ANIMAL’S GREETINGS
Hello my friends
It’s snowing again hehehe.
Yeppers the
old snow miser isn’t being stingy this year.
Our homemade
lighthouse is slowly but
surely being buried in snow. It’s about
4 foot
tall. The solar light is still shining
bright LOL. Although if it doesn’t
get
enough of a charge from the sunlight, it
might dim quickly being the
sun was well
hidden behind the clouds today. LOL one
of our solar motion
sensor outdoor lights
does the strobe light thing when it sees
movement
because it hasn’t gotta a full
charge from Mr. Sun 🙂 No matter, we
have
2 others outside that work with less
of a charge. It’s 23 F degrees right
now
at 5:30 PM. Judy and I are enjoying
the day together watching it
snow, but
the sun has begun its journey westwards
leaving not much light
outside to see 🙂
Judy was just now searching trying to
find us something
good to watch on TV
tonight, but it seems the Oscars have
taken over many
of our favorite things
to watch. So, we might just watch a
few game
shows on GSN or maybe one
of our movies on DVD. In any case we’ll
find
something. We could even play one
of our games that we began a while
back.
The boys said they needed to go out
so Judy let them out for a bit
so they
can go potty. We should be hearing
Rocky barking at the front
door any
minute now saying he’s done, but of
course I am sure Benny will
still be out
playing in the snow LOL. He’s our lil
snow dog :). I might
go out and play
with them in the snow tomorrow if I
am up to it 🙂
Tonight we’re supposed
to get another 5 to 8 inches of snow
to add to what
we got today. Also it
looks as though it’s supposed to snow
a little more
tomorrow. LOL it’s a
good thing I love snow, because if I
didn’t, I
would be really ticked off
right about now hehehe. It’s such a
beautiful
sight to see as it floats from
the heavens and decorates landscape
and
many other things. I love to take
pictures of all of the scenery. It
helps
me with my poetry writing. It seems
that poetry, photography and
music
have played a large role in my life in
keeping my head above water.
They
help me to find peace when moments
are stressful. I took my conga
drums
outside last Thursday and did a little
conga video and took a few
selfies.
I hadn’t done that in a long while 🙂
Judy and I went to town to
do some
shopping at Walmart Friday and the
boys went with us. When we got
home
I played with them in the snow a bit
and Judy took pictures of us
hehehe.
Oh yea, on the way to town I caught
a picture of a guy shoveling
snow off
of his roof. I always take pictures if
it is light enough when
we go hehehe.
Judy drives and I snap pictures LOL.
If that’s not what ya
call team work, I
don’t know what is LOL. I’m going
to bake us some
cookies tonight 🙂
As soon as I get near the end of this
journal, I’ll go
turn the oven on so
it can preheat. Yes, I cook. We both
do. I learned
how to cook from my
grandmother (my mom’s mom) and
I enjoy cooking. Judy
and I take turns
cooking. I was raised that there isn’t
mens and women’s
work. It’s whom
that is able to do it. We take care of
one another. Yes
we argue time to
time LOL. When 2 people are retired
and stuck around
each other for long
periods of time, arguing about stuff
is gonna happen
hehehe. But, when
we stop and look at he big picture we
usually
apologize and move on, being
some of our arguments are senseless
🙂
Anyways, God has protected us and
watched over us all the while and
I’m
sure He will continue as well as all of
the angels and loved ones that
watch
over us. Thank You God for all that
you have done for us and I that
You
will do that we might not even know
of. Now I believe it’s time for
me to
begin my journey back through all
that I’ve written here to see if I
can
find a good word or phrase that I can
use for the title for today’s
brand
new poem. So, it’s away I go to that
little place of my
recollection that I
always call, RECOLLECT VILLE.
I think I found a
decent title about
halfway back in my rambling and
now after checking, I
see that it has
not been used yet. LOL maybe used
in another context,
but not in this
wording so. here goes…
Find Peace
Time might
infuriate
and become a fire,
but you can find peace
if you so
desire.
Look beyond anger
and look beyond sight
and search deep
within
for a brighter light.
You can find oceans
of peace from
within
if you’ll but only
just let it begin.
Don’t hold onto
anger
or senseless pride,
allow for the blessings
and find peace
inside.
Life is just a moment
that might fade away
leaving you
regretting
what you do and say.
So find peace within you
and let it to
flow
and let God the Father
to help you to grow.

I hope you enjoyed the poem and you
maybe
understood it 🙂 I also hope you
enjoyed my rambling 🙂 I just
checked
and it’s still snowing LOL. Of course it
is, It’s supposed to
snow all night and
a big portion of tomorrow (Monday) 🙂
I can’t think of
anything else to tell you
other than what I tell you every week
and that
is, I wrote some more poems
and haiku. Yeppers, 10 more poems
and 1 of
them is sort of Christmassy 🙂
I also wrote 22 more haiku for all of
the
haiku lovers out there. I hope you
can find 1 or 2 of either or both
that
you like. Now I believe it’s time for me
to begin my search for that
silly hardly
elusive off switch, but not before I wish
you a blessings
filled week. Remember,
Jesus loves you and we do too. Now,
where can
that ornery off switch be this
time. Hmm, searching top and lower
tier
of my desk. Nope, not there, but
I do think I see a little movement
from
behind my Canon camera LOL. Hey,
you hid there once before and it
didn’t
work. Why do it again? Oh, hehehe
you thought I wouldn’t
remember that
huh LOL. Well I did and guess what?
Gotcha, see ya CLICK
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
God bless from Bill, Judy, Benny, Rocky
and the
spirit of Milo Pearce

Lupines
Inside of summer
beginning in
spring
lupines become as
a magical scene.
Colors of purple
scented
so sweet
they give a moment
a true heartbeat.
Their sweet
aroma
enhances the time
as they grow wildly
creating a design.
Life
may seem dull
but the lupines scent
brings alive seasons
of a full
extent.
Blossoming flowers
as a sweet memory
they give the
essence
of life which to see.
So if you’re driving
or walking
around
search for their scent
and they’ll be found.
Purplish
flowers
such wonderful finds
found within summer
the life of
lupines.

Timeless Yesterdays
We might find paths
to guide our way
timeless
views
from young to gray.
A path might seem
as a mere deterrence
to
lead us astray
of a circumstance.
Yet the pathway
might hold in
place
a moment in time
of a certain taste.
Timeless
yesterdays
become as a sight
seconds through now
maybe wrong or
right.
Following paths
to another view,
might then unleash
what’s
there for you.
So don’t let a path
to be all you gaze,
for it might
just be
timeless yesterdays.

Springtime Yellow
The colors of life
that our eyes
perceive
are often as glimmers
of flowers and trees.
Scents of
springtime
becomes our view
clouds in a blue sky
and flowers of
hue.
Some are as violet
and some are as red
while many others
are
found to be wed.
Married to seasons
of a colorful style
springtime
yellow
with life to endow.
Yellows come alive
many flowers
display
scented of moments
that night meets day.
Look for the
beauty
so timeless as a rose
and let it to enlighten
what all that
bestows.
With beautiful scenes
the season in sight
the colors become
as
a springtime delight.
As time brings alive
the flowers of
style
springtime yellow
displays with a smile.

Haze of Orange
Within the sky
some
clouds may be
a haze of orange
a sight to see.
They might
display
the light of day
as haze of orange
with a shade of
gray.
Scenes will change
as life moves on
like you and I
from dusk
to dawn.
A haze of orange
might be complete
as rain might wait
for
time to meet.
The pitter patter
of drops of gold
rain that
envelops
a story foretold.
We might envision
a new day’s dawn
that
might be right
or might be wrong.
Yet as the scenery
of a distant
sky
changes with colors
as birds fly by
we’ll see conclusions
of
timeless cuisines
as a haze of orange
creates many scenes.

Withered Times
Life might become
a view
in dispose
a time that we find
a time that we chose.
The moment
passes
leaving petals to fall
as a withered flower
that lets go of
all.
Scenes will change
as withering sights
times we
encountered
once as bright lights.
Just like a flower
we’ll wither
away
as minutes move on
to another display.
Seconds are
ticking
leaving the past
times that flourished
now shadows
cast.
Look for the good
in the changes in you
as signs of the
times
come into view.
For lessons are gained
within our minds
if we
learn from
the withered times.

Another View
Seeking tomorrow
on yesterdays road
might
hold a little
of life to implode.
Seek a new direction
a new way to
go
using the lessons
of yesterdays flow.
Often another view
will be
more smooth
seeking for tomorrow
a choice to choose.
Lose the
negativity
of seasons despair
within another view
found with fresh
air.
Breathe in a life
filled full of smiles,
but don’t forget
all
of yesterdays miles.
For if you forget all
the potholes of
time
you’ll find a roadway
of similar design.
So learn the
lessons
of all that you do
and seek to be better
with yet another
view.

Just Say Hello
Morning’s a moment
that evening awaits
to just say
hello
to the different dates.
Time begins changing
as each day finds
end
and sunshine surely
is a time to transcend.
So when you wake
up
or even go to bed
just say hello then,
not grimace instead.
The
possibilities shine
as a beam of light
so just say hello then
to
daylight and night.
Find all the blessings
that a moment beholds
and
just say hello then
as each time unfolds.
Minutes turn to hours
as a
lifetime’s cuisine
so just hello then
to every little scene.
Be happy
for a breath
and a moment of life
as you just say hello
and goodbye to
strife.
You may be surprised
at all that you find
as you just say
hello
to a new state of mind.

Suddenly Confused
Various circumstances
bring forth a
view
with a time and a place
that then needs to do.
Confusion might
begin
as a cumbersome style
making so suddenly
a moment compile.
A
time becomes alive
with questions of phase
found within confusion
of
all that displays.
You might see a scene
that to you looks awry,
but
others might see
the Earth and the sky.
You might even see
some
branches of time
as that of a turnstile
a mysterious find.
Look with
your eyes
and see with your heart
all the moments of life
as a great
work of art.
Then as the minutes pass
you might be amused
that you for
a moment
were suddenly confused.

Dream of Flight
Our hearts may be sad
with the loss of
someone,
but life must go on
as a bright shining sun.
Of course
there’ll be nights
that darkness is seen,
but also within the
nights
are chances for a dream.
Times that you remember,
times that you
recall
life and all its glory
when you’d trip and fall.
We all have our
moments
and they to shall pass,
for life is like a turnstile
with our
shadows to cast.
So dream on about a time
or someone you remember
and
keep the good alive
just like a burning ember.
Fly high with true
emotion
as you move on to today
while life is also numbered
for when
you’ll go away.
Heaven awaits our journey,
our time to come to end
as
these worn out bodies
find time then to transcend.
Look beyond the
moment,
see what shines so bright,
yet focus on your life now,
don’t
just dream of flight.

Then and Gone
Life is as pathways
sometimes to discern
then to become
only
a second in turn.
Minutes tick wildly
as hours complete
as then
and gone is
a moment to meet.
So don’t allow time
to just fall
away
leaving but only
a moment of gray.
Search for the seeds
that
blessings sowed
and let them flourish
on down the road.
You may
remember
a Christmas so true
that with a picture
still lives with
you.
You may then recall
a loved one of time
that is now gone
to
Heaven divine.
You still remember
what lives on and on
the living life
of love
now, then and gone.

Haiku
for Feb 23, 2019
Losing direction
does not mean
you are hopeless
if you’ll stop and ask.
Daisies of summer
become
artwork in a field
amidst the grasses.
Dandelions grow
showing as
little sunbeams
from spring to summer.
Time is just a phase
that so
many lose track of
and let it to pass.
Beginnings of life
are as
the flowers blooming
showing their heartbeat.
The essence of
love
is a flower within us
some misunderstand.
Life can be
boredom
if you only seek one thing
and not for many.
Searching for
a dream
might awaken some nightmares
that you knew not of.
Patience
can bring joy,
where impatience has little
so enjoy your
life.
Wintertime’s moments
can be frigid misery
or snowy
blessings.
Choices that we choose
can be flowers in sunshine
or
rain without shine.
Speaking too loudly
can give the wrong
impression
of what that you mean.
Reliving autumn
in a timeless
photograph
can become endless.
Walking too quickly
can be your
Achilles heel
and cause a stumble.
Chasing after life
such as the
morning dewdrops
can leave you all wet.
The scents of summer
might
be of the ocean breeze
with waves rolling in.
An old rocky road
has
a vivid memory
of all that comes by.
Inside of a thought
holds many
things to decide
and time to do so.
A daffodil blooms
showing its
trumpet shaped crown
often of yellow.
Life has conclusions
that are
often disbelief
through close-mindedness.
Today gives chances
to
correct our yesterdays
one day at a time.
The seams of our
lives
are fashioned through our lifestyles
as needles of time.
