ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s that time once again for me to do a little
rambling LOL.  I hope you had a nice passed
week and the weekend went well for you.  We
didn’t do much last week other that go to the
grocery store and we did that before it snowed
and then after it snowed I got out to do a little
clearing on the driveway and I was surprised
by the snow plow that was doing the driveway
and he saw me and waited for me to get our
car cleared out and moved so that he could
plow the rest of our driveway.  I hope that he
comes again tomorrow,  because it’s snowing
now and we have already gotten today about
4.5 inches and expecting a few inches more
tomorrow/Monday.  We’re also expecting lil
bit more snow Tuesday.  Yep,  we’ve got a
few more months of winter up here.  I will do
my best to keep our driveway cleared,  but
today,  my body is still recouping from the
previous snow blowing venture LOL.  They
don’t work by themselves ya know hehehe.
It’s 22 F degrees right now at 6 PM and the
low for tonight is supposed to be 15.  Still
not too bad compared to what it has been
in the past 🙂  Tomorrow/Monday I’m going
to do a little now blowing because if I don’t
we will not be able to get out of our drive 🙂
Also hoping the plow truck comes and does
what I am not able to do which is the bulk
of the driveway.  I can do around our car
and a portion on our driveway,  but not all
the way to the road.  I tried to do that one
day a couple of years back and it landed me
in the hospital.  That requires a little more
work than my body is able to do.  especially
now years later.  Yep,  I’m not getting any
younger.  As long as our landlord keeps
sending someone to plow our driveway we
will be OK.  I don’t mind doing a little of
it if I am able.  Judy and I live a simple life
up here in the small town of New Limerick
population of 500.  LOL yep it’s a big city.
We have one small store and the town office
is operated by one person LOL.  So yes we
live out in the boonies.  We love living out
here,  not having the hustles and bustles
of the city life.  Though we do have to go
to town often to buy groceries and pay
bills and that is an eight mile drive one
way 🙂  It gives me chances to take a few
pictures here and there.  Plus we can let
Rocky out to play or to go potty and we
don’t have to worry about him getting hit
by a car or anything being we live quite
a ways from the county road.  When I
walk out to check the mail, he just sits
down in the driveway and watches me
as I walk there and back.  He knows he
is not allowed to go that way being we
taught him as well as his brothers Benny
and Milo using invisible fences which
are shock collars that allowed them to
go only as far as we had the electric fence
programmed for and if they started going
too far it would start beeping warning them
to stop or they would be shocked.  It only
took them all one time of being shocked to
where they learned the boundaries and we
did not need to use the collars anymore 🙂
We haven’t used them in years,  but we’re
hanging onto them just in case we decide
to get us another dog later on.  It’s better
than them going to the road and getting
run over or stolen.  Anyways,  we have
our boy Rocky now,  but he is as old as
Benny would be if he had not of passed
on last year.  We hope Rocky stays with
us for a while longer,  but you never know.
He’s turned into a loving little boy and we
will be sad to lose him.  Anyways,  that’s
what’s going on around here at the moment.
We don’t do much other than our hobbies
and watch TV.  LOL we’re such an exciting
bunch aren’t we hehehe.  Judy just headed
back to bed.  She said she was still tired.
We stayed up till after 6 AM this morning
watching TV and I think we might have
gotten up a bit too early.  No matter,  she
can take little a nap,  while I finish this 🙂
Rocky was asleep in the floor but he just
woke up and is now pestering me.  I think
he is trying to tell me that he needs to go
outside.  Nope,  I just asked him and he
didn’t start spinning and then run for the
door.  I think he just wants my attention.
LOL he is silly.  God is still watching over
us and I am thankful for that.  We’ve got
many angels and kindly spirits watching
over us as well,  that He has sent.  We can
feel their presence.  Many years of my life
I was not aware that God was looking after
me,  but as I look back on those times,  I
can see where He had to of intervened or
I would not be here now.  I am sure many
of you can see that within your own lives.
Judy and I are very thankful that God put
us together and is watching over us with
His protection.  I ask God kindly to also
watch over our friends and family as well
as ones we do not know.  Thank You God
for all that You have done for us and surely
all that You will do.  Amen and Amen 🙂
Now,  I think it’s time for me to be reading
back over all that I’ve 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 always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE.  I think I found me a
pretty good title just a few lines back that I
might be able to use and now after checking
I see that it hasn’t been used yet.  So used
it shall be.  Here goes…

Their Presence

Angels among us
may watch and pray
as they so patiently
give help day to day.
They might be seen
as ones we pass by
on day to day roads
that times multiply.
They might be heard
as a voice of love
within their presence
sent from above.
They might even be
a moment of life
that we remember
as times of strife.
Spirits and angels
are with us thru time
within their presence
of Heaven’s design.

Okey dokey,  there ya go.  I hope you liked
the poem and maybe even a little of my on
going rambling LOL.  Well Rocky ended up
needing to go outside and I let him out, but I
kept an ear out for him for when he barks to
tell me he’s ready to come back in.  I never
heard him bark,  but it’s cold outside,  so I
went and checked on him.  I had to holler
for him a couple of times,  being he was just
having fun in the snow.  Though he finally
decided to come in and swooshed through
the doggy door on the porch and I let him
in the house.  He is much the same as our
boy Benny was.  He loves the snow,  and
hates the rain.  He doesn’t like to get his
paws wet.  Anyways,  he’s lying down in
the floor behind me now.  When I came
through the bedroom I asked Judy if she
was OK and she said yea.  She might be
getting up in a bit.  I should be done with
this by then.  So that’s about all I have
for you that is worth telling,  other than
what I tell you 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.  So,  with that said
I reckon it’s time for me to begin my
search for that hardly elusive off switch,
but not before I wish you a blessings
filled week.  Remember,  Jesus loves
you and we do too.  Now,   where can
that silly ornery of switch be trying to
hide this week?   LOL now that was
easy.  You didn’t even take the time to
look for a place to hide,  did ya?  Nope,
there ya are right behind my itsy bitsy
eyedrop bottle hehehe.  It’s not large
enough to hide a pill behind,  so you’re
for sure not hidden.  Try harder  LOL.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

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

Time Unfolds

Towards a dream
time might display
a road of seasons
in awesome array.
It might become
as a tale or two
found in moments
within our view.
Seen as a highway
from here to there
time is a window
filled with prayer.
It opens doorways
and lets life thru
channeling info
to then thereunto.
So often it might
have heavy tolls,
but filled with life
as time unfolds.

Breathing Memories

Yearning for moments
seeking for a time
such as the doorways
of a wintertime mind.
So many only view it
as a time to complain
while others see it
as a breath to attain.
Find a true heartbeat
within your sight
that may be of winter
with snow of white.
You might remember
some loving scenes
as four legged friends
that now are dreams.
They can continue
living on through you
as breathing memories
your heart can view.

Follow The Light

Sought after turnstiles
might not be good,
they may be wrong
or misunderstood.
Let God to guide you
to here thereabout
and let your journey
to find the best route.
There may be clouds
found in your view
that God might give
to enlighten you.
You might see times
as a big mistake,
but God makes good
the steps that we take.
So don’t let the road
to give only fright.
Seek for the lessons
follow the light.

Above The Trees

Passing of clouds
can often display
a seasonal scene
in a magical way.
It may seem gray
as clouds drift by
or maybe of white
as love in the sky.
It may transform
a day and time
into that of life
for minds to find.
Above the trees
you may see views
as the blue skies
then surely infuse.
Allowing clouds
a passing breeze
that shows designs
above the trees.

Life’s Icicles

Thriving as time
some just perceive
the icicles forming
wintertime’s weave.
Creating moments
cold hanging down
and not looking for
the beauty around.
Open your eyes up
and see the sights
within life’s icicles
that joyful ignites.
Search for blessings
amidst the displays
as icicles form in
shimmering ways.
See time transform
into a magical place
as moments give us
a unique embrace.
It may be seasons
we do not agree
as life’s icicles form
both you and me.

Above Water

Often our problems
will seem to grow
as troubles roll in
with a constant flow.
Yet as oceans waves
time might be found
as carrying portions
of hopeful around.
Scenes can be seen
as a moment’s array
scented of scenery
from day unto day.
Continue swimming
the best that you can
and just let the times
to give you a tan.
Use the living waves
to help you ashore
as you continue to
swim a little more.
Don’t just give up,
for you can win
head above water
with time and again.

Enjoy The Time

Searching the past
seeing the stride
you might just see
what then did hide.
The beauty of life
as friends and pets
with family time
a moment forgets.
Find you a photo
of then and there
and close your eyes
and say a prayer.
Thankful for times
you had back then
for when it came
it was as the wind.
Blowing quickly
and hard to view
that time that came
that then was new.
Find the memories
alive in your mind
then let them live
and enjoy the time.

Hint of Blue

There might be
clouds in flight
of a grayish tint
with some white.
The sky of life
a time displays
might have blue
within the grays.
A heart may be
a passing scene
as ships sailing
in seas of dream.
Moments pass
creating a place
often confusion
found on a face.
For as the clouds
pass over you
you might recall
a hint of blue.

Buried in Snow

Problems might come
in a seasonal way
as snow that’s falling
in a winter’s array.
Becoming as mounds
of troubled designs
found buried in snow
as worrisome minds.
We might get antsy
not seeing a way out
and not take the time
to find a good route.
Seek for the answers
and a breath of air
for God will deliver
when saying a prayer.
Don’t allow problems
to be the end of you,
for there are answers
to give a new view.
Time paints pictures
often filled with woe,
but don’t let them win
when buried in snow.

So Many Choices

Roadways pathways
journeys of miles
can create doorways
of so many styles.
So many moments
become as our ways
as time rearranges
our journey’s phase.
Oh so many choices
the times interweave
forming pathways
new ways to breathe.
Becoming magical
seeming an illusion
the pages may turn
becoming confusion.
Heard as a memory
the sound of voices
roads can become
as so many choices.

Haiku
for Jan 28,  2023

Searching for a dream
in the midst of a nightmare,
you might need to pray.

When rain clouds unload
you might need to learn to swim
or find some shelter.

Yesterday’s problems
can become today’s as well
if we allow them.

Throughout our lifetime
we might come across bridges
that are hard to cross.

Listening to lies
you might get lost within them
if you don’t seek truth.

Walking down pathways
that have memories within
you might lose yourself.

Years will pass us by
leaving shadows of ourselves
within memories.

Looking to the sky
we may see time looking back
in the form of clouds.

Wading through water
we might splash some on others
that want to stay dry.

A mind is a stage
with actors as we may think
and journeys beyond.

Facing our troubles
gives us strength to move ahead
and learn the lessons.

Glimmers of sunshine
might be hidden in darkness
that our eyes can’t see.

Wheels of emotion
become journeys of the mind
leading us along.

Daytime meets nighttime
as shadows envelop life
with scenes within them.

Found in life’s roadways
might be a lot of speed bumps
in the form of holes.

Counting your blessings
you might find many hidden
that you did not see.

Many threads of life
are sewn together with love
that we knew not of. 

Beyond the skyline
there is a another scene
that the sun shines on.

The fear of darkness
is a fear of many things
that are in the light.

Trails we discover
can become as our lifestyles
if we take them in.

Moving too quickly
you might stumble upon time
that moves much slower.

Turning lose anger
and letting forgiveness live,
you will find some peace.
