Combined With Seriousness

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s been a fairly nice week this passed week.
The weather has been not too bad.  It’ nice
and cool today,  but sort of rainy.  Judy and
I took a drive to Walmart just a little while
ago to get us some more soda waters AKA
Pepsi and Mountain Dew hehehe.  Benny and
Milo enjoyed the ride.  We stopped off and
got us some hamburgers from Burger King
for our dinner later on today.  It looks like
we might have a bit of cool weather for the
rest of the week.  Today’s high is supposed
to be 56 F degrees and right now it’s 53 F.
Tomorrow’s high is supposed to be 60 F or
so with Tuesdays high around 50 F degrees.
Yep,  it ain’t nothing like Texas weather 🙂
Summer is just around the corner and we’re
still having morning frosts up here hehehe.
I have to keep tabs on the weather so not
to leave Judy’s plant outside and get frozen
again.  It’s come back alive,  but so far it
has not sprouted any more flowers.  Maybe
if the sun ever decides to stay out for a bit,
the plant might bloom again hehehe.  Yet,
for now,  we see mostly clouds.  I’m glad
that Texas is getting a reprieve from the
rains.  I am sad that my bro. Mark and his
family got flooded out in Oklahoma and
are now having to find somewhere to live.
I imagine this is a problem for many with
all of the floods,  tornadoes,  hurricanes,
Earthquakes, landslides and fires.  Most
of these problems are a yearly thing,  but
it doesn’t make it any easier I’m sure.  So
I send my prayers to you all.  Up this ways,
the weather has not been all that bad.  We
had a ton of snow and when it melted it did
take it’s toll on some low lying areas,  but
Judy and I are fine.  I took the boys out for
a walk in the field Monday and Benny did
more than walk LOL.  He zoomed passed
me as he always does,  but Milo decided
to hang back.  He only came out a little
ways.  It was a good day,  but cloudy as
always hehehe.  Tuesday Judy and I took
a ride over to the graveyard and she put
some lights that she bought from Walmart
a week or so ago around her dads grave.
We both took a few pictures of it and on
the drive there and back I took pictures
of the scenery as I always do 🙂  I love to
take pictures especially when the scenery
seems to be asking for a photograph LOL.
So,  what else has gone on this passed
week?  Judy’s brother Ricky is not doing
well at all.  He’s in the hospital now with
heart problems and kidney failure.  Keep
him and the family in your prayers.  I’m
sure that God is in control and He hears
our prayers.  OK,  so what else is there to
yammer about?  Oh yea,  Judy and I took
the boys out in the field for a little nature
stroll Friday 🙂  Milo was all into it that
day.  It might of had to do with the fact
that Judy (MOM) was with us this time.
He went running on ahead of us with a
smile on his little face.  Both Benny and
Milo were happy campers.  They ran
around side by side and played.  I had
a dickens of a time with Benny’s camera.
It kept falling off of his collar.  I’ll have
to find a better way to attach it so that it
won’t fall off when we go strolling LOL.
I’m sure I’ll figure out something hehehe.
In the mean time,  Judy and I get plenty
of pictures of them.  He’ll have to wait
to take more pictures of me hehehehe.
Maybe next time he’ll get some pictures
of mom (Judy).  Yes we’re a slight weird,
but weird’s what makes the world go
around.  If it were not for silly people,
the world would become boring hehehe.
Sometimes a silly thought or something
you saw will bring you out of sadness.
Some weird things can become ventures
of a lesson learned.  Don’t ever think that
silliness or weirdness is not necessary.
Combined with seriousness,  it all brings
the world together.  Now I believe it’s
time for me to be taking my little venture
back through all that I’ve written here,
to that place of my recollection to see
if I can find me 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 that I always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE.  I believe I may
have found a decent title and now after
checking,  I see that it has not been used
as of yet,  but used it shall be,  by me.
Here goes nothing,  but I hope not LOL.

Combined With Seriousness

Beyond what’s silly
might find what’s true
and then what’s serious
might live in you.
Those things we think of,
those times so sad
a silly emotion might
make you so glad.
Combined with seriousness
silliness strives
to take on a moment
where joyful arrives.
A little bit of laughter
through a serious note
might help your journey
to prayerfully float.
Often ones seriousness
will bring them down,
but a little bit of silly
might remove that frown.
So let your journeys
find laughter in stride
combined with seriousness
silly inside.

So did ya like the poem?  I hope that you
understood it 🙂  I always have a dose of
silliness to dish out,  but I do have my many
serious moments.  Just ask Judy 🙂  Yes we
all need to get in silly mode from time to
time,  but don’t stay there.  It can cause
problems and even run people away from
you.  Judy just went in the kitchen and got
her chips hehehe.  I’m about ready to eat
my burger.  I’m guessing that she’s ready
for hers 🙂  It’s 52 F degrees now.  I don’t
think it made it to 56 F degrees.  I guess
it’s time for me to be telling you what I
tell you almost every week and that is,
I wrote a few more poems and haiku to
share with you.  Yeppers,  10 more poems
with 1 being sort of Christmassy hehehe.
Also once again I wrote 22 more haiku
for all of the haiku lovers out there 🙂  I
hope you can find something that you
like.  Now I believe it’s time for me to
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’s that
off switch that’s lacking terribly in hiding
skills hehehe?  I see ya you little varmint.
Hiding behind a triple A battery does not
constitute hiding,  being it’s so tiny and
you’re,  well let’s just say,  you’re not.
Gotcha,  see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill,  Judy,  Benny and Milo Pearce

Now it’s on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehehe 🙂

Heart and Soul

As people come together
and time pays its toll
there might be some echoes of
a little heart and soul.
Seasons that ones battled
might unite will and way
through heart and soul moments
of another kind of day.
The ones now stood guarding
might change their command
with a heart and soul battle
to help ones to stand.
Too many times we worry
about stupid little things
like journeys through colors
or ethnic type rings.
Our heart and soul is
what should bind our mind
together as brothers
for all of mankind.
We shouldn’t be fighting
for greed and of hate,
for we should be finding
our similar trait.

Weeds Of Life

With so many flowers
of day and of night
often it’s hard to
see weeds of life.
Sometimes the weeds
will hide in the mix
while they continue
getting their fix.
The view of a moment
might have hidden true
some weeds of life
that somehow snuck through.
People with lifestyles
poisoned with gain
for what that they only
seek to attain.
The weeds of life
will just suck us dry
if we don’t stay strong
in our by and by.
Finding the strength to
do what that’s right
and not get consumed
by the weeds of life.

The Days And Nights

With views of the night sky
and that found by day
the days and nights
create their own way.
Displaying their ventures
with clouds and of stars.
The day shows a rainbow
and night shows us Mars.
The days and nights
become friends of time
in ways of conjoining
a wondrous design.
Night brings us pathways
of scenes in the dark
sometimes with echoes of
dogs that will bark.
Day brings us similar
yet we can see
the things that were hidden
from you and from me.
The day displays doorways
of clouds floating by
while nighttime displays them
as shadows in the sky.
The passage of time
forms skyline charade
acting out portions of
life’s lemonade.
Found as the portholes
of darkness and lights
this is the story of
the days and nights.

Beyond A Breath

While many breathe,
a breath fades away
that might of stood
beside us each day.
We might not perceive
of the ones nearing death
for we have not seen
what’s beyond a breath.
So,  take time to look
and see what’s inside
a heart that is there
that we thought had lied.
Often it’s but only
our own point of view
found beyond a breath
of then thereunto.
Now as you read this
take heed and refine
your days perception
of ones time to time.
For,  beyond a breath
might show you the key
of what that’s true
in all that you see.

Summer Soon Comes

Today as the values
of springtime display
June is beginning
with the ending of May.
Summer soon comes
as the hours connect
showing us truly
their wondrous affect.
Now as the flowers
display all their colors
summer soon comes
with so many others.
Like seasons book
with pages to turn
summer soon comes
with more to discern.
The heat of the season
reflects its own style
some with cool breezes
blowing a while.
Summer soon comes
with rains falling down
sometimes too often
and sometimes not found.
The seasonal doorway
beats many drums
found after May then
summer soon comes.

Look For A Smile

Look for a smile
as your day begins
even if you have to
fill it with grins.
Don’t let your past
to wear on your mind,
for there is better
for future to find.
Don’t let the darkness
of yesterdays dawn
to be your lifestyle
as time moves along
For you might find
a darker tomorrow
filled with but only
all of your sorrow.
Look passed the times
you did not do well
and find today
a better detail.
Look for a smile
or maybe a grin
to help you today
and all that’s therein.

That Special Time

There’s a special time
that lives in my heart
a wonderful time
that shall not depart.
It is so magical
as it comes to view
that special time
with a wonderful hue.
Some think I’m crazy,
but I could care less,
for Christmas always
I daily possess.
That blessed moment
that never shall end
for it’s within me
as Decembers wind.
I think of it always
and its great design
while its within me then
that special time.

Midnight Expressions

The evening grows darker
as nighttime prevails
midnight expressions soon
show their details.
The stars begin twinkling
as the sun fades away,
then the moon’s shining
with its own display.
The hours tick onwards
as nighttime moves on
with midnight expressions
that sing along.
Songs of the twilight
begin shining true
midnight expressions
within their own view.
The night shows the twinkle
of a stars own design
midnight expressions
that live in my mind.
Designs of the zodiac
that paint up the skies
midnight expressions
that God did surmise.

Angels All Around

Those times in my past
that I struggled on
I found I had angels
helping me along.
I now can look back
and see angels wings
helping me daily
to do the right things.
Many times I stubbornly
still tried to prove
I was truly ready
to fit in the groove.
Angels all around
still came guiding me
helping me to be
who I needed be.
We all have some angels
that stand clear as day
friends there to guide you
to the right way.
There’s angels all around
but some are not seen
and they’re just waiting
to be your tambourine.
To help you see yourself
in the right kind of light
angels all around
to show you what’s right.

My Imagination

Times when I worry
of my devastation
often it’s but only
my imagination.
We each might conjure
up our own pain
from all the times
we sought so insane.
My imagination
can take me away
letting in hopeful
of a different array.
When I’m depressed
I find I can see
my imagination
as a hope driven key.
Imagining a moment
maybe not true,
but it changed sadness
to a much brighter hue.
Yet my imagination
needs to know when
to cease of its journey
letting truthful begin.

Haiku
for May 30,  2015

Looking passed the clouds
the sky becomes as starlight
when nighttime prevails.

Marching to your style
might find you marching alone
if your style is bad.

The mast of a ship
with its sail opened up wide
finds ways to travel.

Beyond our vision
is a world that is hidden
in our perception.

Truth has two meanings
with one meant to hurt others
and one which to not.

The echoes we hear
might turn out to be our own
that ones heard us say.

Meaningful chatter
might lose all of its meaning
as noise hides the facts.

Yesterdays glimmers
could possibly be nightmares
that should of been dreams.

So many people
leave themselves on chopping blocks
of stupidity.

A mind within minds
hold another realm of thought
that is found in depth.

Without True belief
Heaven and its existence
is still holding true.

A light within us
might become a blinding thought
that guides our future.

Windows of insight
can display many moments
some good and some bad.

When catching wind
let your hands grasp its power
and then let it flow.

A minute from now
leaves seconds to be counted
if you are real bored.

Various lifestyles
display footsteps in patterns
that mock each other.

The love of money
can turn into dynamite
destroying your life.

Now is a moment
that shall soon fade from our sight
while displaying then.

Passionate people
will often find ones not so
and get hurt real bad.

Allowing others
to affect your emotions
gives them great power.

Momentary times
will come and go in our lives
that become heartbeats.

The sun shining bright
can either become blinding
or help us to see.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s been a busy week and more for my little Mrs. Judy
She’s been over her brothers house cleaning, getting
it ready for him when he gets home from the nursing
home Wednesday. A lot of her family have been with
her helping. They’ve pulled up carpet and painted the
walls and floors. Ricky won’t recognize the place when
he gets home. I wish I could of helped, but I have not
been doing so well health wise and plus, somebody’s
gotta stay home with the boys. Judy just called and
said our grandson Christian wants to come over here
and stay. He was helping Judy and the others with
the cleanup and he’s tired and not feeling well. So
it looks like Judy will be bringing him here. Benny
is barking, so that might mean Judy is here. Yep,
so now Christian is here. I guess he’ll play games
on his phone or maybe get on Judy’s PC and find
some games to play. As long as he doesn’t make
a lot of noise while I’m trying to write. It’s pretty
nice outside. Only 73 F degrees. Judy’s flowers
came back alive. I had put two aspirin in a small
glass of water and let them dissolve then poured
it over the plants and in the vase. I might need
to cut out a few limbs that did not recover, but I
believe it will be OK. So now Judy only needs one
more plant to put in the front basket. So what else
is going on around this place. Me and Christian
have been here sitting and talking while I took
a breather from writing. Milo is in his spot in the
floor sleeping. Benny is at his guard post in the
living room as he is always LOL. It looks like
we might get some rain tomorrow. and maybe
even Tuesday. I noticed that Texas is getting
a bit of rain along with a few other states. Yet
I don’t see no rain for California. That state is
in dire need of some rain. Let’s keep those that
are in need in prayer. Boy, that wind is blowing.
I have a lot of windows opened throughout the
house hehehe. It’s almost like a wind tunnel in
here LOL. Although at the moment it’s calmed
down a bit. I’m trying to converse with Christian
as I write, but it’s difficult hehehe. I might fix
me and him something to eat in a little while, but
we ate breakfast just a couple of hours ago 🙂
He has been trying to down load a game to his
phone and he finally got it done. He just said
thank God, because he was afraid it wouldn’t
work on his phone, but it does 🙂 Looking out
the window I now see that many of the trees
have finally sprouted leaves. Of course we’ve
had a few freezing frosty mornings that have
slowed things down. We had another freeze
Friday night, but I brought Judy’s flowers in
this time. It doesn’t look like we’ll be getting
another freeze, at least not in the next week
or so, but that could change. It was snowing
Saturday morning hehehe. I waited for it to
pass and warm up a bit before I took Judy’s
plant back outside hehehe. Yep, snow in May.
In the later days of May at that LOL, but it’s
how things roll up here. I’m looking forward to
doing some cooking outdoors, but I’ve gotta
buy us another grill first. Our old one rusted
to pieces and so we through it away. Judy and
I might find time to take a dip in her sister’s
swimming pool this summer hehehe. They’ve
got a 4 foot pool. Judy’s mom is still staying
at her sister Trudy’s house. They’ve been
trying to get her in a nursing home. That’s
where she needs to be. Maybe one day soon
God willing. Judy’s brother Ricky is coming
home Wednesday so hopefully they’ll be all
done with the cleanup and painting. I will be
so glad when it’s done, because I miss Judy.
I know she might be tons happier when it’s
done because she’s pooped hehehe. I try my
best to take care of her when she gets home,
but then I did that even before all of this LOL.
It’s the way I am hehehe. I fixed us Taquitos
last night. They weren’t quite as hungry as
I was though hehehe. The only thing I had
eaten all day was Eggos and sausage that we
had for breakfast. If Christian gets hungry
I might just warm up the Taquitos for him.
I don’t eat too often due to my health issues
that make eating not enjoyed. But, I might
make myself a Jif and jelly sandwich so he
won’t have to eat alone hehehe. Yes I said
Jif and jelly. Growing up, my mom only
bought Jif brand peanut butter. Hehehe
the jelly didn’t really matter. So now days
I still only buy Jif. It’s burned into my way
of thinking LOL. It’s your fault mom LOL.
I’m sure you have a few things from your
childhood that followed you into adulthood 🙂
Let’s put it this away. If it does nobody any
harm including yourself, why change hehehe?
Yep, I have a few things that followed me
from childhood such as my washing the dishes
and putting them away without thinking it was
somebody else’s job. It’s just something
I do. I don’t mind cooking, but not just for
myself. If I was just cooking for myself, it
would not happen often. Especially now that
I have no colon LOL. Let’s just say, I don’t
look forward to eating hehehe. But God has
given me many blessings to help me to see
passed the problems of life. Yes I do get
tired of the aches and pains and having to
go to the restroom more times than I can
count LOL, but I do enjoy spending time
with Judy and the boys as well as our many
other family members. We always enjoy
having Christian stay with us. Of course to
him we might be old and boring and for the
life of me I cannot see why he wants to be
here, but I am thrilled to have him here. I
wish my daughter Jamye and her daughter
(our granddaughter) Sami could come up some
time. We also enjoy it when Judy’s daughters
come for a visit. Our grandson Chance and
granddaughter Rylee are also a welcomed
sight around here. Lil Tommy is welcome
as well. It’s been a long time since he has
come for a visit. Thank You God for all of
the blessings that You have given us. Judy
and I are most grateful. I reckon it’s time
for me to cease my rambling and take a lil
trip back through all that I have written here
to that place of my recollection and see if
I can find me a decent title. So, it’s away
I go, back through all that I’ve written here
to that little place that I always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE. I think I found a
good title and now after checking I see that
it has not been used as of yet. So used it
shall be today hehehe. Here goes………….

Most Grateful

Where hopeful is hidden
with times now exposed
I am most grateful
for times blessed rose.
Often my viewpoints
are not great to see,
but I am most grateful,
what God gave to me.
He’s given blessings
and talents to show
sharing with others
wherever I go.
I am most grateful
for all that God’s done
giving so freely
Lord Jesus His Son.
No matter the passed days
of my own desire
I am most grateful
I’m saved from Hells fire.
He showed me mercy
as He does each day
and I am most grateful
He’s showed me the way.

So there ya go. I hope you enjoyed my rambling
and maybe even the poem 🙂 Christian had gone
into the living room to rest, but came in here to
tell me he saw a wasp, but as I came in there with
bug spray, I saw no wasp. It might of flown off.
Anyways, Christian is back in here, because he’s
afraid of the wasp. I might spot it later and then
send it outside to play. They don’t bother me no
more than a prickly pin hehehehe. Bumble bees
and scorpions don’t bother me either. I’m immune.
Of course I haven’t been stung by a scorpion in
in many years or the other either, so who knows.
I don’t get mosquito bites either due to the odd
blood chemistry of mine. Don’t ask! It’s what I
was born with. When I was a kid I used to play
with poison oak vines and poison ivy, but even
in later dates it has never bothered me. I was
all in it a few times last year while taking a walk
through the woods hehehe. Oh well, I be weird.
My dads immunity for it ceased on him shortly
before he passed away. So, I guess before I
get into Rambles ville again, I better 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 of them being sort of
Christmassy. Also I wrote once again 22 haiku
for all of my haiku lovers out there. I hope you
find something you like. So now I believe I need
to begin my search for that not so illusive off
switch, but not before I wish you a most blessed
weekend and a God filled week. Remember,
Jesus loves you and we do too. OK, where
are ya hiding you silly off switch? I hope you
have put a little more effort into your hiding
than you have in the past. Yet, Me thinks
you are just being lazy as I can see you clear
as day hiding or should I say trying to hide
behind my Mountain Dew can hehehehehehe.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill, Judy, Benny and Milo Pearce

P.S. Thanks to Ron and Mandy at Century Computer
my PC with Windows 8 is back up and running, but
I’ve gotta buy another mouse for it before I can use it.
A special thanks to my mom also for paying for the
repairs. I don’t know what we would do without you.
We love you tons.

Now it’s on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehehe 🙂

I Believe In Miracles

The essence of a sunny day
becomes my wildest dream
while I believe in miracles
within each magical scene.
The months of time all pass on by
with echoes of yesterday.
Yes, I believe in miracles
within a wondrous way.
The clouds that fly so high above
become an artist view
and I believe in miracles
as each day starts anew.
The seasons found within our minds
flow as a timeless force,
while I believe in miracles
in such a scenic course.
Painted with the Hands of God
as each day starts its shine
while I believe in miracles
that God gives so Divine.
Scenes so magical wonderful true
become a breath of air
for I believe in miracles
that are found everywhere.
Beyond right now and tomorrow
scenes continue to grow,
while I believe in miracles
with flowers and fallen snow.
Each day I see another sign
of wonderful things to view.
Yes, I believe in miracles
that God gives me and you.
So now as time just moves along
tell me do you agree
and do you believe in miracles,
even ones you may not see?
I believe in miracles
for I have seen displayed
things that happened in my life
that were true Heaven made.
So many times I wandered passed
the doors of better days
but then I saw much later on
the errors of my ways.
God had not forsaken me
for He still guided me true,
so yes I believe in miracles
that help me start anew.
The past is time that is no more,
but it has taught me well.
Yes, I believe in miracles
that saved my soul from Hell.

How Many Times

When we get caught up
in pleasure and pain
how many times
are we found without gain?
Lessons from mishaps
brought by our actions
often become as
our troublesome fractions.
How many times
do you look up and say
Dear Lord please help me
right now and today?
Do you continue
to do as you’ve done
and how many times
have you seen the same sun?
Today is a passageway
unto tomorrow
so how many times
will you seek time to borrow?
Will you continue
with your failed desires
and not admit that
some lead to Hell’s fires?
How many times
will you find day to day
that you’re still wanting
everything you’re own way?
Sometimes our wantings
will drive us insane
not giving anything
good to attain.

My Seasonal Dreams

My dreams of winter
and Christmas with cheer
comes from my seasonal
dreams every year.
Scenes within turnstiles
as white winter snow
and then at springtime
with flowers that grow.
My seasonal dreams
are found in my mind
harnessing flavors
of each great design.
Seasonal doorways
that give things to see
dreams I envision
and wish them to be.
My seasonal dreams
are pathways I find
within the turnstiles
of time after time.
As time moves onwards
with pages applied
my seasonal dreams
are an ongoing ride.

A Painted Smile

A circus clown
with smiles of paint
might be found
with frowns restraint.
This not only
is what’s found
when we daily
look around.
A painted smile
of holding back
in fleshly tone
that’s hiding black.
The painted face
without a stroke
hides sometimes
what’s truthful spoke.
A painted smile
a frown beneath
to hide the truth
with gritted teeth.
So understand
someone’s denial
might just hide
a painted smile.

As Things Might Seem

While time is ticking
many things will occur
as things might seem
to be just a blur.
All things remembered
might now just display
as time might seem
with a hurried array.
Often our journeys
might lose their control
when moving quickly
and time pays its toll.
As things might seem
we might see illusion
found amidst doorways
of truthful confusion..
We are the pages
of times written word
as things might seem
sometimes so absurd.
Let journeys sought
be a prayerful design,
as things might seem
just a little out of time.
Lord God gives direction
though sometimes extreme
with some seeming hurtful
as things might seem.
But God knows our needs
while life moves along
as things might seem
what now seems so wrong.
So right now be thankful
for what you don’t know
for sometimes our knowledge
can fill us with woe.
As things might seem
right now might be bad,
but there are blessings
which you should be glad.
Though we can’t see them
some blessings in life,
surely are with us
a husband or wife.
Our family and friends
that have gone ahead
now within Heaven
not hurting instead.
As things might seem
they are not in our sight,
but they are with us
each day and each night.
So all those blessings
of layers of time
now can find friendship
through Jesus Divine.
For as things might seem
they might not be great,
but there are great blessings
to surely elate.

Soon Will Come Summer

Springtime surrounds us
in our to and fro
flowers and trees
with grasses that grow.
Soon will come summer
as minutes tick on
springtime at dusk
then summer at dawn.
Soon summers fragrance
will fill up the days
as breezes blowing
like oceans of waves.
Essence of springtime
will still be well seen
found in the waters
of leftover spring.
Yet now the flowers
that blossom and grow
live now in springtime
with their to and fro.

Two Hearts Collide

When time comes together
and two hearts collide
true love takes journeys
on a magical ride.
Sometimes there’s problems
as two hearts will grow,
but they grow closer
with more time they know.
Yes of course hard times
will plant bitter seeds,
but if they’re truthful
they’ll find all their needs.
Planted as passion
as two hearts grow old
time gives the chances
for God to unfold.
Allowing Lord Jesus
to come then inside
will find them blessings
as two hearts collide.

Behind Our Eyes

With only a sight
our eyes cannot see,
for so many things
live in you and me.
We have our own ways
of dealing with things
behind our eyes
might be tangled strings.
What ones know not of,
for they’re not that wise.
Things that are hidden
right behind our eyes.
Lifestyles of torment
that we’ve suffered through
behind our eyes
might still feel the blue.
So many show only
what they feel they should,
for behind our eyes
ones misunderstood.
So when you’re judging
how someone reacts
remember you might not
have all of the facts.
Behind their eyes
might conceal their heart
that has by many
been just blown apart.
They might need someone
to help them some way
to find life and living
of a much better day.
So don’t judge too quickly
and think you’re too wise,
for they might be living
with times of dark skies.

A Morning Of May

One morning of May
we saw it was snowing
thinking this season
knows not where it’s going.
Crazy it seems
for snow to fall down
a morning of May
so weird to found
Bizarre it was surely
a morning of May
flavored with snowflakes
non seasonal way.
We both got our cameras
and aimed out the door
taking some pictures
like winters before.
A morning of May
brought white snow to see
a bizarre moment truly
you’ll have to agree.

Santa In The Heart

Christmas comes blissfully
times we remember
seasonal moments
that many remember.
Thinking of Santa Claus,
his giving way
makes many think about
that wondrous day.
Some will bestow it
the Christmastime joy
memories of them then
a young girl or boy.
There’s ones giving freely
what they’re taught is right
with Christmas cheerful
that they so delight.
They hold fast the meaning
of Christmas they know
displaying joyful
to help others grow.
Many hold that feeling
with God to impart
giving to others as
Santa in the heart.

Haiku
for May 23, 2015

Mornings of grateful
will bring forth many blessings
with prayer entered in.

Desire of others
will lead to discontentment
as wantings prevail.

A forest of time
finds many leaves uncounted
as each tree will grow.

Sunshine by evening
bids its farewell to the day
as night comes alive.

Teams of wild horses
can not make you change your mind
if you are stubborn.

While many will wait,
others will hurry ahead
and test the waters.

We each see moments
through our own certain eyesight
distinguishing them.

Ones with their baggage
might coax you into joining
making more baggage.

Letting lose of then
will help the future to grow
and find happiness.

With teardrops falling
many might mistaken the sight
and just walk away.

Many find a car wreck
while rubbernecking to see
what they care not of.

More time is wasted
when we put off importance
and focus on junk.

Sleepy eyes will shut
as the minutes tick onwards
adding to others.

A flower frosted
might find its life once again
as sunshine gives warmth.

Bleakness of others
might be found through their lifestyles
they found by accident.

Too many people
look at only the bad times
while missing the good.

A mindset person
will be hard to influence,
but it can be done.

Stubborn weeds will grow
as they act just like flowers
to cease being mowed.

Tomorrow’s doorway
will open in its own time
as now is displayed.

Choosing your pathway
needs be done with God’s guidance
through a little prayer.

Staring at others
might cause them to stare right back,
so take note of that.

What people might think
will often cause us worry,
but it don’t matter.

A Few Things

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s been a spring looking rainy sort of week these
passed few days, but we had a freeze the other morning
and the plant that Judy bought got frosted. I’m trying
to bring it back to life, but I think she will have to buy
another plant. I bought her a little tricycle plant stand.
It has a holder for two plants. The next time we’ve got
money we might go and buy a couple more plants. We
had only bought the one that got frosted. So, what else
is going on around this place. Well, I hear that my PC
is repaired and on its way back to me. It will be nice to
have access to my pictures that I had failed to copy to
my external hard drive along with a few programs that
I bought that will only work with that stupid Windows 8.
Anyways, then I will be busy hooking it back up and
buying me another mouse being Judy’s started acting
up and so I gave her the one that the Windows 8 PC
used. Judy has been busy this week with her sisters
and other family members cleaning out her brothers
house to make it ready for him when he comes home.
Ricky is doing better. Of course he’s what you might
call a hoarder and they are busy getting rid of stuff
that he’s got an over excess of, such as junk. They
rented a dumpster to put the stuff in. Ricky is going
to be home in a week or so, and Judy and them are
trying to have the house cleaned out and ready for
him when he gets there. After that, it’s up to him.
Judy might go over there from time to time to keep
the house from getting in such bad shape. It’s not
costing her or any of the family any money. Ricky’s
paying for it. Judy’s been looking for a recliner and
sofa along with a few other odds and ends to buy
for his house of course using Ricky’s money. The
stuff he had was all gross from stuff I’d rather not
speak of. Oh well, I’ve seen it before. I have been
having to stay and keep and eye on the boys, plus
I’m in no shape to help. I would just get in the way.
Today is sort of rainy looking. It’s 52 F degrees
and 55 is supposed to be the high. Yep, it’s not a
Texas spring hehehe. It’s still a mite chilly up
this way hehehe. I hear Texas has finally gotten
the rain that it needed. Now if only California and
thereabouts could get some rain they are in dire
need of. OK so next topic. The boys are sound
asleep. Milo is right below me resting his head on
a leg of my chair hehehe. Benny is at his lookout
post upon the recliner. Christian, our youngest
grandson stayed with us last night so he could go
with Judy (granny) to help with Ricky’s house 🙂
He had to sleep in one of the recliners being we
are still working on getting our futon ready to be
slept on, but not quite there yet hehehe. Benny
slept in one recliner while Christian slept in the
other. I fixed us Eggo waffles and sausage this
morning and went in the living room and asked
do ya want some waffles and sausage and he
opened his eyes up and said where we eating 🙂
I said in the computer room. We all had some
nice together time before Judy and him headed
out to Ricky’s place a mile down the road. Judy
came home a little while ago with Christian and
Marissa . It seems that Marissa was having
some trouble with her asthma and so I let her
take a puff off of my inhaler being she left hers
at home. Judy was tired as all get out yesterday
when she finally got home to stay. Thank God
for everyone that has come to help her. I wish
I was in better shape and of course was able to
bring the boys, but the house isn’t that big and
I would just be in the way and most assuredly
so would be the boys hehehe. They like to be
under foot 🙂 I forget how many times Judy
and I have tripped over them hehehe. They
love to be with us and check out what we’re
doing LOL. I might take the boys out for a
little walk/run in the field one or two days this
week. I’m sure they will enjoy it. OK so Milo
might not enjoy it, but Benny always loves to
romp in the field in front of our house. Benny
usually heads out ahead of me and then looks
back to see if I’m coming hehehe. Milo will
sometimes come out a ways, but most times
he just walks out a bit and watches Benny and
me and then after a while heads back to the
house and waits. Milo’s not a youngun like
Benny hehehe. I can’t keep up with Benny.
Benny just runs wild in the field while I take
pictures and often a few videos of him. It’s
an experience hehehe. Judy said she was
going to go to Walmart after she got done at
Ricky’s house. We’re needing a few things
like soda’s, bread and whatnot. There’s not
much else going on around here. It’s been
pretty quiet around here with Judy going to
her brothers house for the passed few days
to clean it up and throw away junk that is of
no use. I know she’ll be glad when it’s done.
The poor gal is literally worn out when she
gets home. Thank God her sisters and other
family members came to help. I feel useless,
but I have limitations on what I’m able to do.
Being Ricky’s bathroom is not working at the
moment, Judy and a few have been coming
here to use the toilet. I would be making
tons of trips without a colon and get nothing
done hehehe. Plus the boys need me and old
Milo has a weak bladder. He goes wee just
about as often as I do the other LOL. Sooo,
what else is there to talk about? I keep an
eye down at the floor beneath me to make
sure I don’t run Milo over with my chair and
hurt him. I also look to see if he’s breathing
being at the moment he’s not snoring hehehe.
Yep, he’s just sleeping comfortably feeling
safe where he is. He don’t know how safe he
isn’t while lying under my chair LOL. But of
course I always look before I roll hehehehe.
It’s still 52 F degrees, so it don’t look like
it’s gonna make it to 55 degrees. Oh well,
it’s warm enough for me. It could be colder!
Thank You God for watching over us as we
face our day to day trials of life. Thank You
for always fulfilling our needs in life. Yes we
do get lost in our wants ever so often, but
You’re always there for us with Your Love.
Forgive me for me for my many sins, for
I know I am not sinless in any way. We all
fall into sin, for we are all human and are
weak. Thank You for sending Your Son to
forgive us through His blood. I am thrilled
to know that I will one day join my friends
and family in Heaven that have gone on
before me. Thank You for Your guidance.
Now I believe it’s time for me to begin my
search for a word or phrase that I can use
for the title of today’s brand new poem, so
it’s away I go through my recollections to
that little place that I always like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE. I think I found me
a decent title and it looks like I have not
used it as of yet. So it’s away we go…..

A Few Things

Life of times
with now and then,
a few things
will then begin.
Mounds of miles
of bumpy roads,
a few things
display the loads.
Painted scenes
of colors bright,
a few things
will come in sight.
Troubled times
that come and go,
a few things
will help you grow.
With each path
we walk on through,
a few things
will start anew.
Truth and Lies
will become clear,
a few things
will then appear.
Thinking deep
we might foresee
a few things
of you and me.
God shows true
what we need learn,
a few things
of time to earn.
For right now
and evermore
a few things
are a swinging door.

There ya go. It might not make any sense, but it’s
all I’ve got for ya hehehe of course aside from all of
the poems and haiku that I wrote yesterday hehehe.
So have I forgotten anything? Milo has moved to a
safer spot finally hehehe. Now he’s parked himself
in front of the door so that I will have to step over
him to get out of here. Oh well, at least he’s moved
from under my chair. That keeps me nervous and
afraid I will run over him with the wheels of my chair.
Benny is in the living room barking. I don’t think
he’s barking at anybody but the neighbors hehehe.
Judy just called and said Christian is coming back
to get his tablet that he left in here. So he should
be here in a short. He just came and left, so it’s
back to writing. Christian said he wants to come
back next weekend. I said sure 🙂 It’s nice having
him here. We all watched TV together last night.
Well, that’s about all I have to ramble about, so
I guess I need 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 one of
them being sort of Christmassy. Also I once again
wrote 22 more haiku for all of my haiku lovers
out there. I hope you can find something that you
like. I guess it’s time for me to begin my search
for that not so freaken elusive off switch, but
not before I wish you a most wonderful weekend
or whatever’s left of it and a truly blessings filled
week. Remember, Jesus loves you and we do
too. OK, so where’s that silly off switch hiding
this week? Ya silly varmint, you could of tried
a little harder. For Heaven sakes, what made
you think I wouldn’t see ya inside my reader
glasses case? The glasses are in it therefore
it made quite a tight squeeze for ya huh hehehe.
I saw the case wobbling for no reason and said
to myself, he couldn’t be in there could he LOL.
Yep, gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill, Judy, Benny and Milo Pearce

Now it’s on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehehe 🙂

Redundancy

Again and again
so many will try
to change their outcome
the same do or die.
This is redundancy
found in the making
doing the same thing
and always mistaking.
Redundancy viewpoints
created in time
might be the fuses
of futures land mine.
So let the errors
that come day to day
to teach you the lessons
of a much better way.
Sometimes we need to
just turn around
and make our footsteps
to be better found.
Don’t let redundancy
become your stride,
for it might take you
on a real bumpy ride.
Let God to help you
to see what is true
and let Him to change what’s
found within you.

The Windows of Spring

April and May comes
bringing in flowers
blooming attuning
what springtime empowers.
The windows now display
all of its glory
springtime’s arrival
in a colorful story.
Written in stages
as spring birds will sing.
This is what’s found
in the windows of spring.
Words in a story
that many will view
often with flowers
and sweet morning dew.
The windows of spring
are displayed in time
found at the end of
white wintertime.

Beyond A Dream

A hopeful desire
a dream come alive
is what’s beyond
a dream to survive.
Dreams display chances
sometimes to feel,
but often dreams are
not very real.
Ones stuck in dreamland
might just fall prey
to what that’s real
and their day to day.
Don’t let your dreaming
to make matters worse.
Beyond a dream can
turn into curse.
Sometimes our dreamlands
are meant to stay there
and what’s reality
needs not compare.
For many dreamlands
are just merely that
and not what should be
where that you’re at.

Searching For ME

Time becomes cluttered
when I’m searching on
trying to find me
as time moves along.
With every pattern
from every which way
searching for me then
becomes what I may.
My personality
found throughout time
now seems a journey
for me then to find.
Mornings awakened
when I was alone
searching for answers
that I could atone.
Since I’ve grown older
I can sort of see
my stages settings
while searching for me.
I’ve found many pages
of my books devise
displayed with pictures
that aren’t so precise.
Cloudily looking
at where all I’ve been
my searching for me
seeks where to begin.
Doorways as potholes
that I stumbled on
brought me transgressions
that taught right from wrong.
Searching for me then
found me inside
signs of reality
eyes opened wide.
I am a person
that God has endowed
with many blessings
some silent, some loud.
We often search
for the person we are
and it might lead to
what we thought bizarre.
Yet we are different
you might clearly see,
for I have found that,
while searching for me.

That Big C

While months come shining
with their point of view
December brings love
for me and for you.
That big C of blessings
with wonders to find
That Big C of Christmas
from our time to time.
Those past days that might still
live in your heart
a wonderful Christmastime
then does impart.
That big C that special time
that truly brought joy
when you were younger
a little girl or boy.
Those times so magical
for you and for me
live now as Christmastime
yes that big C.
Merry Christmas moments
a holiday style
that big C blessing
brings many a smile.
Scenes we remember
from so long ago
can be as kindling
for much more to show.
That big C time frame
of Decembers date
helps ones so different
to somehow relate.
As time comes closer
that big C displays
wonderful moments
from magical ways.

Shadows of Heartbeats

Time displays people
that might come and go
shadows of heartbeats
in our to and fro.
Ones we’ve forgotten
a shadow might find
and become glimmers
of then that sometime.
Shadows of heartbeats
might come unto you
displaying the things
that you used to do.
Scenes thought forgotten
might somehow enhance
shadows of heartbeats
and their song and dance.
Maybe not so wonderful
those times might be,
but they were needed
to help you to see.
Shadows of heartbeats
your times might expose
the lessons you learned
from what all you chose.

The Winds of Spring

Morning brings sunshine
as winds will blow
while spring displays all
the times without snow.
The winds of spring blowing
as sunshine displays
scenes oh so magical
in its arrays.
Seeming as paintings
from here to afar
the winds of spring blowing
while strumming its guitar.
Songs of nature singing
as the season moves on
while the winds of spring
just sing their famous song.
Breezes in the meadows
as winged birds will play
the winds of spring blowing
a wonderful way.
Sharing all the seedlings
of flowers in the wind
spring gives a journey
for new life to send.
For the winds of spring
blow each year the same
and birds and flowers
recognize and acclaim.
Springs song of seasons
brings forth a new day
found amidst April
and on into May.

An Empty Heart

Someone with holes
in their own heart
might find no way
for true love to start.
A simple life
without gain
an empty heart
will so attain.
Maybe money,
maybe power
but one empty
turns up sour.
An empty heart
from life of times
leaves just sadness
on their minds.
Fill your heart up
with true love
that is from
Lord God Above.
Let not empty
find you stood
without love
of times so good.
An empty heart
can only grow
to a dismal
ebb and flow.
Let your seasons
find a start
to fill up
an empty heart.

Reactions

Things might happen
to cause us to scream
sometimes a moment,
sometimes a dream.
Our reactions
might paint a large sign
that is of weakness
within our design.
Often a person
will anger us true
and cause reactions
the wrong way for you.
Life displays truly
our daily weakness
sometimes ones see as
what’s just our meekness
For many people
are bullies so mean
to see reactions
and all in between.
It’s our reactions
that often acquire
lifetimes of torment
from unruly fire.
So now try better
to take some control
of your reactions
as life does unfold.

True Passion

Love is a word
so many will say
not truly meaning
it in a way.
For true passion
brings forth a smile
even when anger
finds them a while.
True is the thought
of passion and God
as He displays
what we should applaud.
We need to learn
true passion inside
and learn to love
no matter the ride.
Let lose of anger,
find now some peace
within true passion
of moments release.
Don’t let your anger
to dig a deep hole.
Find now true passion,
let God save your soul.

Haiku
for May 16, 2015

Today might seem wrong,
but it’s what that needs to be
to find tomorrow.

While many worry
others will just do there job
as best that they can.

Left over feelings
could become extra baggage
that you should let go.

The past meets today
bringing choices to the light
as things we should learn.

Beyond the sunlight
holds the key to dark of night
hidden within time.

Violet sunsets
shimmer through the evening clouds
as paint being mixed.

Without a moment,
now might not even exist
for it was replaced.

Enveloping time
is a chore that’s hard to do,
for time continues.

Lost in a forest
might display some fears of things
that you knew not of.

As daytime finds rest
the night comes alive with stars
and moon shining bright.

Restless emotions
might bring forth many problems
from our impatience.

Life’s expectancy
is so often mistaken
for only God knows.

Truth in its format
stands tall in the very end,
for lies do not last.

Predicting weather
needs ones to understand it
and admit mistakes.

A dream that comes true
needs to be what’s meant to be
or it might go bad.

Harboring secrets
that ones really need to know
could become nightmares.

Gradient hillsides
often allow a landslide
so don’t stay beneath.

Weekends bring changes
that many cannot cope with
due to addictions.

The evening draws nigh
as the sun slowly fades off
leaving dark of night.

While waiting for time
take a look at what’s right now
and make do with it.

Looking for someone
might show them standing right there
while you’re looking on.

The meaning of life
gets lost in our perception,
No one truly knows.

I Took A Picture

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends
&
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Well, it’s been another spring looking week up here
filled with sunshine and rain. It rained a little bit this
morning. It might rain Monday through Wednesday,
but after that it’s supposed to be sunny even through
next weekend. People keep asking me if there’s any
snow on the ground. Nope, at least not around here.
Yet there is though few a little straggling snow patches
on Mars Hill and Drews Hill. There is also some snow
to be seen on a few of the mountains, but none down
here ground level. So what else is happening around
this place. Judy and I went to the Anah Shrine Circus
Friday and we took tons of pictures. Of course most
of them came out blurry due to the lighting in the place.
We had a blast and I bought Judy a purple balloon in
the shape of an man sized alien hehehe. He had to
ride in the back seat on the way home. It took up the
whole back seat LOL. Anyways, when we got home,
we began looking through the pictures we took to see
if we got any good ones. Yep, we got a few. I filled
up my 2 gig camera card. Judy’s camera is a newer
one and it suffices a larger card so she has a 4 gig
card in hers and she still had plenty of room for more
pictures 🙂 No matter, we took hundreds of photos.
I went through them last night to pick out a few to
put in my stationery. That took me quite a while 🙂
Yesterday, Judy went over to her sister’s house
to watch her mom while her sister and hubby went
out for a while. It’s hard for them to be able to get
out of the house together with her mom needing to
be taken care of. So Judy goes over there time to
time to give them a breather. Their brother Ricky
is now in a nursing home in northern Maine about
80 miles north of us. He seems to be doing as well
as to be expected. Another of Judy’s sisters will be
taking him some clothes up there this week. Today
is Mother’s Day and I fixed Judy Biscuits and gravy
for breakfast. I think I made too much, because we
both found ourselves getting full very quickly LOL.
Yep, the Pearce’s Place is teeming with life. Our
little neighborhood deer is still seen visiting us in
front of our house in the field. I think we’ve got
plenty of pictures of him or her hehehe. Benny
and Milo pay it no mind. They will often just sit
and watch it from afar. I guess Benny doesn’t
sense any real danger so he doesn’t bark at it.
The funniest thing happened a little bit ago. Judy
was getting dressed just in case her daughters
came over to visit and Benny and Milo thought
she was leaving just as she used to do. It was
so cute. Milo went outside and jumped up on
the car door and looked back at her as if to say
I wanna go with you this time hehehe. Benny
was just watching and waiting to see what was
going to happen. I came and coaxed Milo back
in hehehe. They love their mom. I guess it
was their way of saying HAPPY MOTHERS
DAY mom. They wanted to spend it with her.
I think they know now that she’s staying home
today. Judy’s at her PC busy writing her new
book. It’s a scifi story. Her and I spent one
evening trying to come up with some names
to use in the book. You know, alien names 🙂
Anyways, she’s behind me just typing away.
I know she’ll be working on it for quite a while.
She stayed up last night writing after I finally
retired to the bedroom to get a little sleep.
Of course I stayed up and watched cartoons
for most of the morning until I nodded off for
a bit. She came to bed around 5 AM. I can’t
wait to read her new book, of course after she
is done writing it. I just know it’s going to be
a winner. I always say that we need to use our
imaginations from time to time, or life can get
rather boring. For that matter, dreamers were
the ones that brought us to the technological
age that we’re at now. So, imagine away, for
you never know if what you’re imagining will
maybe one day come true. Just make sure
you keep a firm grip in reality so to not allow
yourself to appear nuts 🙂 Yeppers, it’s good
to let your imagination have a venture from
time to time, but don’t let it overcome you.
Oh yea, I took a picture of the tall man at the
circus and he bent down and gave me his card
telling me to send him the picture. He wants
to use it on his home page. We got a few of
him throughout the circus that I’m gonna send
him. His name is Chris. My mom asked me if
Judy tried to leave me at the circus and I said
I didn’t have an act LOL. There was one guy
walking behind the horses and elephants with
a bucket to catch the poop hehehe. He missed
every once in a while and got out the shovel 😉
Yes, we had a pretty nice week aside from early
in the week when Judy’s mom had a spell and
became unresponsive due to her diabetes, but
they got her sugar back up. Judy had driven
to the hospital only to find that the emergency
staff that came to the house were able to take
care of her. So Judy ended up over Trudy’s
house and then back home breathing a sigh
of relief. Of course we all know that our time
in these fleshly bodies is limited and we are
soon to pass on to another realm of existence.
What place awaits you? Heaven or Hell? Do
you know Jesus. Have you let God to come in
your life to become your guide. I know, even
if you have God in your life, you will still be
found with problems because that is humanity.
We each will make mistakes, but through God’s
Son we are forgiven. Find the true meaning of
life that is not just here in these bodies, but
our spirits that will join our new healthy bodies
when we pass on. Get to know Jesus today.
Now, with that said, I guess it’s time for me
to be taking my little trip back through all that
I’ve written here to that place of my recollection
to see if I can find me 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 lil place I like
to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I think I may of
found a decent title and now after checking
I see that I have not used it as of yet, but it
shall be used today 🙂 Here goes.

I Took A Picture

A page is turned
from then to now
a story told
to tell me how.
I took a picture
then to see
those many times
my mom and me.
With hearts united
daily found
my mom and me
went round and round.
We had our share
of times discord,
but found true love
through our sweet Lord.
We joined our hands
and held them tight
I took a picture
of that sight.
With mom and me
and my wife too
I took a picture
of that view.
I love you mom
right to the core,
we’ve grown with love
forevermore.
I took a picture
and now I see
the times you were
right there for me

OK so there’s my Mother’s Day poem. Of course
I wrote another one yesterday, but you’ll see it in
my poetry section below 🙂 So, I think I’ve told you
all that has gone on around here this passed week,
I might of missed something, but I cannot think of
anything. Milo is lying in the floor in a doggy bed
right between Judy and I. I think he’s happy that
Judy is staying home today. It was just so bizarre
that he would go and jump up on the car door and
park himself right by the backdoor. That is totally
out of his norm hehehe. Benny is normally the one
that does that 🙂 I guess he really wanted to be
with mom on Mother’s Day hehehe. Well I don’t
think there is much else to tell you other than the
normal and that is what I tell you almost every
week and that is, I wrote some more poems and
haiku. Yeppers, 10 more poems with one of them
a Christmas poem and the other a Mother’s Day
poem. I also once again wrote 22 more haiku for
all of my haiku lovers out there 🙂 I hope you can
find one or two of either or both that you like 🙂
So, now I reckon it’s time for me to begin my
search for that not so elusive off switch, but not
before I wish you a most joyful weekend and a
truly blessings filled week. Remember, Jesus
loves you and we do too. Now, where’s that
freaking off switch attempting to hide this week?
LOL I see ya you silly thing. Hiding behind my
foot grinder wasn’t one of your best places to
hide. It might of been if you had been hiding
behind it and not just the sanding pad hehehe.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill, Judy, Benny and Milo Pearce

Now it’s on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehehe 🙂

Heaven Awaits

You and I together
watch time ticking on
our lives together
as passed days are gone.
We are God’s children
you and I together
linked by His passion
that last on forever.
We’ve seen many days
we wished were not true,
but those days began
to bring me to you.
Sometimes some problems
will start life to live
while Heaven awaits us
a new life to give.
So as we’re united
with each brand-new dawn
our lives together
will just continue on.
Within Heaven’s gateway
holds healthy new life
found for a family
and husband and wife.
Even those before us
will be there smiling true
as Heaven awaits us
to start life anew.

Our Time

The moments we see,
the moments we do
our time explores
sometime so anew.
Often our footsteps
that just gather dust
become as our time then
the moments we must.
Our time continues
even when we die,
for we continue
in Heaven so high.
We each have moments
that become our view
our time together
for me and for you.
Sometimes our vision
is clouded by thoughts
our time becomes then
what all we lost.
Let lose those troubles
of yesterdays time
for time continues
with better to find.

Some Are

Yes many mothers
are much more in lives
some are our mothers
and some are our wives.
Some create lifestyles
the turning of age
and some then help with
turning of a page.
Some are our honeys
our wives Heaven sent
and some are our mothers
to teach what love meant.
Often our mothers
will just be our mom
that we will miss when
their time is gone.
Yet our dear mothers
and wives surely so
become as what some are
to help us to grow.
Yes even loved ones
a wife that you’ve found
might even be that
times solid ground.
So show your mother
and honey some love
Mothers Day now then
and passed then thereof.

Lost In A Heartbeat

Found in a dreamland
time continues on
lost in a heartbeat
dusk unto dawn.
Sleep brings alive
those times I remember
lost in a heartbeat
found in an ember.
Scenes I recognize
of my yesteryears
often will enter in
and create some tears.
Everything’s changing
dreams come alive
lost in a heartbeat
dreams start to drive.
Making my memories
become something more
lost in a heartbeat
through another door.
Then as it’s ending
the dream becomes clear
lost in a heartbeat
of my yesteryear.
Some things I’d forgotten
on times winding street
now are some dreams lost
in a heartbeat.
Those days with my daddy
and my Paw Paw too
got lost in a heartbeat
of then thereunto.
My mother then also
with love then so sweet
and my grandmother
with things good to eat.
Lost in a heartbeat
finds now a way
to become found in
my dreams now today.

Strumming Life’s Guitar

While many go singing,
some just strum along
to every lifestyle
that fits in their song.
Strumming life’s guitar
is a seasonal way
bringing then so many
to their day to day.
Seeing all the colors
of a string fest design
while they go strumming
in their time to time.
Some hit some bad notes
while others fit right in
strumming life’s guitar
from where all they’ve been.
Many have a drumbeat
with a rhythmic style
while some go strumming
and connect in a while.
Finding a connection
from journeys afar
many find the music
while strumming life’s guitar.

Long Ago Christmas

Passed days of Christmas
might seem to fade from view
as we go onwards
just ignoring what to do.
Long ago Christmas
is a time I can recall.
A time that’s so wonderful
and stands up so tall.
The Christmases I remember
are those times with mom and dad
long ago faraway
the greatest times I had.
Those wonderful times remembered
still live alive in me
and I’ve added them to now
in our yearly Christmas tree.
Long ago Christmas was
a time to go exploring
all of the Christmas lights
that I thought was so adoring.
Now today my Christmases
are great in their own way,
for they’re spent with my loving wife
and dogs that wonderous day.

After The Day Is Done

When the sun has ceased its shining
and the night’s begun
life begins a new way
after the day is done.
The stars come out to play
in the skies of dark of night
after the day is done
and the sun has ceased its light.
Even found so big and round
is that wondrous moon
after the day is done
for many then to swoon.
Night becomes a journey
for so many then to soar
after the day is done
for ones to then adore.
Ones begin a midnight quest
a journey through the stars
after the day is done
within their dreams memoirs.
They stop to take a breather
on the moon so late at night
after the day is done
and find themselves in flight.
A lunar vision setting
after the day is done
brings the scenes of twilight
that’s without any sun.

Only You

Lord God fills my lifestyle
with time that’s so complete.
He’s given many chances
to feel my true heartbeat.
God you’ve shown me truly
how I am to see,
but I still so often
am blind as I can be.
Only You Lord Jesus
can help me learn so true
what I am to say now
and what I am to do.
Yet I know I’ll falter,
for I’m a human being
with my carnal instincts
that cloud my daily seeing.
But Lord God I am trying
to do the best I can
to be the best perception
of what’s a Godly man.

I’ve Been Searching

My old self and my journey
found me many times
filled with many speed bumps
and a few land mines.
I’ve been searching always
just looking for a way
to get passed all the problems
that I see day to day.
Often I am crying,
but yet it’s all inside
for I sometimes feel that
teardrops I must hide.
Yet my story goes forth
with searching what to do
when I am not happy
and feeling really blue.
I’ve been searching truly
through my passed to now
and I’ve found an answer
that will show me how.
The tears of which I’m shedding
are those I need to share,
for there are so many
the same found everywhere.
We each will have our struggles
teardrops falling down,
but just know that Jesus
can help remove that frown.
He gives us many people
to share and tell our woe
so if you have been searching,
this you need to know.
Don’t hold those tears within you.
Let ones see you cry,
then you’ll feel much better
in your by and by.
Yet don’t be a whiner
just crying all the time,
because you might discover
there’s not a friend to find.
Yes truly I’ve been searching,
but found so often true
the One we need to search for
is found there within You.

Field Of Dreams

Passionate viewpoints
rivers and streams
also are found in
a field of dreams.
A story that’s written
with flowers and more
found in a field then
green grassy floor.
Each scene’s united
as stories from seed
planted with passion
for many to read.
Each as a rhythm
of scenic design
a field of dreams
that’s found so divine.
An ocean of flavors
with shadows to see
a field of dreams
for you and for me.
This is but a journey
for eyes looking on
in a field of dreams
that’s Heavenly drawn.
Earth scented flowers
with grasses that sway
join in the journey
day after day.
A field of dreams
can bring you a smile
with but a glimpse
of a momentous while.

Haiku
for May 9, 2015

Tomorrow’s sunrise
is determined by today
and not just the sky.

Living in a lie
could find you standing alone
in identity.

Love of perception
might misrepresent the view
and only show lies.

The seasons journey
begins with a change of date
and all that you see.

Looking at the sky
will only show you portions
of what that’s to come.

Life in the fast lane
will one day cause you problems
as time catches up.

Book written journeys
only display many words
and not the journey.

Lines on a old face
will become more apparent
as time pays its toll.

The wisdom of owls
is an overrated thought
for they are not wise.

A timekeepers watch
needs to always be wound up
to show correctly.

Words of a wise man
will come from so many things
of which they did wrong.

The door of today
often opens with a creak
aches and pains exposed.

Conceiving anger
can spawn a true tornado
within your own mind.

Life as a spider
finds many webs related
to catching its food.

A tall tree of time
grows in a deep dark forest
as it is exposed.

Many find a journey
as nothing but a problem
and others see good.

Stillness of the day
becomes a windy journey
as breezes blow in.

Remembering past days
could awaken so much sadness
so don’t relive it.

Monetary things
can become overwhelming
if not seen clearly.

Beyond what you see
is a spirit world of life
that comes after death.

Links to our problems
can become obvious threads
that we might not see.

Morning times dewdrops
bring life to flowers and trees
that soon dissipate.

Stuck To The Barrel

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s been a great week with spring finally showing
its face 🙂 Yeppers, the snow has all melted away
and we are even having visits from a friendly little
deer. It’s been coming back every day. Judy and
I have begun taking pictures of it. It looks directly
at us while we take pictures, but we don’t seem to
bother it. Benny and Milo pay it no mind hehehe.
Anyways, we’ve enjoyed watching it. Not sure if
it’s a doe or buck being it is still quite young and
I ain’t getting close enough to look LOL. It’s mom
might be in the woods watching it. So that’s all for
now on Bamby hehehe. Judy and I went shopping
yesterday and then stopped off at Houlton Farms
Dairy and got her and I some ice cream. It was a
beautiful day for eating ice cream and obviously
everybody else in town thought the same hehehe.
Yep, that place was busy. I got a hot fudge sundae
and Judy got a banana split. It’s 66 F degrees and
the sun’s shining bright today. It was supposed to
get up the around 78 F degrees today, but I don’t
think it’s gonna make it. It might make 71 though.
In any sense, it’s a beautiful spring day, but the
trees are still lacking in the leaf department LOL.
They’ll start growing soon. I can see buds on the
branches so leaves are soon to follow. Judy and
I even saw some seagulls in town LOL. I think
they were lost hehehe. Nah, we see them all of
the time in town, but not during the winter LOL.
It be too darned cold for em then 🙂 I don’t know
where they hang out, but they’re not in town or
at least I haven’t seen them in the cold of winter.
I think Benny misses the snow, but it looks like
he’s enjoying the sunshine and warmth. Judy
went over to her sister Trudy’s house today so
that her and her hubby could get out of the house
together and do something. Benny wanted to go
with Judy so he’s with her now. Milo is sleeping
right behind me in the floor. I went and took a
few pictures of our deer. It’s back out there just
wandering around eating grass. It looks over
at me from time to time, but then continues with
it’s eating. I guess it’s not bothered by us here.
Yep, we have a pretty lively place around here.
LOL, not really! I had to open up the window
in here. It was getting sort of warm and stuffy.
I’m tired as heck right now, because my body
was aching all morning and I couldn’t get any
sleep, but I did finally nod off after I got so tired
that even a Earth Quake wouldn’t of bothered
me hehehe. But yet, it was a short nap, being
Judy had to get up and so shortly after she got
up, I got up and fixed her and I some cereal.
No telling when she’ll be home. It all depends
on when Dennis and Trudy get back home from
their day out together. Our new neighbors have
been settling in. I’m planning on taking my conga
drums outside in the next few days and doing a
little music video. I haven’t done one in a while.
Judy and I are planning on going to the circus
in the next few days, but not sure if we’ll make
it. If we do, I’ll bring my camera and take a
few pictures if they’ll let me 🙂 LOL Judy might
try to leave me there. She’s said from time to
time that I belonged in a circus. Or was that a
zoo? No matter hehehe, it ain’t gonna happen.
Nope, I ain’t hanging with the monkeys hehehe.
I took my daughter Jamye to the zoo back when
she was younger and when we passed by the
ape cage, she said daddy they look like you 🙂
Yes I have long hairy arms, but no I am not an
ape hehehe. OK so next topic. I’m still waiting
on the results on my PC that’s in Texas being
repaired. I’m sure they will do their best as they
have always done. They did inform me that the
Gateway mother board would not suffice another
processor, so I guess I’ll have to stick with the
1.4 GHZ that it has. Then I asked them if they
could put in a faster video card and they said
they would look into it, but said it had extra
slots for more RAM, so they might add more
to it. We’ll see what they are able to do to get
it up and running at least a little faster hehehe.
Mandy told me that she thought Ron was going
to be able to get my info off of my hard drive
and put it on a new one or fix the old one that
I think had some bad boot sectors. Needless
to say, life goes on. So what else is in the news
of the Pearce’s Place? I ordered a couple sonic
squeaker toys for the boys. Mostly for Milo
being he’s hard of hearing and cannot hear the
regular noise making dog toys . The sonic is
supposed to be only heard by them. I bought
them at Coupaw.com. We’ve gotta take care
of them boys and make sure they’re happy 🙂
It’s 70 F degrees now and 3:30 PM. Nope I
don’t think it’s gonna make it to 78 F degrees,
but 70 will do hehehe. 78 F is too warm for me.
One of the reasons I don’t miss Texas is due
to the overkill on the heat scenario every year.
It was literally killing me being I dehydrate
real easy due to the loss of my colon and lack
of small intestines. Plus I am very hot natured.
Although as I have grown older, I have found
I do get cold more than I used to, but I still
can’t handle the heat. Warm weather also
makes my asthma worse. Yes cold weather
also affects my asthma, but most times only
in a blizzard or when I’m struggling through
the snow hehehe. I have one finger on my
left hand that gives me the dickens when it
gets too cold. The others I have no problem.
I got the index finger on my left hand frost
bitten back years ago when I was working
at Rabel Inc. down in Terrell TX. I carried
some barrels outside using the fork lift and
when I reached around to lift them off of
the skid, I stuck to the barrel. The index
finger on my left hand got the worst of it 🙂
I stayed stuck to the barrel for a few hours
until someone noticed that I never came
back in LOL. This of course was during the
winter hehehe. So, what else is there to
ramble about? I’ve got our little portable
air conditioner ready to turn on when the
days get too warm and sticky hehehehehe.
It has a dehumidifier setting on it that we
often use more than the cooling setting
The dehumidifier settings usually cools the
house better than the cooling setting. It
uses the moisture in the air and blows out
cool non humid air. God has kept His Hand
on our household and protected us as He
has always. Yes we have problems from
time to time and our struggles almost wear
us down, but He gives us strength to go
on. My granddaughter Sami is in need of
prayer. She’s not doing too well. Please
keep her and my daughter Jamye in your
prayers. I wish I could be there for them,
but life just doesn’t offer me that ability.
Jamye, I love you and Sami bunches 🙂
I’m sure God is doing what He needs to
do. Often it’s not what we want, but it is
the best He does, so always have faith.
Now I believe it’s time for me to be taking
my little venture back through all that I’ve
written here to see if I can find me a good
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 think I found a fairly decent title and now
after checking I see that I have not used
it yet, so used it shall be today hehehe.
Here goes.

Stuck To The Barrel

Seamless the time frames
of yesterdays chores
some might seem endless
with life’s swinging doors.
Stuck to the barrel
of times torment waste
sometimes we might just
react then in haste.
Hurrying blindly
making things worse
stuck to the barrel
might seem like a curse.
Yet with our choices
of patterns we find
there might be lessons
in a barrels design.
Stuck to the barrel
of timeless perception
you might discover
a seamless connection.
Doing the same things
expecting a change
stuck to the barrel
does not rearrange.
Change up your format
of daily times peril
and you’ll find lesser times
stuck to the barrel.

OK, so there ya go. I hope my rambling didn’t
bore ya to tears and maybe you understood the
poem a little bit. Judy and Benny just walked
in. LOL Benny’s a tired pup. I bet he had fun
playing with his Yorki cousins. He’s lying in the
floor with Milo now and he is already asleep 🙂
Judy is browsing the Internet now. I might need
to hurry and get this done so that we can eat.
I’m getting a little hungry. That bowl of cereal
has pretty much been flushed in the toilet LOL.
In other words it’s already run its course in me.
Without a colon there’s not much that sticks
with me. Of course by looking at me you would
think otherwise hehehe. The medicines they
gave me back in 1994 and 95 are what that
put this weight on me. At that time steroids
were the only thing they knew of to deal with
Ulcerative Colitis and it made me swell up and
gain weight. Now days due to my bad feet
and legs I am unable to do much exercise,
but I do what I can. Most is with me walking
out to check the mail or to just walk around
taking pictures. It’s painful, but I have to
do that or I will get to where I cannot walk
at all, so I shall continue on. LOL Judy
just went to the bathroom and Milo is now
scratching on the bathroom door and barking
trying to get her to come out hehehehehe.
He is so freaken silly 😉 I believe 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. Yeppers, 10 more poems
with 1 of them being sort of Christmassy.
I also wrote 22 more haiku for all of my
haiku lovers out there. I hope you find
at least 1 or 2 of either or both that you
like. Now I believe it’s time for me to
begin my search for that not so elusive
off switch, but not before I wish you a
most wonderful weekend a blessings
filled week. Remember, Jesus loves
you and we do too. OK, so where are ya
you little varmint? LOL I see ya hiding.
Right there behind my tissue box that is
unstable and now wobbling due to you
leaning up against it and peeking over it.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill, Judy, Benny and Milo

Oh yea, I accidentally wrote 1 too many
poems,so there is ONE extra making the
total to be 11 not 10 🙂

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

Arm In Arm

The future beholds us
watching from a cloud
arm in arm standing
true love endowed.
Showers of blessings
within our view
arm in arm displays
me now with you.
Angels united
as flavors of God
watching waiting
from there so abroad.
Cloud looking hillsides
with us in a trance
thinking of past life
and our song and dance.
Two together angels
we search through the skies
arm in arm there then
as we do apprize.
Looking beyond there
what times had foretold
arm in arm you and I
better than gold.

I wrote this poem as a sort future poem for
when Judy and I find our pathways to Heaven.

As Rain Falls Down

Those April showers
display such a sight
on through the day
and into the night.
As rain falls down
it makes things wet
with its own time
we cannot forget.
April with showers
that display the gain
found amidst now
with moments of rain.
Seasonal journeys
which April displays
as rain falls down
the coming of days.
So as the day ends
with all that I see
I thank the rains
for falling so free.
Giving mother nature
waters to grow
flowers to bloom
and rivers to flow.
As rain falls down
my thoughts come alive
how the snow melts
and birds then arrive.
Seasonal counting
brings me the sight
as rain falls down
each day and each night.

Whirling Round

The world’s a turning
whirling true
around and around
changing its view.
Seasonal stories
with up ways and down
are with the Earth
just whirling around.
Sometimes with snowflakes,
sometimes with rain
whirling around
again and again.
Often the seasons
change their detail
whirling around
as new days set sail.
Pathways of thresholds
that open and close
often find doorways
that sort of oppose.
Rains found with snowflakes
and icicles too
often are found as
what many view.
Sometimes the seasons
of yesterdays page
whirling around then
changes the stage.
The axis is shifted
changing our view
whirling around
of then thereunto.

Kept Me Safe

Passed days of childhood
I see now real clear
a whirring fan in the night
that I could hear.
A security blanket in way
that made that great sound
in the night with my night light
where peace was found.
A teddy bear a fluffy bear
also with me
kept me safe with whirring fan
so peacefully.
My mom and dad said that God
was always right there
and He also kept me safe
and heard my prayer.
My childhood memories
still live close to mind
as all the wonderful things
safely combined.
Now as I’m reminiscing
with smile on my face
I see how mom and dad
truly kept me safe.

Tomorrow’s Thoughts

My passed found
tomorrow’s thoughts
left me standing
alone and lost.
Losing today in
what’s not here
tomorrow’s thoughts
turn yesteryear.
Things that passed by
while I stood
with tomorrow’s
neighborhood.
Often losing
my now today’s
leaves me standing
in a haze.
Tomorrow’s thoughts
become the past
as they turn to
shadows cast.
Lengthy thinking
what’s not here
leaves me stood
with yesteryear.
Due to losing
where and when
and not seeing
time agin.

Sunshine Comes Shining

Spring comes with showers
of April desires,
then May comes in with
more it acquires.
Sunshine comes shining
with its radiant view
displaying everything
dawns day anew.
Pictured as rays of light
shining so bright
sunshine comes shining
with its own delight.
Laughing little light beams
bring forth their shine
that is God given
as your days and mine.
Passionate displays
the sun is designing
while it comes daily as
sunshine comes shining.

Mundane Moments

Times we’ve gotten used to
the daily routines
finds us so often
just doing dumb things.
Those mundane moments
that often display
will make so many to
forget to pray.
As time goes ticking
with minutes we see
we might find mundane
our own history.
Allowing yourself to
never find change
brings mundane moments
that others see strange.
For it’s the changes
in life’s daily course
that helps us grow with
a momentous source.
Let yourself grow now
passed now today
with mundane moments
of lesser that way.

My Scenic Christmases

Those times we went driving
and looking around
at the decorations
found all over town.
My scenic Christmases
were road driven seas
lights that were lit up
on houses and trees.
Each house with beauty
sometimes in the yard
that could of been
on a Hallmark card.
Through all my history
I searched to find
Christmastimes beauty
in my scenic mind.
My scenic Christmases
live still today,
but now with white snow
a wonderful way.
For in my passed days
white did not show
because in Texas then
it did not snow.
Memories are growing
with each Christmastime
as I continue to
see them sublime.

Despite The Weather

My own life of times
from days long ago
found me with rhymes
so bitter with woe.
Things I had gone through
despite the weather
brought me to misery
less a forgetter.
Times I’d forgotten
that one day came back
just like a choo-choos
time railroad track.
Often making journeys
down memory lane
despite the weather
that now does attain.
Scenes seem recorded
as my own lifestyle
despite the weather
now finds me a smile.
For I have survived
those momentous times
despite the weather
and many land mines.
Now I am finding
those times long ago
taught me the lessons
I needed to know.

A Systematic Breath

A breath found with conclusions
as so many breathe
is what’s systematically
making many grieve.
Moments found in patterns
written in the mind
a systematic breath will breathe
each moment out of line.
Taking strides precautions
that might just seem too weird
as a systematic breath breathed
that seems too stiffly steered.
Driven by their OCD
and systematic view
many find their life and times
a little bit askew.
For a systematic breath then
is good from time to time
if it is not always
found within your mind.
A little bit loose planning
can bring ones joyous gain
as it shows surprises
that plans cannot attain.

Postponed Occurrence

An ironic moment
of then there about
might of been postponed
without a doubt.
A postponed occurrence
that time brought ahead
might seem ironic
when it’s done and said.
For when postponing
you might find so true
what your postponing
you might need to do.
So then postponing
becomes later date
of what that maybe then
just could not wait.
A postponed occurrence
might then just become
later a lesson
of what needed done.

Haiku
for May 2, 2015

Springtime has arrived
as it points out its beauty
in flowers and trees.

Evenings setting sun
brings forth a starry night sky
sometimes with the moon.

As a painter paints
he discloses inner feelings
found in the brushstrokes.

Without forgiveness
no one would go to Heaven
for we all have sinned.

Linings of a coat
are so often never seen,
but they keep you warm.

A heart that’s broken
finds it hard to love again,
but time can heal it.

God loves everyone
for many wrong doers can change
if they find the truth.

Losing a loved one
is not a true loss at all,
for Heaven awaits.

The day moves forward
leaving shadows of itself
found in the future.

Limiting yourself
might become your own downfall,
for growth is beyond.

Dismal rainy days
can become as pure rainbows
painted in your mind.

Without yesterday
today and tomorrow are
without the lessons.

Trying too quickly
to walk on through a doorway
could find you despair.

Looking in the field
I see a young deer walking
grazing on the grass.

The fan blades turning
make a sort of whirring sound
found as hypnotic.

Scenes within springtime
come alive with sights and sounds
joined by aromas.

While the day moves on
it’s always painting pictures
of here there about.

Losing direction
needs us to stop and take heed,
then seek the right way..

Not allowing God
to be a part of your life
could find you Hell bent.

Too many people
speaking too many choices
can cause confusion.

Today brings choices
with either happy or sad
to live within us.

Pain is a venture
that many deal with each day,
for they have no choice.
