ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

I hope you have had a decent weekend and the weather
has not gotten you down. It’s snowed a little yesterday
and refurbished what snow that had melted LOL and so
it’s still white as can be outside. Judy and I went to town
yesterday to do a little shopping and the roads were a tad
messy. It snowed all the way there and back hehehehehe,
but it was a pretty drive LOL. I drove the car this time
being Judy hates driving in the snow. I drove like about
40 miles an hour there and 30 miles an hour back hehehe,
being we took the more un driven road coming home and
it was MESSY. I can drive short clips, but not long ones,
being my eyesight doesn’t hold out that long. Plus I had
her as my copilot with a second pair of eyes hehehehehe.
I enjoyed driving the car, being I don’t get to too often.
Ok so I guess it’s onwards with the journal. Right now
it’s a little after 5 in the morning. I just finished writing
all of my poems and haiku being I hadn’t felt much like
writing before now. I might wait and go over the poems
with Judy later today before I send them being last week
I had that little screw up with the date we moved up here
and sent it LOL. Anyways, life goes on. There’s not
much to report from up here at the Pearce’s household.
We’re still alive and OK maybe not well hehehe, but we
are alive. We’re still doing our regular scheduled stuff
with Farmtown and what nots. We’ve gotta put our car
in the shop tomorrow so it can have some new struts and
front wheel bearings put on it so it can get registered for
another year. I’ve a feeling that’s gonna cost us an arm
and a leg. Oh well, it’s gotta be done. We need the car
to get us around. It don’t do us any good to complain
about it LOL. Although I wish it did hehehehehehe. So
what else is going on around this place? Good question!
Judy’s sister Barbara is doing good. She will be done with
all the radiation treatments by the end of the month and
I know she will be freaking happy about that 🙂 I am so
glad that she is doing so well. So, what else is going on
up this way? Well Judy and I went to Presque Isle for
her SSD doctors appointment Friday. We’re hoping it
all goes well. After the doctors appointment, we went
on up to Caribou Maine to visit with her daughter and
granddaughter. We had a great visit. Me and Rylee
played with her Barbie’s and all hehehe. Judy got a few
pictures of me and her with all the dolls LOL. Judy
asked me if I would be mad if she posted a picture of
me and her playing on Facebook. I said heck no, she’s
my granddaughter 🙂 I guess I’ve done stranger things.
LOL, I know I have! I wish I could some how see my
granddaughter Sami and my daughter Jamye one day
soon. Maybe God willing a way will present itself to
me. I also miss my mom tons as well as many of my
friends. It’s been so long since I have seen anybody
that I feel like everyone might of forgotten me by now.
I’m sure God is in control and on top of the issues
at hand. Many times you might think that He isn’t
listening, but He is. He hears our prayers and He
answers them the way He knows best. Let not your
prayers to be on shallow things. Now with that said
I guess it’s time for me once again to revisit that lil
place of my recollection through 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 that I like to
call RECOLLECT VILLE. I believe I might have
found a good title, but yet then the proof is in the
pudding hehehehe. Here goes!

You Might Think

Sudden times
you might think
life is bad
as you just sink.
You might find
that in those views
God’s Own Son
is in your shoes.
You might think
that now and then
is just filled
with hate and sin.
Yet sometimes
we see ahead
are confused
with our own dread.
Let Lord Jesus
show you true
how to make a
better you.
Sudden times
you find each day
you might think
they’re only grey.
Yet so often
what we see
is just only
our degree.

Ok so I hope you understood that poem hehehe. Also I
hope I didn’t lose you in my rambling. There isn’t much
else to say other than the usual hehehe, being I’m tired
and I’m having to type blindly now. My right eye has
faded and can barely see anything at all now hehehehe.
Yet, I will finish this and later today get Judy to help me
edit out the typo’s which I’m sure that there are many.
So onwards with my regular stuff telling you what all
I wrote this week or in this case a few hours ago hehe.
I wrote once again 10 poems with one of them being a
Christmas poem. Also I wrote once again 22 haiku
for of my haiku lovers out there. I hope some of what
I’ve written finds a way inside your heart. Now it’s time
for me to be searching for that off switch, but not before
I wish you a most blessed God filled week. Remember,
Jesus loves you and we do too. Now to find that silly
off switch that loves to elude me. LOL it don’t have
to hide this time. I can’t see it. So grabbing in the
dark I found it. Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Find Your Today’s

Today is a vision
seen in the night
found in a moments
dawning of light.
Time in a nutshell
could become stale
if you let minutes
lose their detail.
Today’s full of chances
found in a frame
sometimes as pages
that we attain.
Sometimes the minutes
pass as a breeze
blowing and going
a life full of trees.
Today marks a moment
that’s needing to pass
painting our minutes
as tomorrows green grass.
Find your today’s
as moments to view
as you do right now
the best you can do.

Winter’s Memories

A snowy winter
comes to view
from the moments
fresh and new.
Now some snowflakes
fall to Earth
from the clouds
of winters birth.
Time is printed
on the ground
where a snowman
might be found.
Scenic blessings
to and fro
are the shadows
white as snow.
Winter’s memories
find a place
seen each day
upon a face.
Children playing
with delight
when the snowflakes
come in sight.
This is winters
special time
painted with
it’s own design.

Learn Forgiveness

Sudden times
come to view
with the things
we say and do.
Suddenly
what all we’ve done
turns to bullets
from a gun.
Often angers
sudden sight
builds a lonely
sadden night.
So if right now
suddenly
you are found
a sad degree.
Look beyond it
and see true
how your anger
tarnished you.
Learn forgiveness
now today
as you learn to
kneel and pray.
Let Lord Jesus
help you see
how right now
can better be.

A Christmas Setting

A Christmas setting
is seen from afar
as we are driving
our little red car.
There in the distance
a scene comes alive
on that great day
of our wintertime drive.
The snow was a falling
so blissfully found
as it was painting
each place on the ground.
A Christmas setting
in soon after dreams
was found with paintings
of Christmastimes scenes.
Smokestacks to billow
their flare in the sky
as they would glisten
the snowflakes that fly.
A simple setting
of Christmastimes day
brings alive memories
of so far away.

Approaching The North

When miles turn to minutes
that display pure white
it might mean surely
that Maine is in sight.
Approaching the north
with fervidness found
brings the conclusions
of New England’s town.
Soon as the glimmers
of snowflakes grow strong
you’ll know that you are
where you belong.
Approaching the north
with eyes all aglow
you’ll see the blessings
of wintertimes snow.
Soon you’ll see visions
of wintertimes dreams
when you see all of the
snowy white scenes.

Desires

With our desires
comes our emotions
displayed so often
as our wanting oceans.
Desires of the heart
will often be found
bringing us things
we don’t need around.
Often desires
are just but a fling
wanting a moment
or just a mere thing.
Make sure desires
of minutes times trail
don’t take you places
that lead you to Hell.
Let your desires
to be what that’s good
as you let Jesus
to show what you should.

Waves of Time

Like a rhythm
of a view
waves of time
beat so anew.
Rhythms flowing
here and there
in the minutes
none compare.
Many people
in the waves
are just splashing
in the days.
Waves of time
of thereunto
come now from
a sea of blue.
Many rhythms
beating strong
are the waves
of dusk to dawn.

Strategy

Like a gamer
many play
as they move on
day to day.
Using strategy
as they move
sought to win
and not to lose.
You might think that
they are true,
but so often
they play you.
Seek to clearly
see what’s found
with the people
now around.
Make sure they aren’t
just a lie
with strategic
do or die.
Let God show you
who’s for real
and you’ll see
what ones conceal.

Snow Trodden Phase

A mid morning day
with snow falling down
shows me some footprints
there on the ground.
Snow trodden moments
found in my view
tell me that someone
was thereunto.
Delivering packages
just inside our door
while they were melting
some snow on the floor.
The mail man of time
would make the great feat
what that he knew then
that I couldn’t meet.
Now time has changed
while leaving a view
sometimes the sight of
footprints brand new.
Yet my own footprints
of snow trodden phase
sometimes are stepping
on many snow days.

Summers Twilight

Looking for summer
I see in my mind
scenes recreated
for my eyes to find.
In summers twilight
the stories are heard
that of the sound
of a little song bird.
Deep in the twilight
the echoes are found
as that of summer
that does so astound.
Summertime’s dreams
of twilight on stage
brings me the scenes
of a turning of page.
With summers twilight
comes many designs
displayed as moments
of sweet summertimes.

Haiku
for Feb 12, 2012

Sometimes a journey
is nothing more than lessons
you’re needing to learn.

Often a painting
will not be seen correctly
and the view is missed.

Stories rewritten
might lose someone’s perception
and turn to fiction.

Scenes found in the snow
bring many chances to dream
as each snowflake falls.

Someone’s own shadow
could bring them their own demise
for it shows the truth.

Looking for heartbeats
needs be done in the right light,
for darkness will hide.

Winters snowy days
are as glimmers of blessings
so heavenly white.

Today is a chance
begun by a mere moment
that time moves along.

Learning a lesson
might come from many follies
that you’ll remember.

Looking in hindsight
could find you many regrets,
so look for the good.

When anger flares up
make time to rekindle peace
through some quiet time.

When looking upwards
you might miss what God has done
right in front of you.

A snowflake flower
will melt as the seasons change
leaving a puddle.

All the distant trees
are magic in the sunlight
as they each glisten.

Tomorrows shadows
are designed by now today
as repercussions.

The snow will be gone
as the weather gets warmer
and then comes springtime.

With significance
comes the truth of a moment
and its point in time.

Left field perception
might display much confusion
through hurried learning.

Right now is a time
that gives chances to do things,
so make good your time.

Looking for answers
might find opportunities
that might not be good.

Let today prosper
with the seasons that flourish
as paintings of time.

Yearning for true love
can cause you much destruction
if you look blindly.
