ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

I’m back again with another installment of my ramblings LOL.!
My pinched nerve has eased up a tad, but still gives me a little
trouble often with the same pincushion affect, but nothing that
I can do about that. I’ve tried to play my conga drums, but with
the same results. I may have to just stow the pain and just play.
It don’t look like the pain in my hand and forearm are going to
cease any time soon hehehe. OH well, that’s life. Ok so it’s on
with the journal. The weather has warmed up a bit lately, but
there is still a lot of snow outside. The temperatures for the
next week or so are supposed to be in the 50’s, so that should
surely melt away what’s left. Maybe if we’re lucky we might
see spring FINALLY hehehe. It’s 55F degrees right now LOL.
Quite a change, but mother nature could decide to turn the old
thermostat down again before it’s over with hehehe. I’m busy
washing laundry as I type this article. Got another load to put
in after I put this one in the dryer, then I’ve gotta start on the
dishes. Yet I cannot do the dishes while typing hehehe so they
will have to wait LOL. I just put the second load of wash in
and got the first in the dryer, so I guess I can try to finish my
rambling now hehehe. The life of retirement phttttttttttttttttt!
It would be nice if I were in better health and able to drive to
visit people or better yet if anybody up here actually wanted
to have anything to do with me LOL. Oh well, I’ll continue
on as I have. Judy and I had a FarmTown surprise Friday.
When we logged on, we noticed that they upped the levels
AGAIN. Just as Judy reached the final level of 185 with me.
Now the final level is 210 hehehe and they’ve gone and added
yet another farm. Soooooo now we both have 9 farms. Yep,
we’ve both been doing some decorating on them hehehehehe.
We both decided to make our farm 9 an Easter farm. We
still put some facilities on them so we can run produce and
all hehehe. I put an ocean border on mine. I think Judy’s
gonna do the same maybe later. In any case, we are both
enjoying decorating our FarmTowns on FaceBook. People
ask us if we do FarmVille. We both have farms there, but
who has time to manage them hehehe? I visit mine ever so
often when the mood hits me LOL. We’re still playing our
hidden object games. My good friend Ben in Holland bought
us 5 game tickets for Big Fish games, so when we finish this
game we’re playing, I’ll look to find another game for us to
play. We’ve been playing them for many years hehehehehe.
Hidden object games are games that we can play together.
Using both sets of eyes or somewhat in that manner hehehe
we search on my PC. Not much else is going on up here
aside from our regular. We still watch all our favorite TV
programs. The new season of Deadliest Catch comes on
Tuesday night I think so I’m sure if it’s on, we will surely
be watching it hehehe. I got her hooked on it one day when
searching for something to watch. We’ve been watching it
since it came to air about 6 years ago hehehe. Our life in
the fast lane LOL yea right! I took a few pictures outside
Friday and Saturday to show my friends what it still looks
like up here hehe. I’ll probably use a few of them for my
stationary. So if you’re receiving this in stationary form,
you will be able to see what it still looks like up here 🙂
Yeppers, it’s still white, but should be melted away one
day soon God Willing. I know it will be real slushy for
a week or so hehehe, but it should dry up. I feel sorry
for the people that live in low lying areas. Thank God
it’s not raining profusely, but rain is in the forecast for
this week. Not enough to worry about though. It’s very
quiet so far today. No kids riding their snowmobiles or
ATV’s hehehe. There’s a blue sky out today which makes
it hard to see without going snow blind hehehe. The sun
reflects off of that stuff just like a freaking mirror. Well
there ain’t much else to report from up this ways. Judy
is still at work, but I expect her home in an hour or so.
Hopefully I will have this as well as all the laundry and
dishes done before then. If not, then I’ll continue till
I’m done LOL. I wonder what she’ll want to eat for
lunch or dinner. Maybe she’ll bring something home
from the diner hehehehehehehe. That would be great!
I just opened one of the windows in here to let some
fresh air in. It feels good. I thank God for providing
such a beautiful day. It’s days like today that make
me happy to be alive. We often get caught up in the
drudgery of our mundane daily experiences and miss
all the beauty that God has put before us. Look now
and see what wonders that are around you that you
have just ignored before. It might be a little flower
or a cloudy sky of pictures. You might even find the
beauty in your own memories that you revisit. Life
is not just about today. It’s about the things we’ve
gathered such as friends, places, dreams and many
things we’ve done that we should be thankful for.
Look now and replace your sadness with the joy of
life. Now I guess it’s time for me to be revisiting all
that I’ve written here to see if I can find a good word
or phrase that might work well for the title for today’s
brand new poem. So it’s away I go to that place of
my recollection that I like to call RECOLLECT
VILLE. I believe I may of stumbled upon a good
title. Now let’s see what I can do with the thing 🙂
Here goes…….!

It Might Be

Life might seem
to be unfair.
It might be
you’re unaware.
Time might seem
as turtles pace.
It might be
you shouldn’t race.
Things might take
a daily toll.
It might be
you’re wrongful goal.
Life might seem
to be unclear.
It might be
you’re yesteryear.
Time might seem
to be a crime.
It might be
a needed time.
If you’re seeing
life unfair,
it might be
an answered prayer.
If you’ve heard
a heartbeat beating,
it might be
Lord God succeeding.

OK so I hope that came out right hehehe. Heaven knows.
I never really know if what I’m writing will be understood
by anyone but me hehehe until of course someone tells me.
I’m looking out my window right now at the blue sky. It’s
so beautiful, but of course I totally love a semi cloudy sky.
Hehehe I found a new title to write about LOL. You’ll see
it next week or should I say read it hehe. Well, as you can
see or hehehe not see but tell, my hand is not giving me as
much trouble as it did last week. It still bothers me, but
I think I may have to get used to that along with everything
else that I’ve had to get used to hahaha. I’m listening to
the Sirius Spa radio station on our TV. It’s very relaxing.
It reminds me of a radio station I used to listen to in Texas
called Musical Star Streams. It was on late at night and
played relaxing music. I turned Judy onto it and now she
loves to have that music playing while we sleep or should
I say she sleeps LOL. Check it out sometime if ya wanna.
Here’s the address to it http://www.starstreams.com/ on
the net. I have bought many of the CD’s that they have
played on the radio. I can’t help it hehehehe I love that
type of music. Judy does too now since I introduced it
to her when we first met. You can listen to the music on
their website using your Windows Media player or the
equivalent thereof. Ok so I guess I need to be telling you
what I tell you every week and that is I wrote some more
poems and haiku. Yeppers, 10 more poems with one
of them another Christmas poem hehe. Also 22 more
haiku for all my haiku lovers. Oh, for those of you that
do not know this hehe, haiku an epigrammatic Japanese
verse form of three short lines. Epigrammatic means
brief and to the point as well as witty. School has been
dismissed hehehe. Now it’s time for me to be searching
for that old off switch, but not before I wish you a most
wonderful and God filled week. Remember, Jesus loves
you and we do too. Now to find that freaking off switch.
Found it on the steps watching the melting snow with
sunshades on hehehe. See ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehe:)

Scenes Around Me

Scenes around me
now are changing
with their daily
rearranging.
Scenes are fading
from my view
beginning springtime
so anew.
Time just seems to
be as found
as a daily
merry go round.
Scenes transcending
here and there
as they flourish
everywhere.
As a painting
colored white
I see scenes
of snow in sight.
Scenes around me
very strange
that of springtime
with no change.

Rainbow Dream

As a storm cloud
said and done
time sometimes
is rain or sun.
Sometimes daily
things might seem
as a storm clouds
rainbow dream.
Simple moments
within rain
done in dreams
of time again.
Rainbow dreams
of simple times
found in storm clouds
wondrous rhymes.
Often many
will be seen
searching for their
rainbow dream.

Right Now Here Now

Right now here now
I can see
times of signs
from history.
Things recorded
here and there
are sometimes
our answered prayer.
Right now here now
might be found
as some problems
all around.
Yet those problems
that we see
might be best
for you and me.
Right now here now
might be said
as some wrongful
done instead.
Yet that wrongful
that we’ve done,
might be lessons
setting sun.

Within My Eyes

In my dreams
I recognize
Christmas moments
in my eyes.
Seasons blessings
oh so true
in the dreams
of which I view.
In my dreams
I seek to find
joyful scenes
inside my mind.
Twinkling lights
on Christmas trees
this is what
this dreamer sees.
Fluffy snowflakes
falling down
in dear Santa’s
Christmas Town.
In my dreams
I fantasize
all of this
within my eyes.

Unity

Moments meadows
I record
are thanksgivings
from our Lord.
Many blessings
in my sight
are God’s blessings
day and night.
We may often
make our view
moments meadows
seen askew.
It is sometimes
just our mind
that determines
what we find.
Moments meadows
unity
sometimes changes
what we see.
If united
with your heart
moments meadows
will impart.
Signs of beauty
as a phrase
will enlighten
future days.

Rainstreet

In the essence
times complete
you might stand
within rainstreet.
Times of troubles
may display
here and there
and day to day.
Times might show
their bitter sweet
found within
today’s rainstreet.
Let your troubles
fall from mind
as you seek
a happy time.
Let rainstreet
be put to bed
with what all
that Jesus said.
Let the problems
said and done
be resolved
by God’s Own Son.
Let Him help you
find a way
to make rainstreet
not so grey.

Life In Maine

Life in Maine
with April snow
hides the things
that wish to grow.
Soon though maybe
snow will melt
leaving springtime
seen and felt.
Yet right now
in Northern Maine
I think springtime’s
gone insane.
There is nothing
I can see
which reminds of
history.
Not of Texas
days of old,
but New England’s
April cold.
Life in Maine
is now my view
sometimes seen
a bit askew.
Seen as snow-blind
out my window
there is winters
innuendo.
Flowers have not
yet been seen
within winter
should be spring.

Little Crystals

Little Crystals
glistening
seem to melt
awaiting spring.
They still hold
their daily place
in this seasons
moments race.
Little crystals
far and wide
will you melt
or coincide?
Will you leave
or will you stay
now in April
or in May?
Little crystals
now and then
will you lose
or will you win?
Will you hold on
to each day
or just one day
melt away?

Many Shadows

In the shadows
we might see
all our fears
from history.
Things we worried
couldn’t view
in the shadows
me and you.
In the unknown
shadows brink
we imagine
things we think.
Things we’ve heard
that others said
now are shadows
in our head.
Many shadows
are just viewed
maybe daily
misconstrued.
So if shadows
come to mind
let your vision
truthful find.
Let not shadows
live as fear.
Search the reasons
very clear.

Sky Music

Lengthy mornings
dawning day
bring to view
another way.
Bits and pieces
mornings bring
are the segues
seasons sing.
Different seasons
fall in place
as the sky
of music’s face.
With sky music
comes a tune
as remembered
until noon.
Then the dancing
swings and sways
with sky music’s
own displays.
Clouds might blow
from thereunto
bringing dancing
there to view.
In sky music’s
dancing clouds
you might see
your dreams arouse.
Lengthy minutes
pass on by
in the music’s
passing sky.

Haiku
for Apr 9, 2011

Waiting for sunset
could lose you many chances
to do what you need.

Inner most feelings
can sometimes be concluded
as just emptiness.

The signatures signed
might be unlawfully done
so don’t be stupid.

Flowers of springtime
display their unique beauty
in their own timeframe.

You might see storm clouds,
but the rain might be needed
to wash away tears.

The emerald way
could be just a mere facade
hiding what that’s true.

Listen to raindrops
and hear their pitter patter
speaking many words.

Spirits of the sea
crash upon our shores of life
with hope from within.

Many sordid thoughts
will construct many problems
that need better sight.

The dawn of new days
brings chances for tomorrow.
one step at a time.

Patience is gathered
when you accept a moment
that you cannot change.

Summer’s silhouettes
display in the sight of spring
as time runs its course.

When changing too fast
you might find many problems
you did not expect.

True love cannot thrive
in a heart that’s full of hate.
Learn how to forgive.

Nightmarish shadows
might show us fears from within
that are just facade.

Memories of time
come as yesterdays echoes
we may hear today.

A page of time turns
leaving perception displayed
sometimes as misread.

Synchronizing time
can make things to fall in place,
yet sometimes not so.

Worry is trouble
when the outcome is ulcers
with bad conclusions.

A flowers lifestyle
blossoms as a smile in spring
then sleeps in winter.

Early in April
our landscapes filled with white snow
in New England’s spring.

In every moment
lives a second yet to move
that we may stand still.
