too warm and it will melt the snow unless
of course it snows so freaking much that
it hasn’t got a chance to melt and then it
might hang around for a bit :).  I went out
a little while ago and took the grate off of
the burn barrel and put the lid on it so it
does not fill up with snow whenever it does
start with the heavy stuff.  We might want
to burn some boxes during winter and if
it is full of snow,  it will hinder that.  So,
isn’t that exciting LOL.  Ok,  what else is
there to ramble about?  Well,  I did take a
few pictures this passed week and many of
them are selfies LOL.  I don’t do selfies too
often,  but I was in the mood while I was in
the car waiting for Judy to come out of the
eye doctors clinic.  She was having a check
up and all is well.  I even took a few pictures
of Rocky and then a few of Rocky and me
 together hehehehe.  Judy was just having
a check up to see if her eyes had worsened
through the years and she’s OK.  The sky
that day was beautiful and I took a lot of
pictures of it as evening was approaching.
Judy and I went and voted last Tuesday
and it looks like our choices won.  I went
outside on Saturday the 5th and took a
few pictures of the moon,  but they didn’t
come out too well.  I didn’t bring my tripod
out with me and I could not remain still to
zoom in LOL.  But I might share one of
the pictures in my stationery anyways.  We
are an exciting bunch aren’t we LOL.  Rocky
is doing well.  He’s over whatever he had last
week and back to his orneriness.  I think he
just had a bug and it passed.  The weather
report says rain which is doing a little bit
of now,  but it says it will switch to rain and
snow by midnight and do so till near 6 AM
and then it’s supposed to cease and become
partly sunny.  We’re as ready for it as we
can be,  being it’s coming whether we like
it or not or ready or not hehehe.  It gets
dark now around 4:30 PM and makes for
a seeming to be short day.  The
sun rises
near 7 AM,  but that will all be lessening
as it nears
December 21 and then the days
will be adding 2 minutes of daylight as each
day comes to pass.  There will be a time that
seems as if we live in Alaska LOL.  Doesn’t
that sound exciting hehehe.  I have grown
used to it.  I do though love snow and love
to watch it snow,  but when I have to dig
out our car,  that love gets a little grumpy 🙂
Oh well,  it’s life and I do enjoy going out
with Rocky to play with him in the snow
as well as taking pictures of the scenery and
all.  Yep,  things could always be worse,  so
I try to find the joy in the moments.  Yes
of course there are times that I might find
it difficult to smile,  but I try.  God is still
watching over us allowing all that we need
to strengthen us.  There are also many of
His angels around us helping us when we
are in need as well as many kindly spirits.
Problems will arise,  but we’ll make it one
way or another as we are meant to.  We
want to thank You God for all that You
do for us and have done.  Thank You for
never wavering in your being.  We pray
for You to watch over our family and
friends as well as the many that we don’t
know.  Thank You.  Amen and Amen.
Now I do believe it’s time for me to be
reading back over all that I have written
here to see if I can find me 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 think I may of stumbled upon a decent
title just about halfway back in all of my
rambling and now after checking,  I see
that it has not been used yet,  so used it
shall be.  Here goes…

Our Choices

Within without
our voices heard
might take flight
as a scenic bird.
So choose well
the path to trod
and don’t always
seek an applaud.
We might find
someone in pain
that found life
hard to attain.
For we might see
ourselves one day
within without
in a similar way.
So do your best
within your view
the best you can
the things you do.
Seek a pathway
of hopeful voices
to help each other
with our choices.

Well,  there ya go.  I hope ya liked the poem
and maybe even a bit of my rambling.  It’s
dark outside 🙂 and looks like midnight,  but
it’s only 7 PM hehehehe.  I’m thinking about
buying another heater next month being the
price of heating oil is outrageous.  We have
a full tank now,  but I doubt that it will last
more than 2 months and to fill our tank when
it was half full cost 987.00.  We’re hoping that
heating oil goes back down a little before we
need it again,  but we’re going to use our lil
radiator heaters and the surgeforce heater in
the living room to try and cut down on the
use of the furnace.  In any case,  we’ll make
it 🙂  So one last thing,  our landlord is doing
a little better.  he is home from the hospital
and I want to thank you for your prayers 🙂
I guess that’s all I’ve got for ya other than
what I tell you nearly every week and that is
I wrote some more poems and haiku.  Yep,
10 more poems and 2 of them are a little
Christmassy.  Also I wrote 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 with that said I reckon it’s
time for me to begin my search for that silly
hardly elusive off switch,  but not before I
wish you a blessings filled week.  Remember,
Jesus loves you and we do too.  OK now so
where can that ornery off switch be trying to
hide this time?   LOL I saw ya real quickly
moving from my K2 meter to my watch 🙂
Uh,  the K2 meter is bigger than my watch,
so why did you decide to hide behind my
watch???  Oh hehehe,  you thought that
being we have clocks I would not notice
you hiding nehind my watch.  Well being
that my watch is sitting right in front of
me,  you were hard to not see hehehehe.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

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

Oh yea,  I’ll add Judy’s Birthday poem
at the last of the poems.  ENJOY

Walks of Time

Many a footstep
placed on a road
can carry shadows
of life’s heavy load.
Seeming as echoes
our walks may be
that of reflections
of time’s history.
Created in style
with visions upon
we can make good
of a seasonal song.
Sung as footprints
of a timeless view
as you’re walking
to then thereunto.
Find the pathway
to a better mind
on your journeys
as walks of time.

Flowing Desires

Thoughts of rivers
thoughts of streams
are often flowing
within our dreams.
Seeking the future
with better displays
we need to change
the now and todays.
Not letting wanna
to fill up our minds
as flowing desires
for better designs.
Look for the truth
in all that you do,
for if you do not
it might haunt you.
The stream of life
flows as a river
and into an ocean
that times deliver.
Let your wantings
to seek good attires
and not but only
flowing desires.

Life of Flight

Oceans of styles
are waves of minds
flying in the breeze
of echoes of times.
Life is a doorway
as scenes to begin
that flow as water
in an ocean’s wind.
Wings are amidst
a summer’s breeze
giving the options
to fly with the seas.
Become a shadow
of a scenic array
as a life of flight
on a summer’s day.
Look for the good
within the scenery
as a life of flight
that’s above a sea.
Dream of the stars
that come at night
and then look on
to a life of flight.

The Coming of Eve

Many a reflection
begins in the mind
with our perception
of time after time.
Seeming so quickly
to become history
the coming of eve
night’s soon to see.
Seasonal doorways
become our glance
the coming of eve
a timeless romance.
Allow your mind
a breath to breathe
as the start of night
the coming of eve.

Reflections Allure

Looking in mirrors
truth might be found
different than the view
of you looking around.
Reflecting on a time
that you saw all alone
might show the light
of a truthful cologne.
It’s aroma might lie
due to all of the style
as reflections allure
shows a phony smile.
Found in your mirror
a reflection may grow
a time you remember
all you used to know.
Standing in the scene
looking all around
confusion had its way
with vision and sound.
It brought you lessons
from a seasonal tour
that are now pathways
to reflections allure.

Christmas Awaits

White snow displays
a seasonal charm
a wintertime’s day
and hearts so warm.
Christmassy essence
scented as a sight
awaiting for Santa
to make his flight.
So many dreamers
find peaceful views
as stories unfolding
what hearts infuse.
Blessings acquired
from seasonal skies
land within winter
in Christmassy eyes.
Prayerful surrounds
the seasonal show
with many blessings
as white as snow.
It becomes rhythms
that each soul elates
a season of blessings
as Christmas awaits.

Words of Minds

Sought in a dream
time shows a sky
as seconds tick on
seeing clouds fly by.
Heartbeats begin
as many dreams
seen as a painting
with magical scenes.
Many times ages
are a reflection
so often mistaken
with ones perception.
See what’s truthful
within the times
and read the heart
the words of minds.

Life’s Hourglass

Our life in flesh
is but just a time
that seems so long
within our mind.
The things we do
as life moves on
might sing a tune
as a living song.
The sands of time
pour like rain
as an hourglass
that times attain.
Use God’s gifts
He has given you
to do the best
that you can do.
The sand still falls
and comes to pass
within our heart
life’s hourglass.

Winter’s Hurrah

A cold snowy road
reveals a design
a scenic discovery
of a season of time.
It flows as a dream
to a wintery place
a winter’s hurrah
as time’s embrace.
A living storybook
written in the snow
on a wintery path
the seasons bestow.
Heartbeats of life
are found as a gaze
alive and thriving
Christmassy days.
Snowflake threads
the sky might draw
painting a picture
of winter’s hurrah.

Darkness Forms

Within our struggles
are so many tools
to use in the future
as lifetimes schools.
There might be times
you saw not a clue
of an answer in life
that’s meant for you.
Yet there are lessons
hidden within time
of which when ready
will live in our mind.
Darkness may form
and hide the truth
when in the old days
living in our youth.
Yet in the doorways
of readiness flow
darkness will fade
and light will show.
So when in your life
some darkness forms
find God’s blessings
that time adorns.

Haiku
for Nov 12,  2022

Looking for answers
to many questions of time
might find confusion.

The end of the line
is on either you may be,
so use good judgment.

Threading a needle
needs patience and steady hands
lest you may not sew.

Our fields of vision
might be blinded by shadows
that form in our sight.

Beyond yesterday
there may be repercussions
that thrive in our thoughts.

Sought after doorways
are often only wantings
and not what’s needed.

Thoughts are revealing
when our words are intervened
combined with action.

Life’s driving forces
are often that of egos
filled  chockfull of pride.

Time is a window
that might open with a view
that’s disillusion.

Years of perception
can drown out reality
and hide what is true.

Throughout history
life creates many journeys
that connect today.

Fighting for the truth
you might find the truth’s a lie
and a lie the truth.

Breathe in with true love
and exhale all of your hate
and be filled with peace.

Traveling down a road
some bumps might awaken you
for what lies ahead.

Times can be boring
as things happen really slow,
but that could be good.

Shouting in anger
can often create a force
that pushes ones away.

Grading your own life
you might not see all that’s there
that others can see.

Turning a corner
might at times seem real scary,
but turns are needed.

Flowering lifestyles
might often be only weeds
seeking your vision.

Texting a sentence
others might not know the truth
being they can’t hear.

Acting like a fool
some might think you are a fool
not knowing the truth.

Our highlights of life
might seem to be real dismal
to other people.
