ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

Well, I have returned once again with my rambling and
once again on the confounded computer hehehehehe.
It’s getting better, but I still haven’t found a way to get
any stationery to work in this Windows Live Email, but
I haven’t given up. I’ll find a way, but until then I will be
panning a few pictures horizontally and put them at the
end of the journal. I might even pan a few and put them
at the very end of the poetry beneath the links. So in any
sense, those of you that are receiving my emails in my
stationery format, will see them. All others, will remain
the same as usual other than a different font hehehehe.
I figured I’d give the Arial font a go. I had been using the
Times New Roman. Oh well, as long as ya can read it.
So, what’s been going on in your part of the world?
It snowed some more snow. Wednesday evening it all
began again and we got around 16 inches or so. Yep,
the car got buried once again LOL. Benny and Milo
had some trouble getting down the steps to go potty
with the steps being totally covered with snow and
it being deeper than their little legs LOL. I ended up
going outside and shoveling them a little path so they
could go potty where our landlord had plowed. They
were happy about that . So what else has gone on
around here? Hmmm good question! Well Friday my
friend Steve Broschat came by and we jammed for
about 30 minutes or so. Judy and I are making plans
for driving down to Bangor one day soon and me and
him make some more music videos. This Friday we
were just goofing around with a few songs we had
never done LOL. I did two videos of us, but I could
of done one more if I had thought ahead of time LOL.
Oh well, we had a blast. Judy and Steve’s friend
enjoyed the music. His friend brought her little 3 year
old boy and he had fun playing with all of the doggy
toys and also playing with Benny. Milo isn’t as
playful as Benny. He’s an old dude like me LOL.
It’s been getting warmer up here very gradually,
but gradual is better than not at all. It’s 41 F degrees
right now at 5:00 PM. It was supposed to only get
up to 39 F . Tonight’s supposed to get down to
28 F degrees. Not bad for up here. Last year it was
pretty much the same. I will never forget how Benny
reacted to the snow. He absolutely loved to play in
it hehehe pretty much the same as now LOL. We
can never get him to come in immediately. He’ll
stay out playing in it until he gets too cold and has
snow and ice hanging off of his hair LOL. I usually
spend a long while brushing all of the snow and
ice off of him . Right now both Benny and Milo
are lying in their doggie beds beside Judy and
I. They have doggie beds in here as well as in our
bedroom. It’s a bit hazy outside right now, but no
sign of snow clouds, at least not at this moment.
I had to search the house to find a keyboard I could
use on this PC. It was not compatible with my old
keyboard. I did find one I bought years ago that
this confounded Windows 8 recognized LOL and
so I am back to typing without having to always look
to locate the keys. Being blind in sorts, I have 3
pair of glasses I have to use. One for when I need
to read and be able to see in the distance, One for
when Judy and I watch TV in bed and One for my
PC which is only good at the distance from the
monitor to me. Not good for the keyboard, being
it’s at a different distance. I only have one eye
that I can use and it tires quickly due to my health
issues, so I must rely quite often on my memory.
LOL, fun, fun, fun! Yeppers, it’s a miracle that
I’m able to do what I do. I do try to enjoy life as
much as I can. I still try to get outside time to
time and play with the boys, but it’s limited to
my energy . Benny runs circles around me .
Milo not so much hehehe! He’s an old dog like
me . Well, there’s not much else to report
from up here at the Pearce’s Place. Although
we have taken a break from Farm Town until
I can get Judy’s PC running faster. Right now
it is way too slow, being it only has 448 MB RAM.
I might try and add some memory to it this week,
if her other memory chips are compatible and
my eyesight holds out. We shall see. In the
mean time, we still watch all of our favorite TV
programs and play with the boys. Speaking
of the boys, they need to be fed, so either I’ve
gotta hurry and finish my rambling or Judy’s
gonna have to feed em. It looks like all of their
water containers are getting low also hehehehe.
Milo still drinks like a horse. LOL he sticks his
whole face into the water bowl and ends up
with water dripping from his neck hehehehe.
He’s a slight silly. Judy and I know that the
moment he finishes drinking, he’ll be heard
scratching at the door wanting to go outside
and get rid of all of that water . This house
has been blessed by God. We’ve found the
joy of these two little boys/dogs as they give
us their love unending. Have you found the
joy of God’s love? Can you see the blessings
that God has given you? If not, then take a
good look around. Look passed your wanting’s
and see what needs have been met. Often we
are blinded by what we think that God should
do and not seeing what He has done that He
knew was best. The past holds answers to
our prayers. We’ve prayed for things and not
realized that often God will allow you to have
those things just to give you a lesson in life.
He doesn’t give you bad things. He just allows
you have the experiences that He believes are
necessary to make you stronger and show
you the path to Him. We all have struggles as
we walk in our daily lives. Some might seem
worse than others, but at the time each one
seemed the worst. Find the joy of a sunrise
decorated with a few clouds. See the smiles
that others have and let them infect you as
you also learn to smile. Learn to find laughter
in the silly things that you’ve done in the past.
Don’t just live in regret. Ok with that said, I
reckon it’s time for me to be taking my little
venture back 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 of
my recollection that I like to call RECOLLECT
VILLE. I believe I may have stumbled upon
a decent title, but the proof is in the pudding
so they say . Here goes!

Look Passed

Timeless excursions
that didn’t last
are sometimes what we
now just look passed.
Don’t let your journeys
become just viewed
that of a timeframe
you misconstrued.
Look passed the sadness
and find the joy
found unexpected
that life did deploy.
Let not your worries
of yesterdays gain
become a porthole
that’s found just insane.
Look passed your problems
and see what you’ve learned
that now today is
clearly discerned.
Find all the blessings
in God’s Own contrast
as all your misery’s
learned to look passed.

So, how was that? LOL I know, it wasn’t that great.
Hey, what do ya expect . I’m only human hehehe
or so some say. Of course many will argue the point
of whether I’m human or not LOL. I know, I look like
a dog . Ok so what else do I need to tell you. Oh
yea, I just got off the phone with my mom just a bit
ago and she said DD is seeming to be doing a little
better. Keep him in your prayers. My moms PC is
acting up. I told her to call up our good friends Ron
and Mandy at Century Computer and they’ll fix it.
I wish I were nearer and I might be of better help to
my mom, but that’s life. So, now I reckon it’s time
for me to be telling ya what I tell ya every week and
that is, I wrote some more poems and haiku. Yep,
10 more poems with 2 of them being Christmassy
poems. I also once again wrote 22 haiku for all of
the haiku lovers out there. With that said, I guess
it’s time for me to begin my search for that elusive
off switch, but not before I wish you a wonderful
God filled week. Remember, Jesus loves you
and we do too. Now with my diminished eyesight
I need to find that confounded off switch. My eyes
have almost gone blind and can barely see my
monitor much less my keyboard or anything else,
so that off switch has a good chance of hiding
from me this week LOL. Yet, he is a noisy dude
trying to imitate a dog barking. LOL good try.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehe

Having Struggles

When our values
become shallow
we need search for
what that’s hallow.
Not just letting
greed to win
having struggles
seeking sin.
When your window’s
pain applied
let Lord Jesus
come inside
Don’t let minutes
steal your life
having struggles
filled with strife.
Moments thresholds
might be seen
as a nightmare,
not a dream.
Having struggles
can repair
if you’ll take time
for a prayer.

Climbing Mountains

Hills and valleys
many climb
with their daily
time to time.
Climbing mountains
many see
sights and sounds
they don’t agree.
Often journeys
we are found
are with echoes
sight and sound.
Just reminding
all we’ve done
time to time
and one by one.
Climbing mountains
can be bright
if we’ll seek for
what that’s right.
Not allowing
wants and needs
to become
our troubled seeds.
Let your journeys
daily fountains
be as needed
climbing mountains.
Seek for what God
wants for you
in the things
you say and do.

Snow Filled Dreams

With the mornings
own arrival
snowflakes fall
and seek survival.
Winters windows
through and through
show what surely
they can do.
Snow filled dreams
with winds that blow
decorating
to and fro.
Scenes are portrayed
as a dream
with ice on
a rushing stream.
Snow filled dreams
that fall and lay
decorate
my day to day.
Glimmers of all
that I see
snow filled dreams.
are given free.
Now these snowflakes
soon will melt
while I thank God
as I’m knelt.
Seeing truly
all that’s done
snow filled dreams
from God’s own Son.

As We Pray

Times believing
day to day
will be better
as we pray.
Although troubles
will find you,
God will surely
help you through.
As we pray for
things to be
we might find a
troubled sea.
Yet those troubles
that you found,
might just lead
to solid ground.
Minutes prosper
what might seem
as a timeframe
that you scream.
Yet those minutes
that ticked on
might of strengthened
brand new dawn.
So if right now
seems too bad
just remember
all you’ve had.
We’ve survived
another day
filled with blessings
as we pray.

I Now Recall

The timeframes through winter,
spring, summer and fall
remind me of beauty
which I now recall.
Scenes all a blossom
so differently too
creating most surely
a wonderful view.
I now recall all
that I’ve surely seen
such as an ice covered
fast running stream.
I recall flowers
that springtime portrayed
with all the blossoms
so Heavenly made.
I now remember
the colors of fall
scented as flavors
that I now recall.
Even with summertime
I can be found
out with my camera
just looking around.

I Think Of Christmas

While December shadows
are found as a thought
I think of Christmas
a little a lot.
While all those snowflakes
might soon melt away
I think of Christmas
each wonderful day.
All the decorations
from here to afar
are as the journeys
in our little car.
I think of Christmas
when even in June
and often listen to
a Christmassy tune.
I see the blessings
of Christmastimes gaze
while I think of Christmas
upon future days.
I often see some
lights still aglow
hanging in March then
covered with snow.
Some even lit up
and shining so bright
reminding of Christmastime
each day and night.

Labels On People

So many judge us
by what they see
and do not chance
to know you and me.
Often ones labels
are just from the past
as but a moment
of a shadowy cast.
Links to the minutes
of which we have done
many will see as
times only one.
Labels on people
can become pain
while they but only
drive ones insane.
Let all the labels
to melt from your sight
seeking but only
what that is right.

A Forest of Snow

Out through our windows
a forest of snow
glistens on tree limbs
trying to grow.
Snowflakes are falling
landing in place
upon the glimmers
of mornings embrace.
A forest of snow
is seen from afar
as a reflection of
a near snowy star.
Even the meadows
of white that I see
glimmer of snowflakes
given for free.
Each little snowflake
that times now bestow
displays most surely
as a forest of snow.

A Winter Wonderland

While many see only
a time not so grand
others like me see
a winter wonderland.
Times filled with blessings
that comes after fall
as many snowflakes
land one and all.
A winter wonderland
comes surely in sight
creating the thoughts of
Christmas delight.
Then as the minutes
and days pass along,
I find I’m singing
a Christmassy song.
Hearts filled with joy
and stood hand in hand
Christmastime starts
as a winter wonderland.

The Fragrance of Spring

Now as the snow is
melting away
the fragrance of spring
is seeking display.
Yet many snowflakes
still fall down and land
preventing the springtime
coming so grand.
I seek the fragrance
of spring to arrive
bringing the flowers
and trees all alive.
I miss the chirping
of sweet birds that sing
along with the scent of
the fragrance of spring.
Yes of course surely
I truly love snow,
but I am ready
for springtime’s bestow.

Haiku
for Mar 23, 2013

I seem as chew toys
through the eyes of a puppy
and it does get old.

When time moves along
it often leaves memories
hidden in seconds.

Tomorrows journey
starts with one step at a time
beginning today.

A ship out at sea
rides waves as a bull rider
while tossing about.

Remembering moments
often will bring them alive
within photographs.

Some silly people
are only acting that way
to make others smile.

Looking at thresholds
might not fully show the truth
of which that’s inside.

Finding a flower
that’s been hidden all winter
might need some patience.

Often our true love
can be found when not sought for,
while God shows you true.

Blessings can be found
in the tiniest of things
and become the best.

When troubles blossom
the answers are in Jesus
as He knows what’s best.

When a puppy smiles
it brings alive a heartbeat
found in the owner.

Meaningful people
come and go from time to time
that we may not see.

Borderline trying
leaves many upon the fence
not giving their all.

Gradient turnstiles
will often weather away
as time goes it course.

The seeds of flowers
fall upon many places
not near their birth place.

A shallow thinker
will only see ones clothing
and not who they are.

Bringing alive time
that has since passed long ago
could cause you problems.

Trivial problems
can turn into hurricanes
if you allow them.

Morning brings sunshine
often hidden behind clouds
that may have some rain.

Leading a blind man
needs knowledge where you’re going
and how you can help.

Believing in love
and knowing how you’re to love
can bring you true love.

Animal’s Greetings

Hello my friends

Yes it’s me again running late. The reason being is because my old
PC started causing too many problems trying to send email and I’m
going to have to send it to my computer friends in Greenville Texas
to maybe get it repaired. If he can’t then I’ll either have them make
external drives out of the hard drives or reformat the drives and put
Windows XP back on them. I have the software. In any sense, as
you might notice by the look of my stationery or lack there of hehehe,
that I had to buy a new PC and it has &^%^& Windows 8 on it with
Windows Live Mail 2012 on it which reminds me of the old style of
email from back in the freaking 90’s LOL. I has NO stationery at all
and no way to put one on it, or at least I haven’t figured out a way
to do it yet hehehe. In any sense, I am continuing on. Hmmmmm,
so what should I begin talking about? Well ya already know about
my bickers with this PC LOL. So I’ll start with, it was ccccccccold
yesterday and last night. The high for Sunday was 8 F degrees and
today it got up to around 24. Right now it’s 20 F and it seems we’re
due some more snow. It had almost all washed away due to all of
the rains last week, but we might be turning white again hehehehe.
It was getting nice not going snow blind every time I looked out
the front door . So what else is going on? Benny and Milo went
to the vet last Wednesday and they are both in great health aside
from Milo’s arthritis hehehe. He’s like his dad. Aches and pains,
but that’s part of life. Milo is the same age as Judy and I ya know.
Yeppers, he’s 8 years old, but older in dog years. It’s been an
icebox in this house the last couple days and nights. We ran out
of heating oil a month or so ago and due to all of our problems
such as the car costing us $448 to get inspected we couldn’t
afford to buy heating oil. Oh well, we have three little radiator
heaters that work fairly well, but last night it was impossible to
get the house warm using them LOL. Yep, and with us using
them our electric bill was $308 and will most assuredly be close
to the same next month LOL. That’s life! So if ya think that
being a Christian means everything will be rosy, think again.
It only means Satan will hit you harder, but you have Jesus
to go into battle with you and gather strength from. I know our
problems aren’t nothing compared to many, but it’s the owner
of the problems that discerns how large they may feel. Benny
and Milo are outside right now cause they had to potty hehehe.
I bet they’re ready to come in brrrrrrrrrrr I just let them in.
They were on the top steps and Milo was barking hehehe let
us in. Right now at 10:13 it’s 14 F degrees. Judy and I are
watching Top Gear on BBC. Those guys are funny . Benny
was just barking thinking somebody was at the front door LOL.
I had to open the door and show him that there is nobody out
there hehehe. Now he’s in the PC room with us. Milo has
been lying around on the floor in here. This is the warmest
room of the house . So what else is going on around this
place? Well as I said before, we’re expecting more snow.
Around a foot or so! Yes we are boring LOL. Hey, there
isn’t much to do up here in the boonies. God gives us things
to keep us entertained such as writing, photography and
playing with our boys. We do have our share of problems,
but God helps us through. If you’re having struggles that
are wearing on you, then give it to Jesus. He’ll give you
the strength to pull through. There’s nothing too big for
Jesus. Once again I ask for prayers for my brother in law
DD. He is still hanging in there, but in much pain and
my sister Peggy is really worried about him. She knows
that God is in control, but we never want to see our loved
ones to suffer. I love you Peggy. Keep the faith. Now
with that said, I reckon it’s time once again for me to
begin my little journey back through all that I’ve written
here to see if I can find a good word or phrase that will
maybe work well for the title for today’s brand new poem.
And with that said, I’m off to that little place of my
recollection that I like to call RECOLLECT VILLE.
I think I may have stumbled on a good title. Now let’s
see what I can do with it . Here’s goes…….

Keep Us Entertained

Minutes tick on
time attained
while times keep us
entertained.
Life might seem to
fall apart,
but there’s always
new to start.
Finding flavors
in each day
needs us sometimes
just to pray.
Not just finding
times so bleak,
but yet finding
life to seek.
Let Lord Jesus
be attained
while times keep us
entertained.

So, there ya go. I hope you enjoyed the poem and all of my
rambling hehehe. We’re watching Gizmodo: The gadget testers
now. It’s a new series on BBC. So far we’re enjoying it, but
time will tell. It’s 11 F degrees now. Getting colder hehehehe.
I’ll be glad when it starts warming up. I guess it’s time for me
to tell you what I tell you every week and that is, I wrote some
more poems and haiku. Yeppers, I wrote 10 more poems with
2 of them being of the Christmassy sort. I also wrote 22 more
haiku for all of the haiku lovers out there. Yes I wrote them
all today “Monday”. LOL on Gizmodo, their running weird
test on vacuums. Vacuuming up a chicken coop hehehe or at
least attempting to LOL. So with that said I need to begin
my search for that illusive off switch, but not before I wish you
a most wonderful God filled week. Remember, Jesus loves
you and we do too. Now to find that off switch. I see ya you
silly contraption. Hiding behind the TV won’t work with ya
always popping your head up to see if I’m looking hehehehe.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehe

Through Our Lives

Things we’ve seen
and things we’ve found
might one day
come back around.
Through our lives
are mysteries
here and there
through living seas.
Time might echo
all we’ve seen
as a fragrance
of a dream.
Moments journeys
might befall
things we somehow
now recall.
Through our lives
of here and there
we might find
an answered prayer.
Yet those prayers
of which we find,
might not be
the best of time.
So be careful
what we pray
through our lives
of day to day.
Let your prayers
to be your needs
then they’ll plant
as Jesus seeds.

Jumbled Hearts

Winters windows
open wide
often bringing
snow inside.
Jumbled hearts then
find the view
best to see
each day anew.
Jumbled Heartbeats
find a rhythm
beating as
true love within.
When connected
to each sight
jumbled hearts
beat day and night.
Scenes of winter
become found
as two heartbeats
sight and sound.
It is where
those two unfold
that their hearts
are stories told.
Blissful blessings
time imparts
as the sight of
jumbled hearts.

Morning’s Coming

Night is closing
it’s surmise
morning’s coming
cloudy skies.
Soon the clouds will
fade away
leaving sight of
sunny day.
Morning’s coming
with its sights
that is after
darkest nights.
Winters threshold
is in bloom
even as March
snows illume.
Morning’s coming

dissipate.
Seasons shadows
open wide
morning’s coming

Each new moment

Christmas Comes

When our lifestyles
become void
of what Christmas
is enjoyed,
every moment
we remember
becomes only
just an ember.
Things we’ve let
to fall away
as the joys
of Christmas day.
Every heartbeat
time bestows
should be great
as Christmas grows.
Letting no one
ever killing
what Lord Jesus
is fulfilling.
Christmas comes
with stars aglow
sometimes found
in whitest snow.
Even where snow
doesn’t fall
Christmas comes
for one and all.

Somewhere When

While tomorrow
comes in tune
somewhere when
is coming soon.
It brings chances
found today
as tomorrow
goes its way.
Soon those choices
that you chose
will be what that
time bestows.
Somewhere when
in pages turned
you’ll find time
that you discerned.
All of those moments
there and then
will be answers
somewhere when.

Newer Dreams

Days we’ve wandered
with our minds
newer dreams
are greater finds.

Things we’ve thought of
dreamt of too
often bring a
different view.
Moments prayed for
newer dreams
can then bring us
rushing streams.
All the sights of
pacing feet
leave an echo
times accrete.
Newer dreams
that we have dreamt
might soon be
where all we went.

Winters Parlay

The sights and sounds
of wintertime
bring a snowy
white design.
In this northern
place I live
God brings sights
to daily give.
Winters parlay
is often found
with the sights
that do astound.
When beginning
wintertime
there are sights
I surely find.
Scenes are found
so great each day
that are known
winters parlay.

Meaningless Squabble

Heated discussions
with meaningless squabble
often turn into
some heads found to bobble.
Squawking of different
opinions each day
heated discussions
will often go grey.
Don’t let your difference
of thinking to show
that you’re not willing to
daily to grow.
Meaningless squabble
can just tear apart
all of your blessings
God gave to your heart.
Let not your difference
of thought to portray
that you’re too stubborn
to learn a new way.

A Christmas Type Mind

Sometimes we wander with
so faraway
and forget blessings of
that special day.
The things that so many
will just fail to see
leave them just saying
what will be will be.
A Christmas type mind
brings glimmers of hope
found as the blessings
helping to cope.
The Christmas type mind
will always remember
everything greatest
that’s found in December.
The celebrated birthday
of God’s Own Son
is with us always
with all He’s done.
A Christmas type mind
will never forget
all of the blessings
from God’s silhouette.

Beyond A Thought

Without any actions
a thought cannot be
something you’ve ventured for
daily to see.
Beyond a thought
is something to find
things that we see
with movement of mind.
If you have let your
thinking to blossom
into what’s surely
something ill-gotten,
then you will surely
one day regret
what all you thought of
that’s now heavyset.
Don’t let your thinking
to put you in trouble,
because without Jesus
it could become double.

Haiku
for Mar 18, 2013

Too many people
leave their conscience with Satan
and end up in Hell.

A troublesome time
might find ways of repeating
if you did not learn.

Living in a dream
could turn into a nightmare
if you don’t wake up.

When winter winds blow
they cut through just like a knife
and chill to the bone.

A wrongful sentence
could make bad of a moment
that you could of saved.

Yearning for passion
often leads ones to trouble
due to bad choices.

The weather of now
brings glimmers of tomorrow
found as time moves on.

Entering today
needs release of yesterday,
so let then have rest.

Pondering your thoughts
leaves an open mind to see
what all you can do.

Many a flower
finds refuge under the snow
while waiting for spring.

A desert flower
seeks waters under the ground
to nourish itself.

Bad dispositions
leave memories in others
that take time to fade.

A doorway through time
makes itself known to many
as choices to make.

Tomorrow holds dreams
that we can give to Jesus
for Him to do best.

Holding too tightly
to somebody that you love
could cause them to leave.

Meandering thoughts
can become a winding road
leading to nowhere.

Our follies of time
can become greater lessons
if we allow them.

Knowing what’s the best
can often be drowned by wants
that we know are bad.

Loss of a loved one
leaves a heart with a big hole
only time can fill.

Fishing for answers
could find a bottomless lake
with thoughts out of reach.

The grand illusions
of our daily walks of life
might end in despair.

Living for Jesus
needs a truly opened mind
in what He has planned.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

So how are ya doing? We’re doing pretty well. We got
our car inspected and all last week. It cost us 445 dollars.
Needed tires and a muffler hehe. Oh well, now we’re set
for another year, but it’s well overdue for an oil change,
so that’s next. The weather’s warming up just a little bit.
Right now it’s 37F degrees with a high today supposed to
be around 39F. The temperatures are supposed to bounce
around from the 40’s to the lower 30’s LOL. All of this
snow might melt away, but only time will tell. It would
be nice to be able to look outside without having to put
on sunshades to keep from going snow blind hehehehehe.
Benny and Milo are in here with me now sleeping in the
their beds right beside me. I tried sneaking in here and
just letting them sleep in the bedroom with Judy. They
were in their doggie beds in there, but it seems they saw
me get up and come in here and began scratching at the
door for me to let them in LOL, so I have my audience.
It’s bright and sunny today. We might get a little rain
sometime this week, but I’m guessing not much. It may
rain Tuesday and Wednesday with a chance of snow for
Wednesday night. Oh well, this is Maine. I never hold
my breath for the forecast to happen being they are just
mere guesses on what it will do. All of the clouds could
just dissipate or even collect and build to more than they
were forecasting. I always just try to be ready for what
ever happens. Benny and Milo were scratching at the
door again, but this time because they needed to go out,
so I put them outside to go potty. They are both so silly.
Well as I strolled through the bedroom to the living room
I noticed that Judy’s eyes were opened. She might join
me in here in a bit. I’ll let her do the honors of letting
the boys back in when they’re ready hehehehe. Judy’s
PC finally kicked the bucket, so I got her old one out
and updated all the files on it and hooked it up for her
to use. It’s slow, but it works. I might though see if
the RAM chips from her dead PC are compatible with
this one. They are both HP’s. If they are then I will
interchange them. She only 448 MB RAM on this
one and 1 GB on her dead PC. I believe her power
supply went out along with a few bad fragments in her
hard drive. We’ll get it repaired one day when we can
afford it, but hopefully her old PC will work for her
until then and maybe even a bit faster if I can change
out the RAM chips. One day I might also buy her a
faster video card which will also speed up her PC a bit.
I’ve tried just about every thing else from changing
her PC memory advanced performance settings to
ceasing as many none essential programs from being
loaded and running in the back ground. So, time will
tell if I can interchange the RAM chips. but for now,
it works, just slowly hehehe. Now it’s off of the PC
related talk hehehe being I’m sure that many of you
have no clue of what I’m talking about hehehehehe.
Hey, I’m a geek and proud of it 🙂 I guess I need to
see if Benny and Milo are needing to come back in,
but hey, it’s a pretty day and not all that cold, so
they can stay outside for a while. LOL, speak of
the devils, Judy heard them barking saying they
were ready to come in and she went and let them in.
Now Judy along with the boys are in here. Benny
and Milo are so excited to have us both up that they
are dancing around the house hehehe. I set Judy’s
PC for a repair with her ASC to check for errors
and slow downs. I figured I would do mine also so
I’ve got mine running also LOL. It slows down my
PC a tad while doing it, but I think I can continue
to type hehehe. Judy and I are planning on getting
back to playing our hidden object games, being her
PC at the moment doesn’t do Farm Town too well.
She might do hers on my PC time to time, but it’s
a big headache doing it on hers being it’s so slow.
Anyways, her and I are ready to watch all of our
TV programs tonight. Hehehe Finding Bigfoot
and the Gator Boys. Also we like to watch The
Family Feud and Baggage 🙂 hehehe and even
a little Robot Chicken LOL. Yes we are weird,
but that’s what makes it so great. We’re both the
same way 🙂 God found two people in different
parts of the world and put them together to make
them whole. Judy lived up here in Maine near
where we live now and I lived in Texas 2100 miles
away. Never underestimate the power of God
and what all He can do. If you are sitting at home
sad because your life is not like others, then look
to see what blessings you might be missing. We
all have our unique gifts and blessings. Friends
are a great blessing. Treat them well and never
take them for granted. Now that I have gone
and rambled once again, I think it’s time for me
to be taking my little trip back 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 of my recollection that I always like to
call RECOLLECT VILLE. I think I may have
found a good title, but we shall see huh hehehe.
Here goes…..

Never Underestimate

When life throws you troubles
don’t just sit and cry.
Search for the answers
that God does apply.
Never underestimate
what God can do
when life throws you troubles
to show you brand new.
When time seems none ending
with moments you see,
let God to help you
be all you can be.
Learn to find a smile
even when you are sad
and you might find one
you already had.
Look passed the turmoil
that now does expose,
because it’s just a moment
of times to and fro’s.
Never underestimate
what God can do
to make your life brighter
and happier too.

Well there ya go! I hope that was good enough for
ya. LOL Benny is lying with his head as close as he
can get to me. I’m afraid I’m going to roll over him
with my chair. Move it over there little guy 🙂 Well
I’ll just have to be careful huh hehehe. Before I find
an ending to my rambling mind, I need to ask for you
to continue to pray for my brother in law DD. He’s
under a lot of pain and stress as Chemo treatments
continue. My sister is trying to hang in there, but
she is having a tough go of it. I know she is worried
sick. So keep DD and Peggy in your prayers. Now
I think I need to be telling ya what I tell ya every
week and that is, I wrote some more poems and
haiku. Yeppers, 10 more poems, but this time
with 3 of them being Christmas poems 🙂 I also
once again wrote 22 more haiku for all my haiku
lovers out there. I hope you enjoyed my rambling
and maybe even enjoyed the poem I wrote as well
as enjoy the poems and haiku. Don’t let life get
you down, for this too shall pass. Now it’s time
for me to be searching for that confounded off
switch, but not before I wish you a most blessed
and God filled week. Remember, Jesus loves
you and we do too. So where is that freaking
off switch hiding now hehehehehe. Ok, I see ya
with your little head sticking up from behind
Milo our snoring pooch hehehehehehehehehe 🙂
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Minutes Pass

Ticking seconds
minutes pass
sometimes seeming
way to fast.
Moments finding
scenes to see
that soon are
our history.
Minutes pass
as days are seen
sometimes as a
rushing stream.
Things envisioned
that are found
minutes pass
as sight and sound.
Soon those minutes
that we find
become passing
time to time.

Winter Will End

Soon as the doorways
to wintertime’s snow
become as rivers
that springtime will flow
there will be pages
of scenes yet to turn
that winter will find
for us to discern.
Wintertime’s shadows
will melt all away
leaving but only
a springtime display.
Winter will end
as snow dissipates
bringing in what
springtime calculates.
Soon all the flowers
will bloom once agin
with the display
that winter will end.

Right Now Is Done

With our mistakes
that time has portrayed
right now is done
with messes we’ve made.
Yet our tomorrows
from now and today
can become better
if we’ll kneel and pray.
Letting Lord Jesus
to guide what you do
will help you find
a much better view.
Right now is done
for time moves along
so don’t let sadness
to live in what’s gone.
Yesterdays ventures
are lessons to count
as that of moments
right now can surmount.
Use all those lessons
to be better found
when your tomorrows
of time come around.

Just But A Thought

A simple timeframe
that we find
might just be
a thought in time.
Often our thinking
is just sought
as we seek just
but a thought.
A dreamer dreaming
things to see
could become
a mind set free.
Just but a thought
of time to time
could become
a dreamers mind.
Searched as ventures
that are sought
some dreams are
just but a thought.

Christmas Past

As soon as the years
all just move along
the Christmas past
will echo its song.
Scenes we remember
will become just a view
living as the pages
of then thereunto.
All of the scenes that
Christmas bestows
will become stages
remembered as snows.
Flavored as wintertime
found as a page
turned as a memory
Christmas of age.
All of those moments
our childhoods have cast
can become blessings
from our Christmas past.

Dawning A Smile

When you are saddened
from something in time
seek for a blessing
with smiling design.
The frown that you had
might then fade away
leaving you seeing
a much better day.
Don’t let a frown
to become your view
Find a big smile
that’s living in you.
Times can be rough
for surely I know,
but dawning a smile
makes happiness grow.
Let not your worries
to live all the while.
Find you some strength
by dawning a smile.

Counting Ahead

Now as I stumble
with my human ways
I’m counting ahead
to Heavenly days.
Though I’m imperfect
my Lord died for me
so that I’d one day
be found Heavenly.
Seeing my loved ones
and friends that have gone
I’m counting ahead now
to that perfect dawn.
Minutes have gathered
as my days complete
and soon I’ll be standing
at Lord Jesus Feet.
Then within Heaven
I’ll be made as whole
because my dear Savoir
has saved my soul.

Seasons Delight

Mornings arrival
brings us a sight
sometimes of Christmas
seasons delight.
Even when time has
just moved along
the seasons delight
still lives within dawn.
Found as our heartbeats
of seasonal frames
the seasons delight
has many acclaims.
That of Lord Jesus
and His sight and sound
the seasons delight
is always around.
It can live always
inside me and you
as we keep Jesus
in all that we do.
Christmastimes blessings
can live day and night
if we will keep them
as seasons delight.

Believing In Love

Living in shadows
of yesterdays time
could become troubles
with right nows design.
True love is out there,
but often hid well
behind what we’re wanting
as our lives compel.
Often we’re searching
for what that’s not real
and not accepting
what true life can feel.
Don’t let your ego
to look at the skin.
See all the beauty
that lives deep within.
Find all the blessings
from Heaven above
and you’ll be happy
believing in love.
God provides moments
for each of us true
to find many blessings
of love through and through.

Gleaming Christmas

With each and every story
of a Christmastime of day
we often feel the warmth of
the gleaming Christmas way.
A fireplace a burning
with some logs of hickory
and a tree all lit up
oh so sweet and Christmassy.
That gleaming Christmas morning
that is Children’s dreams at night
becomes all the stories
of old Santa Claus in flight.
The scent of candles burning
and the glitter of them too
becomes the gleaming Christmas
that so many wish to view.
That Christmas tree all lit up
with it’s decorations hung
just await those blessings
of Christmas songs we’ve sung.
Hearing all the Children
coming then to quickly see
all that Santa Claus had
put beneath the Tree.
The scents of Christmas morning
are what I remember well.
The gleaming Christmas tree
with a little jingle bell.

Haiku
for Mar 9, 2013

Today is a day
that yesterday knew not of,
but only a guess.

Signs of a heartbeat
could expose a hidden sight
that nobody knew.

When filled with sorrow
your future might seem darkened,
but this too shall pass.

Yearning for winter
could leave you wanting springtime
after you’ve frozen.

The flavor of love
is one that many will taste,
just differently.

Trivial problems
may often look much larger
than they really are.

When looking upwards
you might only see some clouds,
but blue skies are there.

Beyond a doorway
lives chances for tomorrow
sometimes in disguise.

Playing a fools game
could land you in much trouble.
Don’t live in folly.

Finding a dewdrop
when wintertime has faded
means springtime is near.

Only a rosebud
can become a perfect rose,
while weeds are still weeds.

So many might ask
how some live their lives for God
even with problems.

Life is a journey
that is often found as time
driven by heartbeats.

When today’s over
tomorrow holds some chances
for a better day.

While watching clouds
you might find a few pictures
designed in your mind.

Evidence of God
can be found all around us
in large things and small.

Confusion exist
in so many among us,
but it can be solved.

Seeking your answers
from an ignorant person
is blind leading blind.

Favoring a sore spot
could create a few others,
so take it easy.

With winters snowflakes
comes designs upon the ground
often as snowmen.

The gleam of morning
comes as wintertime’s sunshine
reflecting the snow.

Sad circumstances
can evolve better moments.
It just takes some time.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s another snowy day. Yet it’s a mixture of rain
and snow LOL. Right now it’s 39F degrees and it’s
snowing lightly off and on. I just let Benny back in.
He was playing in the snow as usual hehehe. Milo
was in here looking for him. I don’t think he knew
that Benny had gone outside 🙂 They are always
looking out for one another. Benny won’t come
inside until he is sure that Milo is in the house and
OK. Anyways, I got a late start on my poetry 🙂
and didn’t start writing it till a couple of hours ago.
I wasn’t feeling too well yesterday. I was having
trouble breathing once again. That’s my life LOL.
I have a case of emphysema that I acquired from
my many years of smoking. I quit smoking back in
1990 as also drinking, but the damage was done.
I am also an asthmatic with chronic bronchitis
so breathing is something I will always have a bit
of trouble doing. Oh well, I’ll survive until God
says that I have done all that He was wanting me
to do and he brings me home. I’ll tell ya what, I’ll
be happy when that day arrives 🙂 I do though enjoy
my time with Judy and the boys as well as all of my
many friends that I chat with time to time. I have
many friends that are just like family to me. I view
family as much more than blood. It’s the love and
compassion you have for one another that makes
us family. Hehehe our little dogs Benny and Milo
are much more than pets to Judy and I. They are
our little boys. There’s not much new to report from
our little home on the hill hehehe. We still do the
same as always LOL. Farming at Farm Town, and
watching our favorite TV programs. Yet we have
though sort of toned it down a tad on our farming
being Judy’s computer is needing a work over, but
for now we cannot afford it, so we just do farms
when she is able to keep her PC on. She has begun
saving all of her major info over to her external
hard drive so that if something happens, it’s safe.
Also we still have her old PC tower in the spare
room that I might soon put in place of this one
someday soon. It’s a got a slower processor in it,
but it should get her by until we can afford to fix
her messed up one. I believe it’s needing a new
power supply and possibly windows XP reinstalled,
but her PC didn’t come with a XP disk which is
a problem. Oh well, we’ll survive. We have in
the past used one PC and just took turns hehehe.
It’s 5 PM and getting a hazy dark outside. Also
the temp has dropped 2 degrees. It’s now 37 F.
Oh yea, my mom made Judy a beautiful scarf.
It’s Judy’s favorite color 🙂 PURPLE. I took
a few pictures of Judy wearing it, and she sent
one of them to my mom. Judy loves the scarf.
It goes with her purple coat 🙂 and most anything
else LOL. We’ve got to order us some more
heating oil hehehe. We’ve been out for well over
a week, but we have 3 radiator heaters that keep
the house fairly nice and being that we spend
most of our time in the PC room, we are always
warm due to the computer monitors putting out
heat hehehe. Of course the radiator heaters
do use a bit of electricity, but it’s better than
freezing LOL. They don’t use nearly as much
electricity as a forced air heater does. Our
last electric bill was around 220 dollars. UGH
is right, but we haven’t frozen and our pipes
haven’t frozen either. God’s always looking
out for us. Now if our lil car passes inspection
this week, that would be great. We’ve got the
new tags on it, but had to wait till I got my SSD
payment to do the inspection. LOL I had only
16 dollars left in my account. Judy had less than
that in hers 🙂 We’ll survive through the grace
of God. He makes sure we have what all we’re
needing. Yet often, our wants tend to get in
the way of our needs and we worry. So the
word today is PEACE. Let God do what He
does and just do your very best in life. Peace
will be found as we cease trying to get things
that we do not need. Ok, with that said I guess
it’s time for me to be scanning back through
all that I’ve written here to see if I can find 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 place of my recollection that I like
to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I believe I may
have found a good title. Now lets you and I
see if I’m able to put anything with it hehehe.
Here goes nothing hehehe….

Today is Peace

With the minutes
ticking true
you can find some
peace in you.
Today is peace
with hidden signs
often found with
God’s designs.
When you’re saddened
from a day
find some peaceful
when you pray.
Let not worries
engulf you
today is peace
awaiting view.
Scenes you’re seeking
for release
God can show
today is peace.
With the shadows
time to time
today is peace
for you to find.
Let your echoes
just be found
peaceful flavors
sight and sound.
Now this minute
can be seen
today is peace
within a dream.
So if worries
fill your mind
seek for peaceful
point and time.

Ok, so there ya go hehehe. It might not be one
of my best, but remember, I just got through
writing 10 poems and 22 haiku just a couple of
hours ago hehehehe. Talk about putting it all in
one bag LOL. I want to ask you all to continue
to keep my brother in law DD in your prayers.
He’s got a long road of recovery ahead of him.
The chemo is making him sicker as it always
does, but it’s the only way they can treat his
cancer, being it has spread so much. Keep my
sister Peggy in your prayers also, because she is
totally stressed out with worry about DD. She
sends me emails time to time to keep me up to
date, but I can tell through her grammar that
she is not thinking clearly with all that is going
on. So please, keep DD and Peggy in your
prayers. Now what else is left to ramble about?
Milo is lying behind me to the left and Benny
is lying behind me to the right hehehehehehe.
I just looked back at Benny and he was just
staring at me. Now he has laid his head back
down to go to sleep 🙂 I guess he knew that I
was talking about him LOL. Judy is playing
solitaire on her computer. I asked her who’s
winning and she said the computer as usual 🙂
Well, I reckon it’s about time for me to tell ya
what I tell ya every week and that is, I wrote
some more poems and haiku hehehe, but then
you already knew that being I told ya just a bit
ago huh LOL. So I guess I need to begin my
search for that confounded off switch that
loves to play hide and seek, but not before
I wish you a most wonderful God filled week.
Remember, Jesus loves you and we do too.
Now to find that off switch. LOL I see you
sticking your head out from behind my nose
spray hehehe. Ya need to find something
a bit bigger to hide behind ya silly thing LOL.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill ad Judy Pearce

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

Some Might See

The wintertime’s
of days ahead
some might see
as only dread.
Scenes of snowflakes
some might see
sometimes become
just sad debris.
Some might see
a brighter day
and some might see
sometimes dismay.
It’s the owner
of the sight
that determines
may or might.
Some might see
a day for sledding
and some might see
some trouble spreading.
So with that now
are you one
that sees winter
having fun,
or are you one
that just complains
whether it snows
or sleets or rains?

Little Trails

Out my window
I can see
little trails
in front of me.
Little footsteps
made those trails
with four legs
and wagging tails.
Out my window
in the snow
I see places
that trails go.
Here and there
and all around
little trails
of them are found.
Our two dogs
of brown and white
are with footsteps
found in sight.
Little trails

Having Fun

Winters snowflakes
fall with grace
sometimes landing
on my face.
Many days
I’m having fun
in the snow
with brightest sun.
Winters pages
turn in style
as they’re making
snowy tile.
Many rooftops
in my sight
seem with tiles
of snowy white.
Some are looking
they might fall
pouring snow
on one and all.
Yet I’m always
having fun
in the snow
and brightest sun.

To The Mailbox

On one snowy
day of time
to the mailbox
things to find.
Trudging through then
to and fro
in the deepest
whitest snow.
To the mailbox
there and to
my two dogs
were still in view.
Sitting waiting
my return
I could see their
hearts concern.
They were waiting
in their way
for me to then
come and play.
On this snowy
day of white
I took pictures
of this sight.

Lord God’s Design

Hearts of true passion
that many find
could be the essence of
Lord God’s design.
Yet sometimes people
only will see
all that they’re wanting
from you and me.
Lord God’s design
is a timeless detail
painting His pictures
so very well.
Yet many people
only will find
their own desires,
not Lord God’s design.
So are you seeking
truly His Grace,
or are you only
seeking a place?

Heartless People

When in a turnstile
of troubles a brewing
some heartless people
may be found just viewing.
Some people out there
only will come
if they get money
for what all they’ve done.
Yes heartless people
thrive and they breed
seeking but only
their daily greed.
Don’t let the heartless
to put out your fire
that is found truly
with Lord God’s desire.
Don’t become heartless
and end up in Hell.
Seek for Lord Jesus
in every detail.

A Lonely Man

A moment in time
becomes just a plan
often with wantings
saying I can.
Sometimes a lonely
man found in time
is but a mindset
within his mind.
I was once lonely
found wide awake
seeking but only
my times mistake.
Then I found truly
my own desires
brought to me troubles
raging as fires.
Now this lonely man
time has recorded
found out his wantings
were not afforded.
He found a pathway
past all the pain
leading to Jesus,
good to attain.
A moment in time
is just a memory
found as the lessons
from history.

Just A Fraction

Times with reaction
are just a fraction
sometimes a case of
times interaction.
Minutes we’ve counted
sometimes surmounted
are just confusion
that we’ve accounted.
Yes just a fraction
maybe abstraction
can become found
as a daily attraction.
Times that we’ve counted
might be astounded
yet filled will lies
of which we’ve abounded.
Now is your action
just your reaction
or but a moment found
as just a fraction?
Have you rebounded
all that you’ve counted
as lessons learned
that are keeping you grounded?

Heaven’s Gates

The sight of time
that fills our view
when we start
our lives anew
is but sometimes
as a dream
found beside
a rushing stream.
Heaven’s gates
will open wide
the sight of time
with God applied.
The river Jordan
rushes through
with the prayers
from me and you
and beside
that sight you see
will be found
sweet Galilee.
The sea of which
was solid ground
through Lord Jesus
many found.
Heaven’s gates
are then so sweet
that none other
could compete.
Truly so
those gates to find
hold a precious
point in time.
Timeless portholes
with God’s Grace
with the sight of
Jesus Face.

Today I Can

Now I find
I have a plan
saying now
today I can.
Today I can
are words to say
to get you by
from day to day.
Don’t let times
of bitter pills
fill you with
the lesser wills.
Today I can
become a sight
seeking what that’s
truly right.
There is strength
in fellow man
saying always
today I can.

Haiku
for Mar 3, 2013

Yearning for richness
could leave you empty handed
while true gifts pass by.

Belief in Jesus
won’t get you into Heaven.
Do you Love Jesus?

Breaking the silence
leaves echoes you might recall
as irritations.

The snow of winter
falls as white fluffy tree leaves
that cover the ground.

Springtime’s awaiting
as wintertime holds footing
in its time and space.

Listening for sounds
such as thunder from a storm
could put you to sleep.

Anger that is harnessed
might explode at a bad time
pushing friends away.

Beyond this moment
lies the seconds that we count
as sometimes hurried.

Trees filled up with snow
glisten in the near distance
as the sun shines bright.

Finding your footing
is often through stumbling
to where you can stand.

A forest of snow
holds the dreams of wintertime
within its branches.

Footprints in the snow
find me searching for the first
of where they began.

A frozen river
holds snow on top of the ice
while flowing beneath.

The seconds of love
are the most important times.
They create lifetimes.

Brooding over time
might cause bits of happiness
to pass you right by.

Long winded people
will often keep on talking
long after you’re gone.

Imagination
is the key to true success.
Good things can be found.

Life is a pattern
that many will lose focus
and end in despair.

Breathing in troubles
only allows more to grow.
Take a breath of Christ.

While white snowflakes fall,
the Earth becomes a pillow
that looks like cotton.

Various turnstiles
lead different directions
and sometimes connect.

Judging a person
by what someone else perceives
could end in despair.
