ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

How have you been?   I hope you’ve been handling all of
the weather changes.  We’ve been having a few melting days
to rid of a little snow,  but in the same instance when it gets
down to freezing and below it turns it to ice,  which is quite
hard to walk or drive on LOL.  The temperature is supposed
to start dropping again beginning today, at least up here it is.
Today’s high is supposed to be around 36 F degrees and drop
to 15 tonight with Monday’s high around 25 F degrees and
the rest of the week getting colder LOL.  In other words our
winter has a few more months left in it :).  There’s still tons
of snow outside.  It’ll take more than a day to melt away all
of this LOL.  Benny and Milo have been having fun in it :).
Yes,  Milo has found that he likes to go exploring in the snow
almost the same as Benny LOL.  I go out as often as I’m able
and play with them.  Judy comes out with us from time to time
and joins in as well.  We love to watch our little boys playing.
Right now,  everyone other than me is asleep.  My body was
aching too much,  so I decided to go ahead and get up and
get this written,  then maybe try to get some sleep later on in
the day.  Yet for now,  I’ll try and get this finished and edited
so I can send it to you.  The wind is blowing rather briskly
today and right now it’s 34 F degrees and clear.  Yep,  mister
sun is making it real hard to see as it reflects its rays off of
the snow LOL.  Just looking outside for a moment gives you
snowblindness hehehe.  So,  I try not to look in the direction
that the sun is sort of shining LOL.  We’ve left some hair
over Benny and Milo’s eyes as protection.  Benny has some
sunshades that we bought him shortly after we got him,  but
he doesn’t like to wear them.  We also got him a doggie cap,
but he isn’t thrilled about it either LOL.  Most dogs don’t
like to wear such things as hats, sunshades or booties and yes
we bought Benny and Milo some rubber booties to protect
their paws from the snow,  but they pulled them off faster
than we put them on LOL.  They don’t seem to be bothered
by the snow.  When they get to cold,   they bark at the door
saying we’re ready to come in and thaw hehehe.  At first it
was just Milo that barked at the door,  but it seems  that
Benny has learned from his big brother what to do when he’s
ready to come inside.  They truly love one another and you
can see it in their actions.  Now onto maybe a new topic :).
Judy was having trouble with her computer after she had
unplugged everything and moved it to the other side of her
desk,  but I believe I found the problem.  The USB hub she
was using had gone on the fritz,  so I had her to unplug it
being she really didn’t need it since she had gotten rid of
a few things that used the USB plugs.  So,  her PC is up
and running once again.  Maybe if she needs another hub
we will buy one in the future.  It’s not like they cost a lot.
I found a few on Amazon for as little as 7 dollars and less.
Yes even as low as 2 dollars LOL.  Of course we might
see the same prices or close at WalMart.  So,  what else
is going on around this place.  My new XP PC is working
well.  It’s nice not having to bump Judy off of her PC all
the time when I need to do my journals.  I wonder if when
they come out with Windows 9,  if they will find a way to
incorporate Outlook Express in it or a semblance  of it!
That would most assuredly make it much better,  because
Windows Live mail sucks big time.  There was an update
for it the other day,  but it didn’t fix the address folders,
so it’s still pretty useless in the sense of designing my
stationeries and sending my journals.  I could care less
about Microsoft’s updates on it being I have a great
anti virus and malware fighter on it.  The PC is up to
date as of now on the Microsoft updates,  but they are
saying they will cease the updates for XP this coming
April.  The computers will still work as always,  so I
don’t see the problem LOL.  They just want everyone
to spend money and buy their new product which sucks.
Though I have heard through the Techrepublic that the
Windows 8 has now fit the category of down grade and
this is their words,  “Windows 8 has been largely written
off as a debacle, much like Vista”.  Windows 7 has not
had the problems that Windows 8 has other than the
same old Email problems which are the most important
feature to me.  Hasn’t anybody in the Microsoft world
heard of the “If it’s not broken,  don’t fix it” theory?
Oh well,  there’s stupidity all over the world hehehe.
You don’t need to travel to find it LOL.  Benny was
standing in the kitchen with his little tail just wagging
away when I went to get me a soda water.  He followed
me back to the PC room and is now lying in his lil bed
right beside me with his head almost directly under me.
He likes to be close the same as Milo :).  There’s not
much else going on around here,  but Judy’s mom had
a spell the other day and she is now in the hospital.
She has some kind of infection,  but as of the last info
that Judy and I got,  they had not found out what it was
or what caused it.  We have not heard anything more.
Judy and her 3 sisters are each keeping tabs on her.
Milo was just scratching at the door.  He needed to go
out AGAIN.  Benny went out with him this time,  so
it’s back to my writing.  I can hear them barking at
the front door now,  but Judy can let them in.  I need
to get this written before my eyesight peters out and
I can’t see.  So,  what else is happening here at the
Pearce’s Place?  I’m thinking about getting back to
my Farm Town on Facebook LOL.  Maybe tonight!
Judy and I have been playing a picture word game
for the last few days.  It’s kind of fun.  It’s called
4 Pic 1 Word and it’s a Facebook game also hehehe.
God has been good to us.  We’ve found the joy of
being together.  God’s blessings seem to go on and
on.  Yet, I still find myself wishing for a better life.
I guess that’s the humanity that keeps us going.
If we ever get to where we don’t want any better,
then we will stagnate and die.  Our wanna is a good
motivator as long as it’s not out of sync with our
reality.  God gave us the freedom to choose and
it’s up to us to use our choices wisely.  Let prayer
to God help you with your choices.  Don’t let greed
to become a life of its own and take you down a
dusty road of Hell.  Now I believe it’s time for me
to be taking my little journey 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 little
place of my recollection that I always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE.  I think I may have found
a decent title,  but I need to make sure I haven’t
already used it LOL.  Nope,  ain’t used it,  so here
goes nothing.

Most Assuredly

Since dawn’s been dawning
and days have found end
time’s most assuredly
sought to begin.
Things that we’ve sought for
as days moved along
sometimes most assuredly
did not belong.
The flavors of people
with on going views
are most assuredly
what ones confuse.
So often ones eyesight
of moments applaud
are most assuredly
found without God.
Let not your mornings
of dawns other day
to be most assuredly
found in the grey.
Look for the blessings
that God’s given you
then most assuredly
you’ll see anew.
Look passed the sadness
your ventures attain
and most assuredly
you’ll smile again.

Ok so there ya go.  I hope you understood the poem and
maybe even enjoyed my rambling LOL.  I hear Judy in the
bedroom watching cartoons.  I guess I need to be finding
a stopping place for this so I can fix her and I something
to eat.  So I guess I need to tell you what I tell you every
week and that is,  I wrote some more poems and haiku :).
Yeppers,  10 more poems,  but none of them are Christmas
related this week hehehe.  Also,  I wrote 22 more haiku
for all of my haiku lovers out there.  With that said I guess
it’s time for me to be searching for that confounded 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.  Ok,  so you’re getting a bit
better at hiding,  but still not great LOL.  As long as you
keep hiding behind clear bottles,  no matter if they are
partially full,  I will find you ya silly little thing hehehe.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Winds With Waves

Changes in a blessing
comes as winds with waves
painting different pictures
that a moments time enslaves.
Scenes found revealing
new blessings in a frame
with their own conclusions
within a different name.
The many winds with waves
blow timelessly seen
sometimes revealing
an ongoing dream.
With every footstep
into brand new days
there are echoes found
within the winds with waves.
For in many seconds
are waves that come ashore
in the winds with waves
that God gave to explore.
Sometimes a moment
will blow quickly by
as the waves are building
a time we can’t deny.
For in the winds with waves
are times we need to see
to help us on our journey
to be what we will be.

Day Dreaming

Inside a peaceful thought
some moments time reveal
some pages of a dreamer
that they might try to conceal.
Day dreaming mysteries
with passions solitude
sometimes a moment displays
what’s just found misconstrued.
A day dreamer dreams on
of things they wish to be,
or places wished to go to
and things they wish to see.
Yet with ones day dreaming
the day moves on ahead
sometimes leaving daydreams
as a dried up riverbed.
Let your daytime dreaming
to find what’s true to tell
and don’t be found day dreaming
of what that leads to Hell.

North Winds

As winter winds blow on
the seasons might display
a wealth of white snow blowing
found within each day.
The north winds of tomorrow
might show us mysteries
that we might mistaken
as but just a freeze.
The scenes might be well hidden
behind our inner sight
as the north winds blow on
through daytime into night.
Some snow might float on down
with north winds sudden breath
far beyond our viewpoints
of the displayed moments breadth.
Winters passionate doorways
open wide to say
the north winds plight filled journey
will then find spring one day.

A Silent Star

When silence tip toes in
with seconds come to pass
a peace is found within
as time that’s wished to last.
A silent star of peace
that’s found in dark of night
twinkles with its passion
with its little light.
A silent star of nighttime
brings forth much to say
found within its silence
a twinkle that’s OK.
The night that now’s exploring
a silent star is found
with its twinkling essence
seen from all around.
The star has nothing heard
from here this Earthly view
but this silent star of time
twinkles very true.
It’s words are in it’s twinkle
so soundless with just sight
given as a blessing
for me to view at night.

Inner Landscape

Wisdom of a vision
found as inner peace
an inner journey displays
a time you can release.
The seasons of a journey
that inner landscape shows
might have many raindrops
or that of winter snows.
Inside your inner landscape
a painting might reveal
a season found with passion
that your hands can feel.
Keep that landscape thriving,
for it might then one day
help you on your journey
to deal with some dismay.
Problems will come raining
as a storm will brew
so keep you inner landscape
to help you start anew.
Let not times of troubles
to be all that you know.
Look for all the blessings
in places that you go.
For in the inner landscape
is hope for now and then
to help in bitter moments
for good to then begin.
Let God guide your journey
through each day by and by
to help you find the beauty
if you’d just give a try.

Dream Star

Within a dream
a star is found
with peace and love
for all around.
The dream star shows
a certain gaze
found as moments
dreaming ways.
This little star
up in the sky
is filled with dreams
from Adonai.
The star is love
with twinkles too
up high above
both me and you.
It’s a dream star
magic night
filled with hope
from it’s own light.

Snowy Footprints

Our little boys
of tiny feet
snowy footprints
look so sweet.
Their little paws
within the snow
show the places
that they go.
Snowy footprints
here to there
make me feel
a zillionaire.
Their cute smiles
that they show too
are in the snowy
footprints view.
Patterns made
with little paws
are gone in time
when winter thaws.
Yet those cute
snowy footprints
will then next year
again commence.
But for now
they still are there
those snowy footprints
everywhere.
Their little paws
in snow so deep
they just trudge on
with each heartbeat.

Anything Can Be

With choices made
and pages turned
a new day’s found
with what’s discerned.
Anything can be
much better found
when all the bad
is turned around.
A time remembered
with such detail
anything can be
a ship set sail.
A timeless voyage
through center stage
might be a time
of different age.
Many choices
that we make
might be in time
a big mistake,
but those choices
anything can be
a much better life
for you and me.
Anything can be
if meant to do
a moments whim
that is so true.
Yet your choices
of day to day
can be anything
that’s a better way.

Colors of Love

Shimmers of glitter
with sequence delight
the colors of love are
found such a sight.
Sometimes as fragrance then
scented so sweet
and some colors are as
a tasty times treat.
In the colors of love
we often will find
ones of a semi like
true hearted mind.
Colors united
as moments will pass
leaving a blessing
with a shadows contrast.
Shimmering beauty
as wings of a dove
two hearts united
are the colors of love.

Laid Back

Leaving excitement
stood at the front door
a laid back persona
might find a bit more.
Not letting wanna
to override good
a laid back persona
might get what it should.
Yet being laid back
can also be found
leaving you jobless
as time crashes ground.
Learn when it’s good to
to be as laid back
and don’t let your wanna
to get you off track.
Laid back emotions
are sometimes real good,
but other times not so
when not what you should.

Haiku
for Feb 22,  2014

Sometimes a flower
is but only a flower
that’s really a weed.

Age old illusions
can become real to the sight
if someone shows proof.

An ancient pathway
will often have connections
found within today.

Looking for shadows
might find a few disclosures
darker than others.

Waking up saddened
can be changed by just a thought
to decide to smile.

Many think one way
and others think another
leaving some questions.

Realizing yourself
gives you strength to be better
if you are willing.

Doorways to today
have many different knobs
that lead to crossroads.

As life has been learned
we’ve found many conclusions
that are right and wrong.

Today is a time
that’s needing our attention
to make tomorrow.

God gives us true love,
but so many give Him none
and end up empty.

Leaves that fall from trees
will often end up as piles
found other places.

Sunrise by morning
brings chances for a new day
that time can provide.

Searching for old friends
could leave you in confusion,
because they have changed.

Looms on a machine
can create many patterns
such a many lives.

As winter subsides
it might fill many rivers
from the melted snow.

When found in dreamland
your reality might fade
leaving truth as lies.

Making a footprint
needs a few steps to be made
sometimes with chances.

An effortless day
gives way for a little rest,
but don’t slack your time.

When two hearts connect
they make way for a pattern
to be good or bad.

If boredom arrives
it might make way for changes
found in your lifestyle.

Truth is just a word,
for the proof is the pudding
such as how you walk.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s another snow filled day in our little place in the boonies.
Yeppers,  it’s still snowing and it looks like I will have to go
out again like I did Friday and shovel out a few places for the
boys to go potty and explore LOL.  Benny loves to explore
so I’ve gotta keep an eye on him hehehe.  He loves it when
I go outside and walk in the snow,  because he can walk in
my footsteps without falling through LOL.  Milo is much of
the same in that area.  Yet,  Benny is still just a pup and he
loves to play in the snow like his dad.  Yes,  I like to play in
the snow.  I’m old,  not dead :).  Our mailbox is tilting again.
It looks like the snowplows have pushed it over slightly,  but
ours along with the other two on the pole are still in a sort
of upright slanted position LOL.  I had to go around to the
back of the house and chisel the ice off of the screen door
in back so I could open it.  The snow had it pinned and ice
had formed on the bottom of it.  That was fun LOL.  The
snow was up to my waste and a few places deeper and
there’s not much blowing snow back there.  It’s mostly
what fell from the sky LOL.  The wind is blowing rather
briskly.  Wind speeds from 15 to 20 mile an hour with
35 miles an hour gust.  Not too bad,  but when the snow
is blowing in the wind it makes it hard to see and even
at times stings a tad when it hits ya LOL.  The boys are
now in here lying in their beds.  Benny wanted to go out,
but after watching him go down the steps and look up
at me,  I found that he wanted me to come outside with
him.  I had my house shoes on and robe,  but went down
the steps as far as I could before I began sinking and
getting snow in my shoes LOL,  then Benny went for
a walk in the little path I made to go around to the back.
I told him don’t go too far,  because even with my trail
it will be too deep for you and he turned around and
headed back.  I could almost swear that those lil boys
understand me.  I guess it could be that I am an animal
of sorts hehehe grrrrreat.  Judy and I managed to get
most of our shopping done before the snows began :).
So we’re just hanging around the house enjoying the
view.  We went outside Friday and played with the boys
and got a lot of great pictures of us and the boys.  They
totally enjoyed us being outside with them.  Though
the time was short,  we had fun taking pictures and
all.  Wintertime snowflakes are a wonderful sight,  but
even they can wear out their welcome hehehe.  Yet
for now,  they are blissful at least to us hehehehehe.
We’re thankful that our landlord sends a dude to plow
our driveway so we can get out,  but it looks like he’s
a little late coming today.  No problem,  we haven’t
got anywhere to be today.  We though after I finish
are planning on going out with the boys to take some
pictures and play with them.  There’s not much else
going on around the Pearce’s Place.  Judy and I have
started playing a picture game together on Facebook.
We look at 4 pictures and try to find the word that
is describing them in the letters provided hehehehe.
She’s better at it than I am.  For some reason words
in scrambled letters do not compute with me very
well LOL,  but we enjoy playing together.  I have
yet to of gotten back to my Farm Town.  We might
one day soon get back to our hidden object games,
but no hurry.  We just try and enjoy our timeframes
together as each day comes our way.  Life is too
short to let the little turmoil’s to steal our happiness.
The things we enjoy together are the things that
we let shine brightly.  Looking for the negativity
will only bring you sadness.  God lives with us as
we welcome each new day with peace and love
in our hearts.  Let God live with you as you head
out on your journey of life no matter sleeping or
wide awake.  Find the joy in a single breath of
existence as chances are formed before your eyes.
Take God with you everywhere you go and then
no matter what happens,  it will all work out for
the better.  Now,  I guess it’s time for me to begin
my little journey back through all that I’ve written
here to see if I can find a decent 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 like to call RECOLLECT
VILLE.  I think I found a good title that I haven’t
already used.  Now let’s see what I can do with it.
Here goes!

Journey of Life

Found in a snowflake
are pathways to see
a journey of life found
in a white colored sea.
Snow mounds created
as peaceful is found
is a journey of life on
a white colored ground.
Scenes in the distance
of times black and white
a journey of life shows
a wonderful sight.
Painted as blessings
from Lord God above
the journey of life is
filled full of love.
Let not the problems
that hardship transpires
to put out your passion
of love trodden fires.
Look now and see all
the journeys of life
that God has given
to lesson your strife.

I hope that poem made sense to you hehehe.  If it didn’t
make sense to ya,  so sorry hehehe.  It’s still snowing and
it looks pretty.  I have the curtain pulled so we can see it.
Also I have the glass in the screen door so we can leave
the door opened and see out without letting the cold air
in LOL.  It lets some light in the house and for some odd
reason makes it more peaceful.  Anyways,  Judy is playing
that picture word game on her PC now and I am anxious
to finish writing here so I can join her :).  I guess I need
to stop here before I get into rambling mode again LOL,
so I reckon it’s time for me to tell you what I tell you
almost every week and that is, I wrote some more poems
and haiku.  Yeppers,  10 more poems with 1 being sort
of Christmassy and 22 haiku for all of my haiku lovers
out there.  I hope you like one or two of either or both.
Now I believe it’s about time for me to begin searching
for that not so elusive off switch :),  but not before I
wish you a most wonderful God filled week.  Remember,
Jesus loves you and we do too.  Now,  where’s that silly
off switch hiding this time?  OK,  now you might wanna
hone up on your hiding skills,  because trying to make
like a snowflake in the window won’t work.  First off,
your on the inside and secondly you’re not snow LOL.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

A Single Flake

As snowflakes fall
the ground turns white
creating such
a wonderful sight.
A single flake
lands with some more
to paint a sight
that I adore.
Landing softly
upon the ground
a single flake
finds many found.
The scenery
becomes intense
as it buries
a distant fence.
All that’s seen then
far and wide
are the snowflakes
more applied.
As snowflakes fall
from day to night
the scenes become
a wonderful sight.

True To See

The things we do
and say each day
will often be
our times display.
For unbeknownst
to you right then
your true to see
might be of sin.
Let not sinning
be all you do.
Try to be the
best of you.
True to see
in days gone by
and not living
just a lie.
So many things
we do and say
make or break
another day.

The Stars Above

The painted skies
of dark of night
are often seen
with stars of light.
The stars above
are often found
with the night times
certain sound.
Moments echoed
here and there
the stars above
will give them flair.
Along with moonlights
glitter glow
the stars above
will twinkle so.
The nights surmise
of certain gaze
the stars above
are just a phase.
For as the night of
thereunto
the stars above
give me a view.

Wintertime’s Bliss

With many turnstiles
that open and close
spring turns to winter
through times that expose.
Summertime’s heatwave
is found with much sweat
remembering winters
that they can’t forget.
The wintertime’s bliss
is in a heartbeat
as that of rhythms
where seasons repeat.
With every journey
some echoes are found
remembering snowflakes
all over the ground.
Windows are found with
a white snowy kiss
within the turnstile of
wintertime’s bliss.

Beyond November

In Novembers headlights
are Decembers views
often found with some
white snowy shoes.
Decembers snowflakes
all fall fancy free
while giving essence of
Christmas to see.
Beyond November
are scenes found displayed
found in December
of snowmen kids made.
Christmas is glittered
with bright shiny lights
then found enhancing
the darkest of nights.
Beyond November
are flavors to find
as that of snowflakes
within Christmastime.
Scenes we remember
with greatest detail
beyond November
with snowflakes set sail.

Morning’s Snowflake

Soon through nighttime
day will come
with the sight of
morning’s sun.
Mornings snowflake
may deny
morning’s sunshine
in the sky.
For the clouds might
hide from view
morning’s sunshine
thereunto.
Morning’s snowflake
will still be
greatest sight to
surely see.
Painted with a
whitish haze
morning’s snowflake
then displays.
Landing softly
on the ground
giving sights that
can be found.
So if snowflakes
fall on you
look to see
the greatest view.

Sometime Might Be

Windows doorways
opened wide
might let sadness
come inside.
Sometime might be
not so great
windows doorways
out of date.
Lessons riddled
with what’s said
from the past days
riverbed.
Seasons journeys
river flows
might lead to some
bitter lows.
Sometime might be
best to see
when it’s best for
you and me.
Let not hurry
drive insane
wanted through the
windowpane.
Sometime might be
waiting true
for the best for
you to do.

Imperfect Perfect

Seeking perfection
through wanting not wise
can display problems of
imperfect skies.
Perfect is God’s way
for He wants the best,
but imperfect perfect
so many detest.
Thinking perfection
is needed acquired
when you are perfect
as God had aspired.
Imperfect perfect
comes from deep within
as you are always
just wanting to win.
Not being happy
with best you can be
the imperfect perfect
can wear a degree.
Learn to be happy
with how God made you
as imperfect perfect
the greatest to view.

Light Waves

Across the skyline
I can see
light waves shining
fancy free.
Even clouds of
fluffy white
can’t hide light waves
from my sight.
Picture paintings
found with light
are the things that
I delight.
Clouds united
far and wide
light waves show
a wondrous ride.
Floating across
the sky of blue
the light waves then
display their hue.
Designs fractal
surely seen
light waves might be
bluish green.
With the portions
in day light,
light waves are then
seen at night.

Our Porch Light

When in snowstorms
lost from sight
I seek truly
our porch light.
For that little
light I find
helps my footsteps
time to time.
Our light glimmers
in the snow
and often shows
the way to go.
So if snowstorms
lose you to
look to Jesus
light so true.
He’s our porch light
every day
guiding footsteps
in His way.
Sometimes wanting
will lose way
of His porch light
day to day.
Yet our porch light
shines real bright
with God’s love
and Jesus Light.

Haiku
for Feb 15,  2014

The reach of an arm
does not show ability
but only it’s length.

With but just a breath
a life can become better
if that breath is true.

Allowing sadness
to become your existence
will push ones away.

Walking down dark roads
can awaken many fears
if you allow them.

Minutes will tick on
leaving want in the sidelines
if you just sit there.

Leaving your footprints
will show others where you’ve been,
so watch where you walk.

A nights snowy walk
might hear the sounds of the wind
as blows through the trees.

Life is a journey
that many take for granted
not seeing the good.

Playing a fools game
will end with many regrets
as time is revealed.

Lessons as snowflakes
will gather as time permits
with either good or bad.

Too many people
leave better choices at home
and start a fire.

Rivals of many
can often be united
with one common bond.

Sounds of surrender
will often be found as weak,
but show true courage.

An icicle hangs
while it becomes much longer
through the time of drips.

Looking back too much
could cause you to lose today,
for yesterday’s gone.

Life is a blessing
that often becomes nightmares
due to bad choices.

As we watch each day
we might see a few moments
that seem to echo.

Pulling a wagon
filled with all of your troubles
can be less with God.

Chances for pages
to become a true story
needs a true reader.

Dreaming mysteries
leaves the mind opened to change
of nows perception.

Ones belief in God
can be the greatest reward
if with love and trust.

Harboring sadness
can make every day the same
with no chance for smiles.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

So what’s new in your part of the world?  It’s pretty much
the same old same old around here.  I did though get my
other PC set up and all of my addresses along with many
of my necessary files moved over to it.  So,  it should be
good to go.  I will know for sure when I get finished with
my writing here and send it to it to set up the stationery
and make copies and then send.  I hope it all goes over
without a snag :).  I can’t write the article on it being it
only has a 15 inch monitor on it and this PC that I am on
now with Windows 8 has my large monitor,  which I will
be using for everything other than doing my stationeries
and sending email.  Maybe one day when I have some
extra cash,  I will buy a cheap 20 inch monitor for the
other PC :).  In the mean time,  this should do.  Now it’s
time for a new topic.  Our weather has been bouncing
around quite a bit,  but it’s still cold with tons of snow
outside for me and the boys to play in hehehe.  Benny
and Milo love it when I go outside with them and play.
I love to watch them running and playing.  I’ve gotten
a few videos of them romping around in the snow 🙂
It’s 13 F degrees right now at 4:42 PM.  That’s not
too bad for this time of the year.  Judy and the boys
are in the bedroom watching TV.  It’s pretty much the
same way it is most every Sunday when I’m writing
my journal :).  If the boys are in here,  they seem to
want attention and Milo makes it apparent with his
barking and jumping up and nudging us hehehehe.
Benny let’s Milo do all of the work LOL.  He ain’t
dumb!  I’m having the dickens of a time trying to
concentrate with the TV on in the bedroom LOL,
but I shall try and continue on.  LOL  I just put an
earplug in my left ear. Now I can’t hear the TV in
the bedroom.  My right ear is stone deaf.  Our little
red car is still zooming around getting us where we
need to be,  but I have to go and start the car most
every day or so and let it run for a bit to keep the
battery charged when the temperatures drop down
to about 10 degrees and below.  We haven’t got the
money this month to buy a new battery so I’ll keep
doing that to get us by.  It’s gotten a little colder
since I began writing.  Now it’s 10 F degrees LOL.
It’s supposed to get down to 0 by morning.  It’ll be
a good TV watching day :).  Tonight we have a few
of our favorite TV programs to watch.  Believe it
or not,  it’s hard for me to think with my left ear
plugged LOL.  I might have to take out the plug
and just deal with the TV noise that’s coming from
the bedroom hehehe.  I asked Judy to turn the TV
down a bit.  Now it’s not so bad.  Hehehe we’re both
deaf and have to have the TV blaring to hear it,  but
with it that loud I can feel the vibrations in here and
it makes it hard to think.  I couldn’t make out the
words,  just the sounds.  It looks like we might get
a little more snow tonight beginning at midnight or
thereabouts.  Oh well,  at least it’s not sleet and rain.
My body is still feeling the jolts from my last slip
and fall on the ice a while back.  Our landlord is
still laid up due to his last fall on the ice.  It will
get you when you least expect it,  so I’ve gotten in
the habit of always expecting it LOL.  I always
test the steps now before putting my full weight
on them hehehe.  I’ve seen Benny and Milo slide
down them often,  but they’re close to the ground
and the fall is not gonna hurt them near as bad
as it does for a 220 pound Big Foot hehehehehe.
I be a big guy and when my size gets to falling
it’s gonna break something for sure upon the
landing LOL.  I couldn’t sit for a long time after
my last fall.  I had a big knot on my bum and a
humongous one square foot in diameter bruise on
it LOL.  Ok,  next topic,  if I can find one hehehe.
Nope,  that’s about it for my rambling.  God has
been keeping His Mighty Hands over us.  The
days,  weeks and months may often find us with
some struggles here and there,  but with God,  all
things are possible.  We’ve found many things
that came into our lives and caused us much pain,
but we’re stronger now through them all.  If life
seems to be throwing you some lemons,  then do
the best you can with them and maybe make a pie.
Cease the blame game on who you think is the
responsible one for you turning out the way you
did.  Sometimes it’s best to just let it go and find
the lessons in it all and move on.  Now,  I believe
it’s time for me to begin my journey back through
all that I have 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 always like
to call RECOLLECT VILLE.  I think I found a
good title and it doesn’t seem to be one that I’ve
used yet,  so here goes.   Enjoy 🙂

Stronger Now

The shades of gray
through black and white
are sometimes seen
a bitter sight.
Yet those moments
shades of gray
might give you tools
for another day.
Then those minutes
times endow
will be the words
your stronger now.
Many ventures
many gains
will seem just like
some choo-choo trains.
Often moments
times derailed
are stronger now
because you failed.
Let the lessons
yesterday
be stronger now
to show the way.

I have amazed myself LOL.  I have yet to of had to go
back and re date anything due to the 2013-2014 change.
I did though have to go back and change a moment from
Jan to Feb hehehe.  I do mess up time to time hehehehe.
LOL I often read what I’ve written to myself because
what I do is almost like automatic writing.  I just start
typing the words that come into my head and I’m often
surprised at what I wrote.  I try not to think about what
I’m writing too much.  That especially goes for my haiku.
I can write haiku while watching TV and on most cases
have written all 22 of them while watching TV hehehe.
Don’t ask me how I do it.  Ask God!  He’s The One
that gave me this gift.  Well it’s 7 F degrees right now
according to our outdoor thermostat.  I guess it’s time
for me to be telling you what I tell you every week and
that is,  I wrote some more poems and haiku.  Yep,
10 more poems with one of em being a Christmas poem.
I also wrote 22 more haiku for all of my haiku lovers
out there.  I hope you enjoy one or 2 of either or both.
Now it’s time for me to begin my search for that off
switch that puts forth a poor effort of hide and seek,
but not before I wish you a most wonderful and God
filled week.  Remember,  Jesus loves you and we do
too.  Ok,  so where are ya hiding this time ya silly
thing.  LOL I see ya hiding behind my camera 🙂
Smile and say CHEESE hehehehehehehehehehe.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

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

Jumbled Echoes

Yesterdays
of times details
might be found
as jumbled sails
While displaying
times accord
jumbled echoes
climb aboard.
Leaving traces
such to see
as our echoes
you and me.
Jumbled echoes
come alive
with remembrance
by and by.
Scenes remembered
not so well
jumbled echoes
then set sail.

Morning’s Sky

The day begins
with morning’s sky
held as if it’s
nights reply.
Mornings sky
is found to be
as what all
we’ll surely see.
Turning points
of now and then
are found as times
remember when.
Morning’s gaze
is sometimes seen
found repeating
a rushing stream.
For,  as night leaves
it paints real high
the scenes we see
in morning’s sky.

The Looking Glass

Our hearts desires
come to pass
found inside
the looking glass.
Many desires
reflecting back
might end up
not so on track.
The looking glass
displays the truth
sometimes found
a bit uncouth.
Sometimes seen
is facts accord
when it’s found
with our sweet Lord.
The changes made
from then to now
the looking glass
will then endow.
Showing truly
what’s inside
the looking glass
will never hide.

Hearts of Time

Singles snowflakes
float and fly
hearts of time
is their reply.
Gathered surely
to and fro
hearts of time
with Christmas snow.
The evergreens
of distant view
display snow
a wondrous hue.
Hearts of time
become the day
painted in a
Christmas way.
Pure white essence
snow has made
Christmastime
is then inlaid.
With the many
hearts of time
many sing
a Christmas rhyme
Songs so joyful
truly so
often of
the Christmas snow.

Belief in The Lord

So many seek proof
of Him that’s on high
and often don’t trust
in Him by and by.
Belief in The Lord
needs done deep inside
and not just requiring
to see Him reside.
Let not your turnstiles
of minutes that pass
leave you found empty
in your shadows cast.
Belief in The Lord
will help you each day
surely if you will
kneel down now and pray.
Don’t believe liars
that say He’s not true,
for Jesus Christ surely
is good within you.

Within This Winter

From then to now
and now to then
within this winter
times begin.
Painted snowflakes
falling so free
within this winter
for me to see.
As each day passes
time is found
within this winter
a snowy ground.
The cold winds blowing
such to say
within this winter
things display.
Such as mornings
blinding true
within this winter
a white snow view.
The day is seen
as light cascades
within this winter
with sunshades.

Looking Fast

Quickly walking
looking fast
might cause problems
in your past.
Not allowing
time to flow
might cause errors
where you go.
Don’t let hurry
lead astray
looking fast
from day to day.
Let the moments
not be hurry
or they might just
end in worry.
Looking fast might
dig a hole
not allowing
need to know.
Sometimes moments
might not be
what your looking
fast did see.

With A Gaze

Sometimes gazing
at the sky
I will see
a star fly by.
In the night sky
moonlight bright
with a gaze
I see a sight.
Stars that twinkle
sparkle too
give me such a
wondrous view.
With a gaze
I see up there
a fluffy cloud
that none compare.
Floating passed the
stars at night
giving me a
different sight.

Nobody Did It

Many point fingers
at others instead
of owning up truly
to what’s done and said.
Nobody did it
is often the case
of ones together
in wrongful embrace.
Often ones wrong way
will end up with pain
when nobody did it
left them in the rain.
Not letting actions
to be truly done
can make then somebody
need call 911.
When nobody did it
and it laid to waste
someone might find it
a moments distaste.
Don’t be somebody
that utters these words
nobody did it
and end so absurd.
Get up and do what
you’re needing to do
and nobody did it
won’t come into view.

Heaven’s Gates

When Jesus came
He brought to view
Heaven’s Gates
for me and you.
He gave us chances
you and I
to find our home
with Adonai.
Yet so many
turn away
from Heaven’s Gates
from day to day.
Those are choices
sadly done
to turn away
from God’s Own Son.
Heaven’s Gates
are opened wide
to let us choose
to come inside.

Haiku
for Feb 7,  2014

Today’s tomorrow
might not turn out how we thought
with worry for naught.

Lives in a turnstile
will often become confused
between in or out.

The strength of a chain
is often made by the links
that held it in place.

Blindly seeking gain
could leave you with emptiness
that was senseless gain.

Searching for snowflakes
in the coldness of winter
might surely be white.

A brisk morning breeze
comes as wintertime’s values
often with snowflakes.

Viewing your problems
will often be disfigured
within many doubts.

Looking out windows
finds the seasons each changing
as a book of time.

Striving to have things
could find you with many things
that you do not need.

Clanking of a can
that’s being kicked by someone
might be their boredom.

Some doors that open
might not be good to enter
due to deception.

Pleasing a person
could become your own folly,
for they might use you.

Allowing a sunbeam
to rest upon your shoulder
might give you a smile.

Hearts that hold truthful
will always become stronger
no matter the view.

Many seek shelter
in the wrong destinations
with no ones advice.

Storms will be gathered
as our lives find more moments
trial and error.

A persons outlook
might be due to their passed life
that has not moved on.

Meaningful chatter
comes as children will play games
that we used to play.

Having compassion
can become a great burden
if it’s not governed.

Anger becomes bombs
awaiting someplace to blow,
so put out the fuse.

Looks are deceiving
when they’ve had time to prepare,
so look beneath sight.

Grieving over time
only causes you ulcers,
so enjoy right now.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

How have you been handling this weird weather that seems to
have been spreading itself about?   LOL,  it’s been a weird one
up this way.  It’s 34 F degrees right now at 2:27 PM.  We got
some more snow last night.  The snow blindness continues on.
LOL gotta wear sunshades if ya go outside.  Today is another
lazy day at the Pearce’s Place.  I got my PC back from the shop
in Texas Friday,  but have not felt up to par to get down in the
floor to hook it up.  Maybe sometime this week.  Hopefully it
will work as I wanted it to.  We shall see LOL.  Thank you Ron
and Mandy at Century Computer for fixing it for me.  My old
body won’t let me do the things I used to do dad burn it and
it get’s aggravating.  My eyesight’s gotten to the point where
my only good eye gets weak faster and I am limited on what
I am able to do.  I hear the sounds of sawing wood coming from
the bedroom hehehe.  I think it’s Judy deep in slumber and it
seems Milo isn’t far behind :).  I’ll wake Judy up when I have
finished writing and get her to help me edit this mess hehehe.
The snow has ceased for at least a little while.  It might start
up again during the week.  I’m sure Benny will be ecstatic  as
usual LOL.  Judy and I both got a few good pictures of the
snow on the trees this morning.  It was beautiful as always as
the snow glistened off of the trees in the midst of the field of
white that added to its beauty.  I had to shut the computer
room door,  because the TV in the bedroom was distracting.
I just heard a train in the distance.  It must be headed on its
journey to wherever.  It’s not a passenger train.  The nearest
passenger train is maybe New Hampshire or Massachusetts.
There’s only one bus that comes up this way LOL.  Yep 🙂
we’re pretty secluded up here.  Maine is the only state that
borders only one state and the other 2 sides are bordered
by Canada LOL.  Maine is a sort of land peninsula with the
ocean on the southeast section of Maine.  There’s a lot of
interesting history up here in Maine.  A lot more than I was
aware of.  Did you know that the state was built by glaciers
which explains why there are so many underground streams.
Most of the lakes are fed by underground streams and the
water is so clear that you can see the bottom even at many
feet deep.  You can read about that if you click the link below.
http://iceagetrail.umaine.edu/content/iceageinmaine/iceageinmaine.php
I have found it fascinating how much of the center portions
of the state are only populated by a few people living off of
the land.  A few mountaineers and a few Amish.  Judy and
I watch a TV program often about Mountain Men and there
are a few that we see in Maine.  We often have some Amish
to pass by our home on the county road in their horse and
buggy.  During the summertime days,  we will often see an
Amish on a bicycle.  They are friendly folks.  There’s an
Amish store down the road from us.  Judy and I go there
every once in a while to browse and shop.  They have a lot
of neat things that they’ve made and they also grow many
things to sell such as watermelons.  It’s still 34 F degrees
outside.  Not much of a change huh.  I ain’t complaining.
It makes it easier on our heating oil LOL.  Hmm,  what
else is there to talk about?  Well,  The old groundhog said
there’s 6 more weeks of winter,  but then that will never
happen up here LOL.  We have winter often until the mid
or last part of April.  Then again we have seen winter to
stretch itself on into May LOL.  I think that may be just
for Punxsutawney Phil in Pennsylvania hehehe.  It might
though surprise us,  but me thinks not.  Of course this has
been our warmest winter since we’ve moved up here,  so
anything is possible I reckon.  Whatever happens,  I am
sure that God is in control.  I pray to God always and I
ask Him to protect us from any evil that might be in the
midst.  He has sent many angels to watch over us,  for
I can feel their presence all the time.  I’m sure that my
dad and others are also looking out for us and giving us
protection.  Many think death of the body is the ending,
but it’s only the beginning of another realm of existence.
Your loved ones are always near.  Their spirits aren’t
confined by the flesh of a body so they can always be
with you.  Remember,  God is in control.  Bad things
may happen,  but surely good will derive from them,
such as bringing ones together that would of never
come together otherwise.  Let God live in your heart
as you awaken every day to a life anew.  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 word
or phrase that I can use for the title of 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 believe I may have found a good title that
I haven’t already used.  Now,  let’s see if I can put
together a few words to form a decent poem using
it LOL.  Here goes!

I Ain’t Complaining

The days might be cloudy
and rain might fall down,
but I’m not complaining
for my joy is found.
The seasonal snowflakes
so white as can be
bring me my blessings
in forms I can see.
No I’m not complaining
about who and why
such as a doorway
to clouds in the sky.
Surely the timeframes
of blessings I’ve found
bring me conclusions
of God all around.
Nope,  I ain’t complaining
for I know so true
my past was a journey
that led me to you.
You are my angel
my sweetness divine
and I ain’t complaining
because you are mine.
God gave me you dear
my love light to be
here now with each day
to make history.

To Judy Pearce
from Bill Pearce (ME) 🙂

So,  how was that?  I know,  ya didn’t expect me to write a
poem to my wife did ya LOL!  Did my rambling lose you in
a windstorm hehehe.  I hope I gave you a lot to think about.
God only knows I think a lot about many things always LOL.
I wish at times I could shut my thinker off,  but it seems to
always be in overdrive LOL.  It seems that my brain never
finds a time to rest.  Even on the freaking toilet I find myself
making up poems or thinking of something that has been on
my mind.  Nope, ain’t no off switch!  It really drives me mad
when I’m trying to get some rest LOL,   but that’s the way it
is inside of my mind.  Most kids in school never truly knew
who I was or the depth of my thoughts.  Most were totally
surprised when they found out I was a poet.  They knew that
I wrote lyrics,  but for some dumb reason never made the
connection LOL.  Now all of my school friends that are on
Facebook are seeing the side of me that I never allowed
ones to see.  Welcome to my life.  LOL.  You didn’t think
that I just started writing poetry a few years ago,  did you?
Nope hehehe!  So I guess I need to stop here and tell you
what I tell you every week before I begin rambling again
and that is,  I wrote some more poems and haiku.  Yep,
I wrote 10 more poems with 2 of them being Christmas
poems and 22 haiku for all of my haiku lovers out there.
I hope a few of either or both find a place inside your
heart as smiles or lessons.  Now it’s time once again
for me to try and find that not very elusive off switch
that is horrible at playing hide and seek,  but not before
I wish you a most wonderful God filled week.  Remember,
Jesus loves you and we do too.  Ok,  so where are ya
hiding at this time ya silly thing?  Hey,  you’re getting
better hehehe.  I almost didn’t see ya hiding behind
my external hard drive.  I might not of seen ya if
you would of not been peeking out to see if I could
see ya LOL.  Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

P.S. Hehehe oh yea,  I trimmed my beard up a tad.

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

Things We Dream Of

Found when we’re sleeping
and also awake
are a dreams paradise
with things to partake.
The things we dream of
are often surreal
things that we’re dreaming
but never shall feel.
Those fantastic dreams
of a dawns other day
can help us right now to
make it OK.
For it is the dreamer
that finds inner peace
that will breathe a breath
that troubled times cease.
The things we dream of
as fiction or real
can give our future
a better appeal.

New Friends Found

When in a pathway
of seasonal views
often our friendships
will put on new shoes.
Some as a snowflake
floating so free
and others as raindrops
upon you and me.
With new friends found
in days gone by
time will display them
as low or high.
It’s minutes to hours
in a counted array
that brings us truthful
in now and today.
When two are counted
as one common ground
there is a chance for
some true new friends found.

Counting Snowflakes

Winters doorway
brings to view
counting snowflakes
thereunto.
Snowflakes falling
from the sky
makes ones counting
watch them fly.
Blowing briskly
in the breeze
through the hillsides
through the trees.
Counting snowflakes
makes ones find
often signs of
Christmastime.
Seeing beauty
fall to Earth
where we found
our Saviors birth.
Jesus brought us
Holy Grace

Yet so many
will see true

it’s own way.
Timeless journeys
found so strange
are what’s seen
as seasons change.
Some days sunshine,
some days clouds
as the seasons
each arouse.
It might be cold
or hot each day
as each season
goes its way.
With each turnstile
some so strange
life is found
as seasons change.

Beyond Our View

You might not see
what’s truly there
time to time
within somewhere.
Beyond our view
is often found
what we heard
mistaken sound.
Sometimes ones will
gather true
to be themselves
beyond our view.
It might just be
their worried world,
what you’ll think
with truth unfurled.
So don’t be judging
without knowing
beyond our view
the fear not showing.
Many hesitate
to let you in,
because of places
that they’ve been.
Someone might of
hurt them bad
and made them to
feel so sad.
Yet those feelings
that they feel
beyond our view
they just conceal.

Breath of Light

Moments doorways
shining through
might not be
the best for you.
A breath of Light
right now today
is in need
a Godly way.
Breathe in Jesus
to right now
a breath of Light
to show you how.
The gleaming moments
then that show
might be found
the best to go.
Surely nothing
we befall
is not risky
over all.
Yet some chances
time displays
can become as
better days.
So don’t let now
that’s in sight
be without
a breath of Light.

Thoughts Forgotten

Long ago
and pages turned
thoughts forgotten
are bridges burned.
Pathways riddles
may have seen
thoughts forgotten
rushing stream.
Seamed together
far and wide
thoughts forgotten
are applied.
All those thoughts
of timeless days
might just be
a moments haze.
Thoughts forgotten
not at all
maybe again will
stand so tall.
Those memories
of forgotten trails
might one day
find brand new sails.
Then as moments
times arise
thoughts forgotten
make us wise.

Standing Still

With ones praying
standing still
things won’t happen
never will.
Actions needed
now and then
will make prayerful
to begin.
Times you stood there
watching waiting
when you’ve prayed
anticipating
you might of found
a stillness seen
as a moments
stagnant stream.
Let not prayer to
be just found
with you standing
looking around.
Find a place for
you to start
then God’s action
will impart.

Christmas Of Old

I now remember
a time long ago
a scene found at Christmas
with store bought canned snow.
That Christmas of old
in times I remember
shines as the brightness
of loves burning ember.
The songs we would sing
as mom played along
while we found joy
in each Christmas song.
We put up our stockings
and hung Christmas lights
watching them twinkle
into the nights.
Dad would read stories
of a Heavenly Name
Christmas of old then
how Jesus Christ came.
Those sweet memories
of times long ago
are now as a river
not ceasing to flow.

Becoming Aware

As snowflakes fall
and winds will blow
we might find
the need to know.
Becoming aware
of now and then
is a journey
to begin.
Pathways trodden
here and there
might be found
to lead somewhere.
Finding footprints
in the snow
might make thoughts to
come to know.
Thinking of every
footstep made
becoming aware might
not degrade.
Let your awareness
in your voyage
become as lessons
to take charge.

Haiku
for Feb 1,  2014

Tomorrows journey
might begin with some struggles
that today provides.

New is a viewpoint
that many might find purchased,
because they bought it.

Seasonal displays
often come as some sunshine,
raindrops and snowflakes.

As sleep prospers
it gives dreams a chance to thrive,
seconds as hours.

Leftover thinking
can become todays baggage
found in tomorrow.

The wind blows snowflakes
as they gradually land
making scenery.

Without yesterday
today could never be seen,
for time is created.

Seeking fantasies
could leave you found with sadness
when truth comes to light.

Links to a shadow
are found in a perception
seen through a moment.

Lines showing ages
are often hidden from view
due to ones makeup.

Beginning stories
can often lead to a fish
larger than it was.

Seen as a river
are words that flow fluently
speaking a sentence.

Looking at the snow
on a bright sunshiny day
will cause snow blindness.

Too much anything
can become many problems
that gather in time.

Places we’ve been to
are as photos in our minds
that we remember.

Clinking sounds of time
are often irritation
later found as joy.

Misty mornings dawn
comes as cherished perception
when seen with clear eyes.

Night brings us starlight
that we might not see clearly
through the shroud of clouds.

Leftover heartbeats
find rhythms in other times
if they don’t give up.

Living a moment
does not mean that you own it,
for it’s existence.

Life in a bubble
prevents any lessons learned,
but just loneliness.

Nearing the ending
gives way for the beginning
of another view.
