ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

How’s it going for ya?  It’s been a bouncy road these
last few weeks up this ways.  To start off with and get
it out of the way,  my tumor turned out to be cancer and
now I’m waiting for further info on what to do about it.
The doctor cut out a lot of it,  but not sure if more will
need to be cut out.  We’re waiting for test results.  So
that’s all that there is about that for now.  Now another
topic.  Last week our septic lines froze and I called our
landlord.  He came and started working on it at 7 PM
and it was in the single digits then.  He worked on into
the night until 3 AM.  It had gotten down to 0 F degrees.
He managed to get the septic line thawed and insulated
so it would not happen again,  but I was afraid Calvin
was gonna get frostbite and pneumonia.  He seemed to
be OK.  He came by early the next morning to see if
our toilets were still flushing.  I said yes and thanked
him.  I told him to go home now and get off of his ankle.
He slipped on the ice a week or so ago and broke it
and now has it in a brace.  He told me that he was sad
that I have cancer,  because we’re his favorite tenants.
He said we’re like family to him.  I told him that I don’t
think God is quite done with me yet,  so we’ll be here for
a while longer :).  Ok,  so what else is going on around
here?  My weather program says that we might get a
lot of snow this week starting Tuesday.  Right now it’s
21 F degrees at 2:15 PM.  That was the high for today.
The temperature should begin dropping soon to about
5 below zero by morning.  I’ve gotta go and check on
Benny to see if he’s done playing in the snow hehehe.
I’ll be back.  I’m back.  Benny was waiting for me on
the steps.  He followed me back in here.  Milo was
sleeping on my side of the bed with his head on my
pillow hehehe,  but when he saw Benny,  he followed
him in here and I gave them both a treat so that they
would leave me alone and let me finish writing LOL.
Yeppers,  they’re contented now.  Now back to my
rambling hehehe.  According to my weather program,
all of the snowing should commence around midnight
Monday night.  We shall see hehehe.  So far it’s been
a rather mild winter for us up here compared to our
previous winters.  BUT,  it’s far from over.  We still
have a few months of winter left and it could become
nasty LOL.  Benny and Milo are now lying in their
doggy beds right beside me.  Hopefully they’ll sleep
for a while 🙂  Benny just sat up as if he could hear
my thoughts LOL.  He’s now looking up at me with
his little toothy grin :).  Boy,  it’s sure windy outside.
That wind is blowing pretty strong.  I can almost feel
our house shake hehehe.  Ok,  so it is a little bit being
my PC monitor is rocking a tad LOL.  This is a single
wide mobile home after all hehehe.  We haven’t any
wind block and we are on a hill so we do get the brunt
of the wind.  The nearest trees to us are about a 1000
feet away and they aren’t in the direction that the wind
blows LOL.  We get most of our hardest winds from
the south which is right outside our front door and if
you’ve ever seen any of the pictures that I’ve taken
outside our front door,  you know that there is only
a field in front of us with trees way off in the distance.
Yeppers and the blowing snow tends to pile up right
outside in our driveway and against the house LOL.
There have been times that I had to go and open the
screen door every 30 or 40 minutes to keep the snow
from piling up against it and blocking us in hehehe.
It’s a life that you either get used to or move hehehe.
I actually don’t mind it as long as we have heating
oil to fuel our furnace hehehe.  The snow is pretty.
I love to watch it snow and will often go outside with
the boys and play in it.  Although with my health as
it has been recently, I haven’t done as much playing
as I’ve done in the past.  Benny is kind of noticing
it.  He looks at me like,  you used to stay out here
with me a lot longer 🙂  I always try to make up for
it when I can.  I’ll see how far I can walk out in the
field of snow before turning back LOL.  When I go
to check the mail,  Benny will often follow me.  Milo
will from time to time.  They are good boys.  They
know to not get in the road and to sit and wait for
me to get the mail and then head back to the house
with me.  I hope I have many more years to share
with Judy and the boys as well as all of you.  I do
enjoy sharing my thoughts with you.  It actually
helps me deal with the problems that come and go.
We all have problems.  Yours might seem worse
than others,  but if you really look around,  you
might find that there are a few that have problems
that just don’t wave a large flag saying I’m sick
or my life is a mess.  I’ve always tried to keep my
whining down to a bear minimum LOL.  I’d rather
make others smile.  That always makes me feel
better.  Knowing that I have made one of you to
feel a little better through my levity always brings
me joy.  Judy spends most of her time trying not
to look at me when I’m  being silly which is most
of the time hehehe.  She knows if she looks at me
that she’ll break up into tears laughing hehehe.
She often has tears in her eyes when she finally
turns around to face me LOL.  I often make up
silly lyrics to popular songs or little tunes you
hear on commercials.  I can’t help it,  it’s the
silly within me LOL.  I thank God for the silly
outlook that he has put inside me,  for if it were
not for that,  I might of never found the profound
poet inside my mind.  Look around you now and
find the laughable moments that you might have
overlooked.  Those times might help you to look
passed the sadness and find a smile.  God gives
us choices to either laugh,  cry,  smile or frown.
Often what we’re crying about is something that
we should just accept and move on and find the
laughter.  If a loved one dies,  then remember
the good times and you might find yourself with
a great big smile.  To be able to share the good
times with anybody is a blessing and memories
make those times live on as do those loved ones.
Keep the love alive inside your heart and share
it with others to make those memories never end.
Let the bad times fade from sight as the good
times are more highlighted.  Of course we all have
bad times,  but you can learn to let them be just
lessons learned and times that are no more and
move on.  Now I believe I have rambled quite
enough and it’s time for me to be searching for
a word or phrase within all of my rambling 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 believe I found a decent title not too for back.
and now after checking I see that it has not been
used YET,  so here it goes,  being used hehehe.

The Silly Within Me

With thinking there is
a story to say
that might be silly
which right now’s OK.
The silly within me
from things I remember
often become as
a smiles burning ember.
The sights and the sounds
that somehow begin
are maybe laughter
from the silly within.
My imagination
that often runs wild
the silly within me
is timeframes compiled.
Painted from the morsels
of smile giving days
the silly within me
is what that displays.
Even the bad times
from yesterdays glance
the silly within me
gives right now a chance.
With every minute
that my eyes can see
I try hard to find
the silly within me.
Yet many days are
much harder to smile,
but the silly within me
makes better a while.

So there ya go.  I hope you enjoyed my rambling and
maybe even the poem LOL.  I know,  the poem’s not
that great,  but it’s all that my tiny brain thought of 🙂
I never have a clue of what I am going to write.  The
title often takes off with a life of its own as I type the
words hehehe.  It’s 16 F degrees right now at 4 PM 🙂
Yeppers,  the temperature is dropping and that wind
is still a blowing.  LOL my monitor almost looks like
a really weak pendulum as it swishes back and forth
keeping time with the breeze hehehehehehehehehe.
That ain’t no breeze.  That there be a freaking gust 🙂
LOL and it be,  Rocking me gently,  rocking slowly,
don’t ya know that’s how it blows.  Yea that wind’s
sure blowing this home around LOL.  Oops,  I found
once again the silly within me hehehe.  Anyways,
it looks like Milo will be needing to go pee being
he’s over there drinking water and that boy has
a small bladder LOL.  Oh well,  I reckon it’s time
for me to be telling you what I tell you almost every
week and that is,  I wrote some more poems and
haiku.  Yep,  10 more poems with one of the being
sort of Christmassy.  Also I wrote once again 22
haiku for all of my haiku lovers,  but I accidently
wrote one extra,  so there are 23 this week LOL.
Well,  ain’t I surprised!  Milo didn’t have to go out
and go potty this time.  He went right back to his
bed and laid down.  So,  I guess I can begin my
search for that not so elusive off switch,  but not
before I wish you a most wonderful weekend and
a blessings filled week.  Remember,  Jesus loves
you and we do too.  Now,  where is that dad gum
off switch hiding this time?  Hey,  you’re getting
pretty good at hiding.  I almost didn’t see you
there hiding behind my escape key hehehehe.
I said getting good as sort of an insult to ya if
you didn’t quite get the concept hehehehehehe.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill.  Judy,  Benny and Milo Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 +1 hehehehehehehehe 🙂

Time Marches On

Where many are walking
their footsteps will find
things they remember
from time after time.
As time marches on
and now meets tomorrow
we might find moments
that are filled with sorrow.
Yet we have choices
to change now today
how that we view things
in their wondrous way.
Time becomes windows
with us looking out
learning some lessons
and what they’re about.
We have a pathway
that soon will be gone
when we’re in Heaven
and time marches on.

A Snowflake Will Fall

With winters passion
comes snowflakes rejoice
speaking as doorways
with a white sort of voice.
Magical wonderful
scenes become found
as snowflakes will fall
and land on the ground.
One by one snowflakes
become as a painting
falling from the sky
that I’m not complaining.
For every snowflake
creates its own view
that which a snowflake
will most surely do.
Sometimes the snow mounds
are found oh so tall
within the moments
a snowflake will fall.
Particular pathways
are found day and night
as a snowflake will fall
to make such a sight.
Maybe as pictures
that only you see
a snowflake will fall
so delicately.

Within A Cloud

A sky of blue
holds fluffy shrouds
found within
some passing clouds.
Within a cloud
the magic starts
making pictures
time imparts.
Some as grey clouds
some as white
within a cloud
holds greatest sight.
Scenes transposing
views to see
within a cloud
a slight degree.
Stories written
day to day
within a cloud
is great display.
Painted loosely
in the sky
as the clouds all
float on by.
Within a cloud
the time begins
brought together
with the winds.

Another Moment

When time on Earth
is found at end
another moment
is around the bend.
All the problems
health displays
another moment
shines its ways.
Heavens doorway
gives us all
another moment
to stand tall.
It makes passed days
understood
another moment
bad and good.
Let God’s glory
shine His Son
another moment
said and done.
Let your lifestyle
show true love
another moment
from above.
Don’t let passed days
just be found
another moment
comes around.
Chances choices
can become
another moment
said and done.

I Can Recall

My life has been
so many things
some as nightmares
some as dreams.
I can recall
the yesterdays
that my life seemed
only greys.
My life’s moved on
from then and there
I can recall
from disrepair.
The choices I chose
or did not choose
showed me how
to win and lose.
The many times
of life’s Earthquakes
I can recall
so many mistakes.

The Rooftop White

With snow a falling
winter’s bringing
winters winds
just blowing singing.
Then as snowflakes
gather around
some land high
and some the ground.
On our rooftop
snow is landing
giving more
a place for standing.
It then becomes
a distant sight
faraway
a rooftop white.
As ones pass by
they can see
the rooftop white
a slight degree.
Snowflakes landing
gathering true
to make the rooftop
white to view.

Timid Waters

Beneath the ice
holds waters deep
breathing moments
that might seep.
Timid waters
rushing through
beneath the ice
of winters hue.
Flowing going
but not seen
timid waters
aquamarine.
Displayed as ice
on top to see
timid waters
are so free.
Currents driving
winters ways
timid waters
then  emblaze.
As the ice then
loses hold
timid waters
then unfold.
Bringing forth
a sight to see
timid waters
running free.

The Lighter Side

When problems come
through days ahead
you might find
you only dread,
but the lighter
side of days
can be with a
different gaze
Looking for the
better times
and not just
the days land mines.
The lighter side
of problems found
might hold laughter
sight and sound.
Look beyond the
troubled views
and then find
some better news.
Silly thinking
might preside
to some laughter
the lighter side.
Of course keep mind
of what that’s true,
but keep the lighter
side in you.

Looking Back Christmas

With decades ago
comes times I remember
looking back Christmas
found in December.
When I was younger
and time only showed
Christmases found with
a much lesser load.
Looking back Christmas
brings me to find
times that my journeys
were peace of mind.
With all the memories
comes greater days
looking back Christmas
through all the greys.
My life has found joyful
now that is seen
looking back Christmas
now is a dream.
Winters own portholes
become such a sight
looking back Christmas
that now I delight.
I know now that Christmas
is what lives inside
looking back now days
with Jesus applied.
Peaceful comes bountiful
as I impart
looking back Christmas
with a God beating heart.

Little Lantern

When the lights have
ceased to shine
little lantern
you’re so fine.
For when darkness
comes within
little lantern
you begin.
We are thankful
in the night
little lantern
with your light.
For when troubles
come our way
little lantern
you display.
Power lines will
often break
leaving us
found wide awake.
So little lantern
we are proud
with you here
your light endowed.

Haiku
for Jan 24,  2015

As we walk forwards
we leave footprints in our wake
that others will see.

Sometimes our journeys
are connected to others
that we do not see.

Patience is hard
when the obvious is seen
leaving you waiting.

Pointless is wishing
when the wishes are empty
without any good.

Losing direction
can often find you lessons
that you have needed.

Because becomes said
often when we have no clue
of the best answer.

Looking for peaceful
needs you to search from within
as a breath that’s breathed.

When death comes knocking
greet it with a smile of peace
for Heaven awaits.

Allowing anger
to control all that you do
will cause much regret.

Now’s but a shadow
of yesterdays that are gone,
that we’ve maybe changed.

When life gives lemons
let it help you remember
all of the good times.

A dog found barking
is often trying to talk
or then maybe not.

Mind set illusions
will often find a desert
with cactus thinking.

Winter winds subside
when its season has moved on
leaving us springtime.

A journey might  fail
when each footstep is a ghost
hidden in our fears.

Change is direction
needed for us to let go
of our passed mistakes.

Looking for mistakes
in the people that you see
might show you your own.

The wealth of others
has no bearing on your life
but that of wanting.

Belief in Jesus
will not get you in Heaven
for you must love Him.

With our coming death
a new life will then blossom
as angels are born.

Sometimes our mistakes
will turn into our blessings
as time moves onwards.

The truth that is said
will often be hard to hear
due to our choices.

Love will come alive
as your heart allows Jesus
to stoke the fire.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s wet and cold today, but not freezing 🙂 Nope, it’s
only 36 F degrees right now at 2:30 PM. The boys and
me are just hanging together as we do every Sunday 🙂
I have been still waiting for my test results and it’s just
about to drive me crazy. I had a doctors appointment
last Thursday, but my doctor was out sick and another
doctor saw me and removed my stiches, but left in the
packing just in case they find that the tumor is cancer.
She read my doctors notes and told me the test results
haven’t come in yet. It seems everything in Maine is
SLOW. I would just like to know one way or the other
if it is or isn’t cancer. At least then I would know sort
of what to plan ahead for. Anyways, that’s the way it
is up here in Maine. The boys have been good. They’re
both in here now. I just gave them some duck jerky.
That should pacify them for a while LOL. Today and
tomorrow is supposed to be above freezing, but then
Monday night drop back down to the teens. It’s weird
weather for up here. We’re loving our new bed. We
have more room and my feet don’t hang off the end of
it LOL. There’s more room for Benny and Milo also 🙂
They do from time to time lay with us, but not when
we’re getting ready to sleep. Only when we’re watching
TV. Of course there are a few exceptions hehehe such
as we’re just gonna take a nap. Then we don’t mind
them laying with us. Benny just now started barking at
the neighbors and Milo ran to see what it was about
thinking mom might be home. Nope, it’s way too early
for her to be coming home LOL. She won’t be home
until late tonight when Trudy gets home from Walmart.
So, now Benny is leaning up against my leg and Milo
is lying in his bed. These boys are something else 🙂
We’ve still got tons of snow outside. Of course after
today and tomorrow with the above freezing temps
I’m sure the snow will turn to a hard layer of ice and
I don’t care much for that. We might get some rain
tonight and tomorrow, but Monday night it might be
snowing. Of course it’s just a forecast/prediction and
in many views a mere guess of the weather hehehe.
It’s rare that the forecast is spot on 🙂 It seems that
Benny got tired of leaning up against my leg and has
decided to lie in his doggy bed. Actually neither of the
beds has a name on it. They switch off often and lie
in the one that isn’t occupied or the one that’s closest
to them, etc, etc, etc LOL. I don’t know what we’d
do without these boys. It seems as though they have
always been in our lives even though we’ve only had
them since 2012 hehehe. We got Benny in March of
that year and Milo in October, but they act just like
brothers that have always been. They are lying head
to head right now as they often do hehehe. They often
lie side by side. So, what else is going on around this
place? Not a whole lot! We’re hoping to be able to
afford to get our driver side car door fixed so it can
be opened from the outside. It’s gonna cost us $606
dollars. That’s our plans for when we get paid next
month. Hopefully our heating oil won’t run out LOL.
We’re sitting at a half a tank right now. If we didn’t
have problems, I would think something was wrong 🙂
I know God will make sure we have what we need as
He has always, but it doesn’t stop me from worrying.
LOL I guess I’m a worry wart. That’s what mom and
dad used to call me when I was a kid. I almost said
little boy, but I don’t think I was ever really little LOL.
Looking back at a few old pictures I was bigger than
my sister when I was 1 year old and she was 5 hehehe.
I always had big arms. I wish I had more pictures
of us as a family, but nobody in my family was much
into taking pictures. My dad took a few, but that’s
about all. It would of been nice if we had owned a
video cam, but then again thinking about that LOL,
maybe not hehehe. I wouldn’t want videos of me like
what I see of other families floating around hehehe
and yes I did find myself in some weird predicaments
as many children do 🙂 I guess I’m glad we didn’t
own a video cam hehehe. The temperature has gone
up a few more degrees now. It’s now 38 F degrees
at 4 PM. It’s supposed to be 45 degrees by morning
and then start dropping back down gradually and by
Monday evening be below freezing again. Weird,
yes I would say so LOL. Then for the rest of the
week it’s supposed to be in the teens and single
digits hehehe. It might get up to the lower 20’s but
that’s all I see in my weather program 🙂 Of course
some snow will be falling here and there hehehe as
always. It seems even the days that snow isn’t in the
forecast, it finds a way to fall. My stomach is talking
to me saying “FEED ME” 🙂 I guess it’s almost time
for me to be fixing me and the boys something to eat.
It seems that the duck jerky that I gave them a while
ago is still sufficing them. They aren’t bugging me
for something to eat LOL. They’re sound asleep 🙂
Milo is snoring quietly thank God hehehe. It gets
hard to think when his snore turns into a loud roar 🙂
I thank God for all of the blessings He has put in my
life. I am grateful for all of the chances that He has
given me to let me turn my life around. I pray that
I have a few more years to share with you, but if
not, then be it His Will be done. I’m sure that if my
time is up, then I’ve done all that He wanted me to
do. I’ve already lived longer than the doctors had
predicted with all of my health issues. The hands of
the clock of time tick on with the moments that we
are to live and then find peace in Heaven. I hope
that you are doing the best you can with your life,
for you might be gone tomorrow because tomorrow
isn’t guaranteed. Our actions here on Earth can be
as echoes in lives still living, so make them your
very best echoes. Now, I reckon 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 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 place of my
recollection that I always like to call RECOLLECT
VILLE. I think I found a decent title and now after
checking I see that it has not been used yet, but
it’s being used today hehehe.

The Chances

The days and weeks
through timeless phase
provide the chances
many ways.
Things we’ve done wrong
passed and gone
the chances come
from dusk to dawn.
We might be troubled
from our ages.
but the chances
God arranges.
Pages turning
flipping through
the chances come
to me and you.
We might be found
with ending phase
with no chances
then to gaze.
So take heed now
look and see
the chances now
for good to be.

Well, there ya go. I hope you understood the poem and
maybe even liked it 🙂 Also, I hope my rambling didn’t
bore you to sleep hehehe. It’s 5:30 PM and 39 degrees.
Not too bad. There’s not much else to tell you so I guess
it’s time to tell you what I tell you almost every week and
that is, I wrote some more poems and haiku yesterday 🙂
Yep, 10 more poems with 1 of them being a Christmas
poem. Also I wrote 22 more haiku for all of my haiku lovers
out there. I hope you can find 1 or 2 of either or both that
you like. Now I believe I need to begin my search for that
hardly 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 is that dad gum off switch
trying to hide this week hehehe? I see ya you silly little
whippersnapper. Trying to make like the second hand
of my watch don’t work too well being you are a little out
of sync with the original second hand LOL. Ya look sort
of like a lazy blur hehehehehehehe. Anyways, Gotcha,
see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill, Judy, Benny and Milo Pearce

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

Winters Ice

The chill of winter
comes so cold
winters ice
that times unfold.
Many rivers
lakes and ponds
winters ice
is dusk to dawn.
Many snowflakes
might be falling
giving winter
its own calling,
but with snowflakes
falling down
winters ice
is all around.
Some icicles
hanging true
winters ice
with wondrous view.
Mesmerizing
sights are seen
winters ice
a snowbound dream.
Then and now with
winters ice
pages display
so precise.
Moments gathered
to and fro
some with ice
and some with snow.

An Endless Sky

With clouds found floating
the sky gives way
to a seemingly
endless day.
Endless rhythms
perpetuating
an endless sky
infatuating.
The blue sky rises
into view
when the clouds are
found as few.
Scenes transposing
on the stage
an endless sky
will turn a page.
Imaginations
come alive
to help an endless
sky survive.
It’s with clouds
of fluffy form
that an endless
sky is born.
Many pictures
become true
an endless sky
of thereunto.
Painted with some
oceans depth
an endless sky
will take a breath.
Breathing in
the days ahead
an endless sky
is story’s read.
Word by word
the book of time
shows an endless
sky divine.

When Christmas Passes

As December moves on
from now to the past
many find Christmas
as shadows that casts.
Not with the joyful,
but with the pain
coming from wrongful
ways to attain.
When Christmas passes
it should live and breathe
that of our Savior
which we should believe.
Yet many people
think only of money
and how to buy things
maybe just funny.
Christmas should live on
as wonderful dreams
displayed by blessings of
Heavenly streams.
Poured down as waters
it should then unfold
when Christmas passes
with joyful behold.
Scattered with memories
to all the masses
there should be heartfelt
when Christmas passes.

Before The Dawn

While night shows stars
that twinkle so bright
the soon to come
is mornings light.
Before the dawn
the night displays
all it can
for one last gaze.
Nighttime’s chance
to show its stuff
minutes count
till not enough.
Before the dawn
it breathes a sigh
starlit wonders
in the sky.
Even moonlight
falls from view
when dawn breaks
to show anew.
The stars at night
will twinkle on
as best they can
before the dawn.

Never Forgotten

When life has ended
new begins
never forgotten
like the winds.
The memories
of when and where
become alive
in then and there.
Never forgotten
time moves on
dusk to dusk
and dawn to dawn.
So many ventures
live and breathe
within the time
our memories.
Never forgotten
as death is found
our memories
are still around.

Circle Of Life

Looking past outwards
and looking inside
the circle of life
becomes as outside.
Seeing the truthful
sometimes hard to see
while often hidden
from you and from me.
The circle of life
is our found perception
as many find
a daily deception.
Sometimes revolving
much closer yet far
not realizing
who that they are.
The circle of life
needs many to find
how we’re connected
to all of mankind.

Remembering

While I’m sitting
here to day
I’m remembering
far away.
Peering into
passed days glance
I’m remembering
second chance.
All the misery
I went through
I’m remembering
better view.
I can see now
my own choices
guiding me to
less rejoices.
Now while sitting
here I see
how I found
my misery.
Yet those days are
gone away
while remembering
gone astray.
Today gives chances
learned from then
while remembering
where I’ve been.
Lessons learned
from passed mistakes
helps me find
a new day breaks.
Remembering
the lessons learned
becomes more clear
how they were earned.

The Winds Of Time

The echoes of lifestyles
become a design
found as the pathways
of the winds of time.
Scenes become journeys
with our memories
as the winds of time
of oceans and seas.
Stages performed on
of lifetimes perception
finds winds of time
with a bit of deception.
So many envision
their lives in a story
written by authors
a little bit gory.
Yet it just might be
their own view of time
and not seeing clearly
what good there’s to find.
The winds of time
are blowing around
giving so many
the best to be found.
Yet it needs us to
look now and see
the winds of time
the best they can be.
Find all the good times
and lock on a smile
as the winds of time
blow on for a while.

Soon Is Gone

Life is counted
by a few
soon is gone
with just one two.
Counted essence
many find
soon is gone
with time to time.
Less perception
becomes more.
Soon is gone
comes through the door.
When now’s gone
the passed is viewed
soon is gone
what’s misconstrued.
Often when we
lose someone
soon is gone
is time’s begun
Don’t let life to
pass you by.
Soon is gone
the day we die.
Show your passion
love so true
soon is gone
might become you.
Let your heartbeat
find some peace
soon is gone
with great release.
Find the blessings
time to time
soon is gone
will still remind.
God’s Son Jesus
will not be
soon is gone
but found so free.
Moments Breathing
we live on
even when our
soon is gone.

Walking On Ice

With winter comes chills
and cold winds a blowing
even a few days
found often snowing.
Driveways are frozen
to pay up a price
slipping and sliding
while walking on ice.
With winters mornings
the sunshine will glare
reflecting on white snow
found everywhere.
The driveway turns slicker
as each day is found
walking on ice then
finds me on the ground.
Slipping and sliding
on ice not so smooth
becomes as a journey
to win or to lose.
For when I’m falling
it is not so nice,
so now I wear cleats when
walking on ice.

Haiku
for Jan 17, 2015

Life finds mysteries
hidden in some strange places
that many never look.

Without a heartbeat
our lives cannot become true
and we can’t exist.

The ghostly image
of our lives after we’ve died
can live in others.

When time finds its end
the beginning starts again
with another page.

Watching a child grow
you might see bits of yourself
within their journey.

Wondering lifestyles
finds many asking questions
about others lives.

Limits to true love
are often just misconceived
due to importance.

Two worlds will collide
as true love meets destiny
and it’s accepted.

Beyond our eyesight
holds the dreams that could come true
if we’d just believe.

Heaven awaits us
through the love of God’s Own Son.
Jesus is the key.

Patience for now
can show better tomorrows
as things go their way.

Winter brings snowflakes
along with some icicles
to be decorations.

Love finds some problems
when it’s not what we’re needing,
but just what we want.

The essence of time
becomes an inconvenience
when in a hurry.

Searching through some clouds
you might find some memories
painted in the sky.

Storms of yesterday
often live inside our mind
becoming baggage.

Nobody’s sometime
is the same as another,
for views are within.

Mornings arrival
brings new pages to write on
with our new choices.

Meaningless banter
can become a bad disease
that angers others.

Painting with actions
creates a good or bad sight
with you as the brush.

Allowing others
to tempt you to destruction
could cause your demise.

Emotional doors
will often open and close
at the wrong times.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s been another week in 2015 and Judy and I have been
trying to get used to the date 2015 LOL.  Me particularly :).
I forget how many times that I’ve gone and dated my poetry
2014 and when editing had to fix it LOL.  I still might have a
few slip by me,  but maybe not :).  I went to the doctor again
last Tuesday and he started to try and remove the cyst on
my shoulder and he found something more.  It was not a cyst.
It was a tumor and when I went back to see him Saturday he
told me that he thinks it’s cancer.  He sent for test results
and said he would call me and let me know one way or the
other.  Keep me in your prayers.  I want a few more years
with my family.  Plus I have a lot more to ramble about :).
Surely God’s not done with me :).  I’ve got a whole lot more
orneriness to spread hehehehe.  Anyways,  I having faith
that if it is cancer that it’s benign.  He removed what all
he could at the moment which was 2 inches long and about
an 8th of an inch thick.  So,  now it’s onto a hopeful brighter
topic hehehe.  The boys are doing well.  Judy is over at her
sisters house as she does every Sunday.  Oh yea,  we got
us a new bed.  Ok,  so it’s a used bed.  It’s better than the
one that we had LOL.  Our box springs were busted and
the mattress had springs come up out of it.  Plus our old
bed was only a full size and the new one is a queen size.
A lot more room and it’s in real good shape.  It cost us
80 dollars and well worth it.  It’s supposed to snow in
the morning.  About 1-3 inches expected.  That’s not too
bad.  We’ve still got tons of snow outside.  It snowed a
little bit last week.  It’ll still be white outside for a few
more months LOL.  I don’t see it melting any time soon.
Benny is loving it as always hehehe.  He’d be happy if
there was snow all year round LOL.  I do love snow,  but
hate ICE which the snow tends to turn into when it melts
a bit in the sun and then refreezes.  That’s what ends up
causing a lot of slips and slides.  Our landlord slipped
on his steps last week and broke his ankle.  Now he’s
got a little sign on his front door that says,  “Careful,
the steps are slick” hehehe.  Yep,  I’ve had more than
my share of slips and slides on our front steps hehehe.
One morning Milo slid down the steps in the snow and
ice.  Thank God he’s lower to the ground than I am or
he might of got hurt.  He just shook it off and did his
business and then came back inside :).  Milo is in here
with me right now lying down in the floor beside me.
Benny comes and goes as he keeps a look out for
mom/Judy to come home LOL.  Last time I looked,
he was on the recliner watching the front door :).  Our
little watch dog hehehe.  Every time I get up to go to
the bathroom or go get a soda water,  Milo will be
right behind me like a little shadow.  He’ll wait till I
get out of the bathroom or kitchen and then follow
me back in here and lay down in the floor beside me.
Gotta love them boys :).  I enjoy every minute with
them.  Judy and I are so blessed to have found one
another.  I enjoy just being in the room with her.
God found 2 people that lived thousands of miles
apart and put them together as one and then found
two little boys/dogs that fit in our lives like a glove
and blessed us with their love.  It has been a life
that I never could of imagined.  I pray that I have
many more days together with them,  but only God
knows.  I’m sure that many of you did the same as
me for a few years,  lived seeking perfection and
not what God had for us perfectly.  Sometimes our
greed can cause us to seek beyond what we truly
need and end up with misery.  Then there are
times that you might have gotten depressed and
let the blessings fade from view.  That is my life.
I thank God that He allowed me another chance
to find true love and happiness.  Yes of course,  I
have my share of bad days,  but it’s the bad days
that make the good days shine.  I am thankful for
my gift of writing,  because it helps me to deal with
my problems.  Also I am able to share with you my
life through the turnstiles of ups and downs.  I do
hope that you are finding the joy of life.  Life is
short and we need to learn to be happy even when
we’re thrown a rotten egg :).  I guess it’s time for
me to be venturing back through all that I have
written here to see if I can find me a good word or
phrase that I can use for the title for today’s 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 found a decent title that I’m sure
I haven’t used yet being it’s one long phrase,  but
I’ll check anyways hehehe.  Nope it hasn’t been
used,  so here goes,  being used LOL.

My Share Of Bad Days

When troubles come counting
and bad days surmise
time comes with chances
to find some blue skies.
Often my journeys
are with some potholes
found amidst storm clouds
just taking there tolls.
My share of bad days
might seem light to you,
but it’s the owner that
sees their own view.
You might be found with
some torment and pain
days each amounting
that seem as insane.
So let the good times
become as a tool
when there are times that
are oh so cruel.
It’s with the good times
that help all the greys
when I am found with
my share of bad days.

Ok,  it might not be one of my better poems,  but as I’ve
said before,  it’s what that came out.  I hope it makes at
least a little sense to you :).  If not,  sorry,  maybe next
time hehehe.  Milo is still lying in the floor beside me
and he’s snoring LOUDLY.  It makes it a little hard to
think hehehe.  None the less I shall finish this.  I didn’t
write any poetry yesterday being I was a little depressed
due to my doctors report that I got yesterday.  Oh well,
we all get down time to time and I’m no exception LOL.
Life goes on :).  It’s 19 F degrees right now at  6 PM.
It’s supposed to be 13 F and snowing by morning,  Yea.
So far the weather has been fairly mild or should I say
mild for up here LOL,  but I’m sure Mr Winter will
turn down the air and all.  He always does LOL.  Yep,
it is most definitely wintertime.  Judy and I are going
to try and save up to get our car door fixed next month.
If nothing else happens we should be able to do it :).
The driver side door handle on the outside is messed
up and does not work.  We’ve gotta climb in on the
passenger side and reach across and open the driver
side door LOL.  That does get a tad OLD ya know.
It’s gonna cost us $606 dollars to get it fixed.  They
will have to replace the inside of the door.  Anyways,
hopefully it will be fixed next month.  We’re having
it fixed at Yorktown Auto.  I know Judy will be happy
when it’s fixed.  She drives the car more than I do :).
Well,  that’s about all that’s going on around here :).
I guess 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.  Yep,  I wrote 10 more poems with
1 of them being sort of Christmassy.  Also once agin
I wrote 22 haiku.  Yep,  I wrote all of the poems and
haiku today hehehehehe.  I hope you find one or two
of either or both that you like.  Now,  it’s time for
me to be 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 blasted off switch hiding
this time?  Hehehe I see ya you little varmint. Did
you think I wouldn’t see you riding side saddle on
Milo as he goes to get a drink of water hehehehe?
Saw ya!  Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill,  Judy,  Benny and Milo Pearce

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

Mornings Calm

As night is ended
day’s begun
with the sight of
mornings sun.
The nights departure
leaves a trace
found within
the mornings face.
Scenes of grandeur
found by dawn
become essence
mornings calm.
With a portion
night has poured
mornings calm
is then assured.
Yet some mornings
might fall prey
to the troubles
yesterday.
Try and see what
can be done
mornings calm
with rising sun.
Find the goodness
to perceive
maybe just
a chance to breathe.
Look around you
dusk to dawn
and then find a
mornings calm.

When Our Time’s Done

If death came knocking
at your front door
would you be ready
for then evermore?
Would you be waiting
at Heavens front gate
with many questions
and that many debate?
When our time is done
the chances to change
are then as faces
we can’t rearrange.
Do you know Jesus
and have you made peace
with all your anger
that you need release?
One day we’ll arrive
with the sight of God’s Son
as time goes ticking
when our time is done.

The Winters Sun

With snow of white
the winters sun
shines so bright
on everyone.
The days are cold
with flakes of white
as stories told
from scenes delight.
As winters sun
displays its view
a new days done
for me and you.
The snow of white
paints many scenes
day and night
and betweens.
The winters sun
brings forth a gaze
northward done
some snowy days.

Lost Bird

A tiny bird
in snow of white
seems so lost
within my sight.
A small lost bird
of winters way
wanders around
from day to day.
A tiny bird
on mounds of snow
hops around
in oh so cold.
Yet it flutters
wings deployed
on what all
it has enjoyed.
A small lost bird
not lost at all
loves to watch
the snowflakes fall.

Joyful Memories

Those days remembered
of joyful hue
live as the echoes
of times oh so new.
Christmastimes blessings
wonderful sights
now are the magical
days I delight.
Joyful memories
painted with time
live as the wonderful
days on my mind.
Joyful the journeys
magical scenes
painted with colors of
reds,  blues and greens.
Wonderful moments
that my mind still sees
become as remembered
joyful memories.

Floating Dreams

Waves come rolling
making sounds
such as lapping
on the ground.
Upon a beach
there’s ocean waves
rolling in
those sunny days.
Floating dreams
so faraway
oceans deep
from day to day.
Waves bring portions
of the scenes
as so many
floating dreams.
Passions doorway
opens wide
floating dreams then
come inside.
A paradise
ones hand in hand
floating dreams
found on the sand.
Waves come crashing
on the shore
floating dreams
forevermore.
Remembered times
of her and I
floating dreams
shall never die.

To Judy Pearce
From Bill Pearce 🙂

Just Because

With our pathways
come our choices
with some answers
saddened voices.
Many people
blame their flaws
on the answers
just because.
Not allowing
truth to be
what they chose
from history.
Just because
becomes ones view
when they answer
me and you.
Yet that answer
does not show
why you really
did them so.
So if someone
ask you why
answer truly
do not lie.
Just because
is not so great
because it’s often
a little late.

The Blinding Snow

The sun shines brightly
on the snow.
It’s hard to see
where all we go.
The blinding snow
of winters way
becomes a hindrance
day to day.
It acts like mirrors
said and done
reflecting bright
the daily sun.
The blinding snow
is also cold
winter displays
times unfold.
The suns reflection
that I see
becomes a snowbound
history.
The times I’ve sought
where I’m to go
I only saw
the blinding snow.

The Distant Trees

Looking out
I see the trees
snowy fields
of whitish seas.
My distant sight
sees high and low
trees all covered
with the snow.
Sparkling essence
in the sun
the distant trees
dial 911.
The weight of snow
upon their view
makes it hard
to stand there true.
Yet I find some
joy in these
found within
the distant trees.
Sparkling brightly
in the sun
until the moments
day is done.

A Beautiful World

So many pages
of our history
get tainted by words
that ones don’t agree.
A beautiful world
lies here now today
that needs us to find
a more peaceful array.
We’ve allowed our anger
and hatred of others
to become killers
of sisters and brothers.
Let’s pull together now
and try and agree,
this wonderful world
has so much to see.
Look passed your differences,
find common ground
for a beautiful world
is there to be found.

Haiku
for Jan 11,  2015

With a few footsteps
yesterday becomes today
leaving memories.

While winter winds blow
they might give snowflakes a ride
if the weather’s right.

Soon now will pass on
leaving only some shadows
that we’ll remember.

Portions of winter
might bring forth some ice and snow
with some freezing rain.

Looking for perfect
might leave you feeling empty
when you see the flaws.

The echoes of time
that we recall from our past
might show some regret.

Today is a chance
that has many beginnings,
so do not give up.

Less might be better
if it’s what you only want
and don’t really need.

A glimmer of hope
comes from the tiniest things
that we overlook.

With just a moment
you can change all that you are,
so why not begin.

Death is not the end,
but the beginning of life
of everlasting.

Windows of lifestyles
are often pretty dirty,
but hidden from view.

Ones anxiety
can cause them many problems,
so take time for prayer.

A glimpse of today
from yesterdays perception
could find you despair.

Our lives are as links
connected invisibly,
each one together.

Heaven awaits us
while many still will choose Hell
as their direction.

Living in the now
brings chances for much better,
for yesterday’s gone.

Resting on laurels
might one day just fade away.
Try to do better.

Each snowflake that falls
has a personality
that is of its own.

Nighttime images
might create many shadows
that we misconceive.

Leftover heartbeats
from a devastating ride
might have some baggage.

Hearing ones wording
does not mean you understand.
It might be deeper.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

How was your New Years?  I hope you had a happy and
safe one.  The year 2015 is now upon us and I find myself
still signing stuff 2014 and having to go back and change
it as I did last year when it turned 2014 LOL.  In a month
or so I’ll finally get used to typing 2015,  but until then my
mind will still cause me to revert to 2014 and have to go
back and correct it hehehe.  So did you make any type of
New Years resolutions?  The only one I ever make is to
try and do better this year.  It’s about the only one that
I’m fairly sure that I can keep LOL.  It snowed quite a bit
last night.  This morning Benny and Milo needed to go out
and potty and I could almost read the words in Milo’s face
when he looked outside at the steps and all LOL.  Sort of
like,  “No not again”.  Benny was out the door and ready
to play.  As soon as Milo got down the steps and did his
duty,  he was back clambering up the steps to get back
inside,  but Benny wanted to play in it,  because he loves
snow.  I had to keep calling his name and he finally gave
in and came back inside.  I knew the snowplow would soon
be here and I didn’t want Benny getting plowed under :).
Our neighbor Mark once again came over and shoveled
our steps and around our car.  I never asked him to do it.
I have managed since 2007,  but I guess he can see that
my health isn’t getting any better and he’s just trying to
be nice.  He came over yesterday evening and asked me
to take him to town so he could buy some more kerosene
for his heater,  so I donned my clothes and we headed
out.  He wanted to stop at the grocery store so to buy
them a few groceries while we were in town so we did.
Their car is leaking radiator fluid and isn’t running too
well either.  He wanted to stop at Burger King and get
him and his better half a burger and said for me to get
Judy and I something,  so I got us 2 Big Kings and some
onion rings.  Anyways,  Mark is a nice guy.  I hope him
and Charlene hang around longer than all of our previous
neighbors.  I do still miss Brian my fishing buddy.  Him
and his wife and boy were our neighbors for a year or
so.  I also miss our other neighbor Carol and her boys.
We’ve had some nice neighbors.  Paul and his wife lived
behind us and were here before we moved up and they
moved away a couple of years ago.  We’re sort of out
in the boonies,  but I like it for the scenery and ability
to be able to play my conga drums without bothering
anybody hehehe.  I asked all my neighbors if I was
too loud and they said they couldn’t hear the conga
drums,  but a few of my neighbors have come over
to watch and listen to me play a few times :).  OK, So
what else is there to talk about?  It’s sort of quiet
around here today.  Judy didn’t have to go over her
sisters house today being her sister stayed home
due to the nasty weather conditions.  So,  we’re all
here today.  I think Benny and Milo are a little bit
confused though.  Hehehe Friday when we went into
town to pay the light bill,  we took Benny and Milo
with us.  The funny thing was that when I opened
the front door and said come on boys.  Benny ran
down the steps and headed for the field and turned
around to wait for me LOL.  I said,  Benny we’re
not going for a walk in the field today, we’re going
for a ride and I opened up the back door.  He came
a running and hopped right in.  Milo came outside
with Judy and hopped in and then Judy and I got in
and we were off to town.  I will have to take the
boys out for a walk soon.  I haven’t lately due to
being under the weather,  but aside from my many
allergies, arthritis, etc,  I’m feeling a little better.
Life goes on hehehe.  I just poked my head out
and it’s 21 F degrees and sleeting now.  Yep,  it’s
a nasty day.  I don’t mind the snow,  but the sleet
and freezing rain I can do without.  Yep,  it’s days
like today that I’m glad to be retired with nowhere
that we have to be.  I’m glad that I don’t have to
worry about Judy being on the road this evening.
I can tell by the lack of traffic on the road that
the road must be bad.  It’s not like we get tons of
traffic being we live on the county road,  but we
do have a few logging trucks and cars that drive.
Although,  I haven’t heard a snowplow in a good
while,  which could also mean,  that the roads are
slick.  Maybe they’ll come and sand the roads in
a bit if they haven’t already done so on their last
pass.  None the less,  I checked our mail yesterday
and it don’t run today,  so there’s no need for me
to have to walk out there thank God LOL.  It looks
like 2015 is slowly making footprints in the days.
We shall see where the footsteps lead to.  Judy
I and the boys will just keep on keeping on as the
pages turn in time.  God has continued to watch
over us as He has from the beginning.  We are
finding blessings with each corner that we turn.
Our little homestead has many miracles found
within it.  I feel blessed to be able to share my life
with Judy and the boys.  Yet,  there are times that
I let self pity to live and breathe just as many of
you might also.  It’s those times that I begin my
prayers even more so and let God show me the
many blessings that I have.  Of course I have
health issues and financial stress,  but I am able
to see the beauty of winters snow and autumns
fall colors along with all that is in between such
as flowers that bloom.  I’m able to watch all the
clouds form paintings in the sky.  Most of all I am
able to share this with Judy and our boys.  Thank
You God for all that You have done and will do.
Now I believe it’s time for me to be taking a lil
trip 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 always like to call RECOLLECT VILLE.  It
looks like I found a title about half way down :).
It might turn out silly,  but I haven’t a clue at
this point hehehe.  So here goes.

I Don’t Mind The Snow

With wintertime’s perception
and the plows that come and go
I find I hate the sleet and ice,
but I don’t mind the snow.
The season has much beauty
with its white snow on the ground
and trees that glitter brightly
when sunlight shines all around.
No,  I don’t mind the snow
for it has that wondrous view,
that with the snowflakes falling
makes the days so fresh and new.
Then as winters highways
are filled with wondrous scenes
the snow becomes a painting
that is filled with many dreams.
The winters days come shining
as December comes and goes
and my heart finds the magic
for I don’t mind the snow.
The snow gives its surroundings
the glimmers Heaven sent.
No,  I don’t mind the snow
for it has a great accent.
It paints the days around me
with its snow white scenery.
No,  I don’t mind the snow,
because it give so much to see.

Ok,  I know many of you won’t like the poem.  Oh well!
That’s life as a poet hehehe.  Judy and the boys are in
here with me.  Benny and Milo are lying right behind me.
I’m trying not to roll over them hehehe.  Actually Benny
is to my left and almost behind me with his head resting
on a leg/wheel of my chair LOL.  I guess they’re a little
confused,  because mom’s still here hehehe.  They had
gotten used to her leaving every Sunday.  I’m glad she
stayed home.  Those roads have gotta be nasty.  Yes
they are drivable,  but still dangerous.  Our car still has
Texas tires on it and it don’t do well on ice and snow.
One day when we have some money we will have to at
least buy two winter tires for the front or the car.  They
cost more than they did for our little Mazda hehehehe.
Of course our Mazda only had 13 inch wheels and this
one has 16 inch wheels.  Quite a difference in size and
price.  So,  I guess I need to be telling you what  tell
you almost every week.  I wrote some more poems and
haiku.  Yep, I wrote 10 more poems with 1 of them being
sort of Christmassy.  Also once again I wrote 22 haiku
for all of my haiku lovers out there.  I hope you find
1 or 2 of either or both that you like.  I guess now it’s
time for me to be searching for that hardly elusive
off switch,  but not before I wish you a most awesome
New Year and a blessings filled week.  Remember,
Jesus loves you and we do too.  Ok,  so where are
ya hiding you little whippersnapper?  I see ya you
little varmint.  Will you ever freaken learn that I do
ever so often use my nose drops LOL?  Aside from
you not being completely hidden,  I do have allergies
ya know LOL.  Will you ever learn????????????
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill,  Judy,  Benny and Milo Pearce

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

Starlight Moon

Nights of white
with light in tune
are found on snow
a starlight moon.
Scenes are found
so wondrously
the sights and sounds
that my eyes see.
A starlight moon
reflects upon
the snow at night
until it’s dawn.
With glows bestowed
upon the ground
a starlight moon
is surely found.
Yet when morning
comes to be
a starlight moon
is history.

Decembers Sun

A new day’s dawned
with change of date
as Decembers sun
finds seasonal fate.
January’s morning
comes into view
as Decembers sun
says how do you do.
The meetings of time
connect to and fro
as Decembers sun
sees January snow.
The minutes tick onwards
as each day is found
when Decembers sun
waits time going around.
For as December
finds it is the past
January displays
its own type contrast.
So as the moments
of Decembers sun
fade from the pages
to now what is done,
the stories remembered
from its own display
are still filled with magic
from that Christmas Day.

A Brand New Year

With each day
the shadows show
a brand new year
will soon bestow.
The minutes ticking
thereunto
a brand new year
comes into view.
While ones dream
of better lives
a brand new year
gives hope that thrives.
Our yesterdays
only find
a brand new year
with change of time.
Many choices
need sincere
to make much better
a brand new year.

Looking Forwards

Throughout our ventures
so many will find
seasonal pathways
that stay on their mind.
While looking forwards
those passed days return
as all the memories
that time will not burn.
Sometimes acceptance
of shadows we cast
makes it much easier
for you to move passed.
While looking forwards
to futures display
the passed will still live on
as its special day.
Yet some acceptance
and forgiveness too
can make looking forwards
a much better view.

Tomorrow’s Sunshine

With rays of light
just shining through
tomorrow’s sunshine
might then too.
Yet some storm clouds
might be found
hiding sunshine
all around.
Tomorrow’s sunshine
might still show
even with
the chance of snow.
Behind the clouds
of fluffy white
tomorrow’s sunshine
is in sight.
For it still shines
its own way
tomorrow’s sunshine
day to day.

Noctilucent

Shining glowing
in the night
eyes of a cat
seem very bright.
Found just stalking
there and to
noctilucent
eyes in view.
Sometimes purring
silently
eyes are shining
bright to see.
Then as nighttime
fades away
all that’s seen
is light of day.
That cat meowing
in the night
noctilucent
fades from sight.

The Healing Thoughts

Finding some peaceful
in moments of pain
is sometimes hard for
ones to attain.
The healing thoughts
from Lord God above
can give you peaceful
filled full of love.
When torments gathered
at your door of time
seek the healing thoughts
from Lord God Divine.
Let not your worries
to leave you despair.
Find the healing thoughts
through God’s love and care.
Finding some peaceful
needs you now to pray,
then the healing thoughts
will take you away.
Yes many moments
will still find you pains,
but the healing thoughts
will calm hurricanes.
Maybe not your viewpoint,
but you will soon see
the healing thoughts will
change what will be.
Sometimes some bad times
need to be found
for the healing thoughts
to find common ground.

Frosted Windows

Winters coldness
brings to me
frosted windows
that I see.
Scenes as crystals
in my sight
frosted windows
scattered light.
Through the windows
that I view
frosted windows
are askew.
Scenes transposing
how they are
frosted windows
can’t see far.
Disarraying
all the time
frosted windows
change sunshine.

Soon The Snow

January’s sunshine
displays great delights.
Mesmerizing snowfall
into the nights.
Looking outside now
I can see clearly
snow from December
that fell down so dearly.
Soon the snow will fall
much deeper yet
and make the day end
with a wondrous sunset.
Soon many snowflakes
will fall from the sky
and with winters wind then
learn how to fly.
Soon the snow will
begin its own flight
throughout the daytime
and into the night.

Open Your Mind And Dream

Let lose of your thinking
and dream of delight.
Think about the things
that could be in sight.
Open your mind and dream
of the things you can’t see
and let yourself to find then
what really could be.
Don’t let your dreams to die
letting nightmares take over.
Open your mind and dream
of a field full of clover.
Dream of a passion sky
with clouds all fluffy white.
Open your mind and dream
of a magical sight.
Don’t forget to dream
of some wonderful days
when maybe right now
is just but a haze.
Yet don’t lose reality,
for truth needs be found,
but open your mind and dream
of a smile not a frown.
For maybe one day
that dream will come true
on a day that you’re ready
for it within you.

Haiku
for Jan 3,  2015

It’s a brand new day
with chances found within it
that need us to take.

Never finds someone
in the midst of ever,
so do not lose hope.

Passion is a place
deep within a true heartbeat
that shows emotions.

Losing direction
can get you where you’re going
but not as quickly.

Wintertime’s snowflakes
become the only views seen
as time moves along.

Searching for springtime
might seem as just a glimmer
of your remembrance.

As hours pass by
each second presents doorways
for choices to make.

When we’re with sadness
a smile can be found inside
from times long ago.

Each cloud that floats by
shares a story of itself
written in the sky.

Seen from faraway
our planet looks so tiny
as does those we see.

We’re never alone,
for even in seclusion
Jesus is still there.

Making an entrance
could expose your weaknesses
as you stumble in.

Life is just a thought
that God has given us all
that became much more.

Winning and losing
is just a viewpoint we see,
for which is better.

The gleaming sunshine
is hidden behind the clouds
as winter proceeds.

Believing in not
gives you only emptiness
found deep inside.

The cold of winter
brings chills to the days ahead
with flavors of snow.

Learning from mistakes
often makes us much stronger,
but sometimes does not.

Hearing the wind blow
awakens many seasons
deep inside the mind.

While truth is better,
many will overkill it
saying what is wrong.

A minute in time
gives us all a chance to change
with every second.

Beyond yesterday
is the doorway to today
that we need to shine.
