ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

I’m back with more rambling 🙂  It’s been
a pretty nice passed week weather wise as
it has not gotten too hot.  It did though do
a little snowing last Wednesday hehehehe.
No, it did not stick, being that the ground
has already gotten too warm and the snow
melted on contact.  Judy looked out of the
window and said,  WOW,  it’s snowing and
we had to drive up to Presque Isle for her
doctors appointment.  It only snowed a bit,
but it did snow off and on all the way up
to Presque Isle LOL.  It really comes to
no surprise as we’ve had tons of snow in
May before so we weren’t surprised.  We
though were pleased to see it melt.  It’s
now 67 F degrees and Monday’s high is
forecasted at 61 F degrees.  It’s just right
for me 🙂  We didn’t do too much last week
other than do our hobbies as well as her
visit to her doctor in Presque Isle.  She got
good news from the doctor and that made
her and I happy.  She goes again Monday
for some tests.  While waiting I might walk
down to the pond at the hospital and take
a few pictures of the ducks that are always
there.  She’s going for a biopsy.  We’re in
hopes for good results 🙂  Today’s been
a good day.  We went to Walmart and did
a little shopping and bought Rocky a new
dog collar,  being the one he had on was
just a little bit too big for him.  There’s not
been much going this passed week.  We’re
old and enjoy just having some peace and
quiet when Rocky will allow it hehehehe.
He’s a good boy,  but he thinks he needs
a treat all the time and he starts raising
a ruckus to get one LOL.  Judy will give
in pretty quickly,  but he knows that I’m
not so quick to hand out treats hahahaha.
In time he’ll resort to eating his food that
is in his bowl hehehe.  He’s not very smart.
He doesn’t know if he wants a treat or if
needs to go potty LOL.  In time he’ll begin
spinning around in circles when he finds
out that he needs to go out and go potty 🙂
Yeppers,  he’s a Shih Tzu and he’s not the
brightest,  but we love that little boy. He
loves us too and we can see it in how he
is around us.  In case you haven’t noticed
last week was rather boring LOL,  not to
say that any other week is full of fun filled
excitement LOL.  Yep, we live a humdrum
life compared to what many might like,
but we enjoy it.  We are though preparing
to go play some mini golf in the next few
weeks or so.  We love to play that.  They
have benches at each hole to sit down and
rest and believe you me,  we use them LOL.
God has been good to us.  He is always
watching over us as are many angels and
kindly spirits.  We might have a few bad
times come to be,  but we are not facing
them alone.  Thank You God for always
be here for us.  Please keep Your mighty
hands over our friends and family as well
as many we do not know.  We praise Your
name.  Amen and Amen.  Now I believe
it’s time for me to be reading back over
all that I’ve written 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 might
have found a decent title near a quarter
of the way from the beginning of all my
rambling and now after checking I see
that it has not been used yet,  So I’m
gonna give it a go today.  Here goes…

Other Than

Now may be a sight
that you wanted a while
a time way back when
you were a little child.
Yet when growing older
the seasons showed truth
things that we never saw
way back in our youth.
Life becomes a fantasy
when want takes a ride
creating many turnstiles
that troubles coincide.
Look for the patterns
the doorways may show
and seek for the truth
that you need to know.
Other than a moment
of excitements array
seek for the blessings
when kneeling to pray.
Other than can become
a horrendous avenue
leaving you helpless
with no one but you.
Let God be your guide
and He’ll help you stand,
but don’t seek darkness
for it gives other than.

Well there ya go.  I know it’s not one of my
best poems,  but it’ll have to do 🙂  I hope
you liked it and maybe even a little of my
rambling.  Hopefully I said something that
gave you a smile. I don’t have anything else
to tell you other than what I tell you every
week and that is,  I wrote some more poems
and haiku.  Yep,  10 more poems.  1 of them
may seem a bit Christmassy hehehe.   I also
wrote 22 more haiku for all the haiku lovers
out there.  I hope that you can find 1 or 2 of
either or both that you like.  Now,  I believe
it’s time for me to begin my search for that
hardly elusive off switch,  but not before I
wish you all a truly blessings filled week.
Remember,  Jesus loves you and we do too.
Now, where can that ornery off switch be
trying to hide this time hehehe??  Like it
actually tries LOL.  Looking around the
room in all of its previous hiding spots 🙂
Nope,  no sign of it.   Hmm,  wait a sec 🙂
I think I see a little movement behind my
fan Hahaha.  So,   ya thought you would
hide behind it not realizing that it was on.
It was sucking ya in huh.  Ok so I rescued
you.  Don’t do that again you silly thing.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

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

Faded Scenery

Life can become
as a faded sight
a time of frame
with lesser light.
Seeming illusion
life may become
but only a scene
in seasonal
sun.
A picture portal
on a scenic ride
times excursion
of a countryside.
Creating sights
for eyes to gaze
forming dreams
for future days.
Sights as snow
on hilly ground
and trees of life
seen all around.
Blessings form
from all you see
often becoming
faded scenery.

Thru The Window

Driving to town
on a wintery day
so many sights
were on display.
Scenes of houses
roads of white
thru the window
was such a sight.
Snow was falling
melting in frame
as we drove on
a road in Maine.
Distant scenery
became a sight
as snow created
scenes of white.
A peaceful drive
in winter’s snow
was great to see
thru the window.

Evening’s Doorway

Breathing a breath
of a moment’s scene
the evening displays
an essence of dream.
The scenery becomes
as a true work of art
painted in sunshine
a time does impart.
Leaving its glimmer
as a turn of a page
of a book of design
with blessings of age.
Written with words
of a sunshine affect
giving our eyesight
a wondrous effect.
Awaiting the stars
to come out at night
and give to us stories
of a twinkling light.
It is but a journey
at the end of the day
stepping on through
to evening’s doorway.

Waves Remembrance

A passage of time
can become as gold
as scenic reflections
of the days of old.
The distant stage
is that of a picture
remembering sights
of seasonal mixture.
A summertime sun
with a cloudy haze
creates a heartbeat
for so distant days.
The waves rolling in
and landing ashore
to roll on back out
as they have before.
It’s now a memory
as blessings of time
scenes remembered
living in our mind.
Like a song of life
the tune carries on
as times to embrace
in a sweet love song.
Scenes of seasons
as song and dance
create the echoes of
waves remembrance.

A Morning Stroll

Awakening eyes
with time to fill
footsteps in time
give life to instill.
Walking your pet
or walking alone
a morning stroll
gives certain tone.
Peace of the heart
that times display
can then enhance
a brand new day.
Search within you
and find a place
a moment in time
as a smiling face.
Seek the journey
with a better goal
as one with Jesus
a morning stroll.

Glistening White

Timeless emotions
get lost in a view
hidden behind life
of the old and new.
Scenes come alive
as wintery winds
bestowing scenery
a time transcends.
Moments glisten
as a beating heart
producing scenes
as a work of art.
We may for a time
only remember
Christmas scenery
within December.
Stages decked out
in such a delight
as a snowy dream
glistening white.

Snoopybell

Tinkerbell moments
in a Disney theme
can form nightmares
or so scenic dreams.
A painted Snoopy
fluttering in the sky
can be laughable
so humorous to fly.
Seeming as magic
just like Peter Pan
the little Snoopybell
flies fast as he can.
He’s lost his world
of Charlie brown
or the Red Baron
that flew all around.
He’s now in a dream
as a laughable tale
painted in a picture
as little Snoopybell.

Streams

Passing reflections
some water may be
streams of illusions
that our eyes see.
Maybe a pathway
as a river of time
bestowing scenery
a wondrous design.
Living as moments
that pass us on by
streams within life
that lead to the sky.
Heavenly blessings
from God up above
trickling as water
as tidings of love.
Let the water flow
within your dreams
and become living
heavenly streams.

Seeking Memories

Living in dreamland
seeking for a time
memories dance on
inside of the mind.
Thriving as seasons
seconds tick on
when seeking sights
of a heartfelt song.
Sung as a reflection
and sung as a style
things we remember
as a timeless smile.
Seeming a shadow
a written memoir
inside of our heart
shining like a star.
It might be a place
remembered so well
a memorized time
with stories to tell.
Displayed as stages
of a timeless breeze
found when lonely
seeking memories.

Tidings of Clouds

Blue skies of mercy
as clouds floating by
create living doorways
with a changing sky.
Forms might display
as a cloudy dream
with tidings of clouds
in a magical scene.
Patterns that we see
might illuminate time
that beats as rhythms
of a drummer’s mind.
Becoming the music
of an endless display
time becomes a sight
in a wonderful way.
Often with raindrops
and sounds of thunder
as lightning streaking
within sights asunder.
Storms may enhance
what lives deep within
becoming momentum
for our life to begin.
Creating a doorway
to there and beyond
becoming as timeless
as a sweet love song.
Scenes are as magic
of heavenly shrouds
as blessings from God
with tidings of clouds.

Haiku
for May 20,  2023

Winds of decision
can often blow way too hard
and create a storm.

Many blades of grass
can seem to be growing great,
but have weeds within.

Today gives chances
to better our yesterdays
using the lessons.

Threads of a design
are as needle driven times
sewn in by choices.

A leaking vessel
will sink in waters of time
if it’s not repaired.

The errors we make
can become teachers of time
if we allow them.

Throughout our lifetime
doorways will come in our view
with some we should pass.

Years of desires
can become years of nightmares
if their not controlled.

Life’s a centerfold
written on living paper
with time to admire.

Threshold of a breath
is that of a passing breeze
resembling our life.

Styles of emotion
are like the air in balloons
some are over filled.

Traveling footsteps
can create many shadows
that some will follow.

Ignorance of time
is not a reason to stop,
for movement teaches.

Opening a door
can offer many chances
or help you to learn.

Branches of a tree
hold many leaves that will fall
when their time is up.

Counting your blessings
helps you focus on good things
and not just the bad.

Living in dreamworlds
can create many nightmares
that sneak up on you.

Holding fast to truth
prevents lies from taking hold
and becoming you.

Tomorrows of life
are formed from nows of today,
so focus on now.

Truth is a window
that many can see clearly
if they look closely.

Gossip is deadly
for it thrives on our hearsay
that’s not always true.

Counting blades of grass
can cause you to go crazy
for it is senseless.
