ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s Sunday afternoon and I thought I would attempt
to get this mess written LOL. How have you been?
We’ve been hanging low in the saddle for the passed
few days hehehe. It seems we’ve gotten back to our
nightowl ways as we were back before we moved up
here. I worked nightshift for almost 30 years with
an ever so often switch to dayshift. Judy used to stay
up all night when we first met and then she took a job
working nightshift at Whataburger and then another
at Quality Inn. It seems that neither of us can sleep
at night. Of course I can’t sleep at any timeframe,
but I am more apt to nod off for a cat nap during the
day than at night LOL. Yeppers, the Pearce’s home
is one lively place hehehe. The weather up this way
hasn’t been too bad lately. It’s been cold with some
snow ever so often, but nothing like the passed few
winters. It got down to almost minus 20F degrees
last night, but today’s supposed to be a high of 14F
degrees. Right now it’s 10F degrees. LOL tonight’s
low is supposed to be 13F and tomorrows supposed
to get up to 34F. The weather has been really weird
hasn’t it! Yeppers, there’s been a few states to get
snow that don’t normally get it. That’s life, always
changing. It might get back to its regular format
sometime in the future LOL. In the mean time we
will survive. I took a few pictures outside our front
door a few minutes ago and almost got blinded with
the sunlight reflecting off of the snow. I had to just
hang the camera out the door and snap it in hopes
of getting some good pictures. I took a few pictures
the 20th when it was snowing a tad. I might add
them in the stationary along with the few pictures
I took today. Anyways, yes it is mighty white up
here as usual. It’s supposed to rain tomorrow
and it might wash some of the snow away, but
also it might refreeze later as it’s supposed to
snow again Tuesday evening. Go figure LOL!
I plan on heading back to bed as soon as I get
this article written. I’m nodding as it is hehehe.
Thank God we haven’t got anything important
to do today. I’m sneezing my head off right now.
I sure wish this cold/allergy or whatever would
leave me alone. They say that every time you
sneeze another brain cell bites the big one LOL.
I’m getting dumber by the moment with all of my
machine gun sneezes hehehehehehehehehehehe.
I don’t just sneeze once or twice. Well, it’s on
to yet another topic. Judy’s sister Barbara is
doing well, but getting tired of all the radiation
treatments. But they are saving her life, so I’m
sure she thanks God for them. Hehehe maybe
not at the moment, but I’m sure she will thank
Him in the future. Nobody enjoys the turmoil
that comes into their lives. OK there may be
a few that get a high from the turmoil, but in
my book they’re sick LOL. To me, the turmoil
is a forger of life making us to be stronger each
day as metal is heated and reheated making it
harder and stronger. I know sometimes the
problems that come along might catch you off
of your guard and leave you in a weakened
state, but you can find lessons through it all.
Learn to pay more attention to what’s going
on and don’t put off what you can do today.
A lot of times we will say I’ll do it tomorrow
and tomorrow never comes, being something
happens to prevent you from doing yesterdays
portion. Don’t be the creator of your own
turmoil. Yeppers, we all screw up time to
time being we’re human hehehe or at least a
few of us are. There are many that question
whether I’m human or not LOL! None the
less, God knows what is true and He has all
of the answers. The answers may not be what
any of us ever wanted, but none the less they
are the answers. He knows what’s best for
us, good or bad. Yes, God allows some bad
to happen in our lives, for I’m sure He knows
that lessons will be found and growth will
be made. I’ve had so many struggles in my life
that I’ve grown to expect them :) Every day
is yet another hurdle to overcome or to learn
from. Let God give you strength through His
Son. Now I guess I need to cease all of my
rambling and take a little trip back through
all that I’ve written here to see if I can find
a good word or phrase that will work for the
title for today’s brand new poem. So, it’s
away I go to that place of my recollection
that I like to call RECOLLECT VILLE to
search for that title hehehe. I think I may
have found one. Now let’s see what I can do
with it LOL! Here goes nothing. Hope not :)

Another Hurdle

Another day
might pass from view
leaving all what’s
gone askew.
Another hurdle
found in place
might be what that
helps the race.
Sometimes hurdles
daily found
are what helps us
get around.
Yet some hurdles
might be seen
now not knowing
what they mean.
Another hurdle
that you find
might be there
to change your mind.
Many hurdles
help us grow
as God shows us
where to go.

Hehehe there ya go. I hope that poem made sense
to ya. Also I hope my rambling didn’t bore you to
tears :) I haven’t much else to tell you other than
my good friend Donald/Tiny is still in a bad way
needing prayers. I guess you’re wondering why I
call him Tiny huh. We met back in the late 70′s
at a nightclub I was playing at. He came in saying
“I ain’t got no money”. When I looked up to see
this giant standing there I said no trouble, come
on in hehehe. He was 6’11″. Although I’m sure
that he has shriveled quite a bit since those days.
His nickname is Tiny for some obvious delusion :)
He’s 85 years old now. I sure wish I lived closer
so I could see him and talk to him. He’s a great
guy. His girlfriend is a great gal and I thank God
for her. She’s taken good care of Tiny. He gave
me a lot of good wisdom back in the old days :)
He’s a very smart man. Anyways, there ya go.
Hey Tiny, you may not get a chance to read this,
but remember God is in control. I’ll try to call
you tomorrow. If I don’t get through then, I’ll
keep trying. Well, I need to cease my rambling
and tell you what I tell you every week and that
is, I wrote 10 more poems and 22 more haiku
for all of my haiku lovers out there. Nope no
Christmas poems this week LOL. So with that
said, I need to be searching for that old off
switch, but not before I wish you a most joyful
God filled week. Remember, Jesus loves you
and we do too. Now to find that off switch
that loves to try to elude me :) Found it under
my pillow in the bedroom. Move it or lose it :)
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehe :)

Winter’s Frost

Winter brings
a scenic view
found within
a sky of blue.
Cold of winter
brings a sight
with each day
and also night.
Winter’s shadows
come and go
some with rain
and some with snow.
Picture paintings
hang with care
with each winter
that we share.
Winter’s views
are found in frame
such as coldness
to attain.
Biting chills
from winter’s frost
bring the scenes
of breath exhaust.

Sometimes Thinking

A thought in time
can change what’s done
by preventing
what begun.
A simple thought
through waited scenes
could turn nightmares
into dreams.
Sometimes thinking
clearly through
can make better
times accrue.
Yet sometimes when
you are waiting
you might miss God’s
instigating.
So let prayer
to guide you through
before you do
the things you do.
Let not hurry’s
drive you mad,
but don’t wait
until it’s bad.

Making Beaches

When the ocean
swells and breaks
it leaves times
it decorates.
Found within
the ocean blue
the scenic swells
come into view.
Wave after wave
the scenes display
how the ocean
does behave.
It brings waves
upon the shore
from what once
was ocean floor.
Making beaches
to transform
from the waves
each daily born.

Little Footprints

Snow is falling
now and then
here and there
sometime agin.
Snow is building
walls to see
paved real white
like history.
In the snowfall
there is paved
sight so slight
as winters crave.
There are footprints
in the snow
with the footsteps
where ones go.
Also seen
are little prints
found as signs
of kitty hints.
Little footprints
seen so slight
lead unto
the dark of night.
Then by morning
there agin
I see footprints
where it’s been.

Snowplows

I hear snowplows
coming going
all the while that
it is snowing.
They’re so noisy
passing by
I can hear them
do or die.
They start plowing
day and night
when the snow
comes into sight.
I can hear them
clearly now
on their missions
then to plow.
Dark of night
brings echoes hue
of the snowplows
plowing through.
Then as snow stops
they will cease
giving me then
sense of peace.

Nights Degree

Lights will glimmer
in the view
of the nights of
starry hue.
Pages folded
will be seen
as a nighttime
dream cuisine.
Light might flicker
when stars die
as they bid their
own goodbye.
Scenes will change
with night to day
as the stars all
fade away.
Lights will glimmer
soon to see
with the sight of
nights degree.

Snowy Dreams

The stage is set
for wintertime
painted with
a white design.
Scenes around me
are displayed
by the snow
that winter made.
The page has turned
to bitter cold
as the same
as days of old.
Cold winds blow
with brisk detail
as the snowflakes
all set sail.
The stage is found
with whitish scenes
such as winters
snowy dreams.

Fragrances

Telltale signs
of ones desire
might become
a fragranced fire.
Fragrances
of times accord
might just be
a minute stored.
Scenes remembered
as a phase
might just be some
fragranced days.
Found in moments
we remember
as a frangrance
burning ember.
Telltail odors
sweetish smell
fragrances then
might detail.

The Stargazers Journey

A journey through space
in a minds eye of time
the stargazers journey
might surely design.
Painted with colors
of starry night phase
the stargazers journey
might lead into days.
Staring at the stars
with his telescope
he looks for visions
with wishes and hope.
The stargazers journey
is one that is found
high in the sky
and not on the ground.
Scenes that he searches for
are painted hues
that are the stargazers
choices to choose.

Unspoken

Words found unspoken
often will say
wrongly the moments
they truly display.
So often meanings
of unspoken words
leave ones with troubles
as flocks of wild birds.
Unspoken minutes
that others might hear
can lead to troubles
then not so sincere.
Don’t let unspoken
to be all you say
just to avoid all
your troubles today.
Often just speaking
what truth needs be said
can make forgiveness
and not hate instead.
Yet there are moments
of unspoken views
that are much better
to leave out of news.

Haiku
for Jan 20, 2012

Life has surprises
such as unfathomed moments
we never thought of.

Snow on the walkway
makes way for many footprints
telling who has come.

Flavors of morning
often bring memories alive
through shadows of time.

Below the radar
a person might fly freely
until they get caught.

Leaning on shovels
does not get anything prospered
except laziness.

People with watches
often focus on minutes
and not on right now.

Love is a doorway
opened with a mere heartbeat
begun by passion.

A minute of words
can create the truth or lies.
Listen real closely.

Thunder and lightning
speak loudly in the storm clouds
as raindrops might fall.

Temporary life
is our day to day journey
awaiting Heaven.

Finding a flower
brings us the signs of springtime
soon after winter.

The lunar nightlight
hangs in the sky of dreamers
along with the stars.

Sequential moments
come as seconds and hours
amounting to days.

Poor hearted people
need Jesus to fill the void
and enrich their lives.

A letter less book
has no words on its pages
to tell a story.

With blistering winds
can also be a blizzard
and whiteout of time.

Senseless worrying
gives ulcers a fighting chance.
Give worries to God.

Displaying anger
can cause ones to avoid you.
Don’t advertise it.

Yesterdays headlines
need not always be displayed
as today’s lifestyles.

Learning the right way
might come from a few wrong turns
displayed as turmoil.

Mirrors of today
are often our memories
found in the future.

The grandest of times
often live in our heartbeats
as what’s remembered.

Silver Linings

January 15th, 2012 -- Posted in Greetings, Poems | No Comments »

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

It’s real early Sunday morning and Judy and I are
watching TV while goofing around on Facebook and
playing a few of our PC games. I figured I’d take this
time to close out Facebook and write my journal :)
So how have you been? It’s minus 8F degrees right
now. It’s supposed to get all the way up to 4 degrees
today. I’ve gotta get out my summer shorts for this
heat wave LOL. I’m glad I’m not in Alaska. They
have gotten tons of snow in the passed week or so
and it’s really messed up some lives. In some parts
they’ve gotten over 26 feet of snow since November.
More or less in other areas. Please send them your
prayers. A fuel tanker is trying to break through
the ice to deliver them some much needed fuel, but
it’s turned into a real tricky transfer while trying
to get the delivery to Nome Alaska. On the lighter
side of life, Judy and I are still pulling through
the cold of winter as the weather blows more snow
our way. Her sister Barbara is doing well. She’s
begun her radiation treatments. My friend Donald
aka Tiny is still needing your prayers. He’s not
doing well at all. I hope and pray that he gets some
relief soon. God’s in control. Life has its ups and
downs and there is no guarantee for tomorrow.
Find a laugh and a smile within today. Pointless
is it to worry about what we have no control
over. A silly grin can go a long way as it paves
the way for more to reverberate across the way.
Seeing someone smile can sometimes cause you
to smile as it becomes viral and infects others.
I’ve had my share of ups and downs, but it’s
with those many moments that I can remember
that help me discern. The good times seem
to be easier seen when seen along side of the
bad times. Find the silver linings in the storm
clouds of life. Now with that said, I guess it’s
time for me to begin my venture back through
all that I’ve written here to see if I can find a
good word or phrase that I can use for the
title for today’s brand new poem. So it’s away
I go to that place of my recollection that I like
to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I believe I may
have found a good title. Now let’s see if I can
write an adequate poem using it LOL. Here goes!

Silver Linings

Storms of seasons
passing through
might become
a wondrous view.
Seasonal moments
found in frame
might become
the passing rain.
Sometimes storms
of disarray
are what’s needed
day to day.
Silver linings
then will find
peace within
a moments mind.
Search through linings
that are dark
and find silver
to embark.
With the seasons
storms will show
many changes
that we know
and some changes
that we see
might be silver
history.

Ok, so I hope you enjoyed my rambling and maybe even
the poem hehehe. Judy is in the bedroom now watching
The Nanny on TV. After I finish this I might join her :)
I may just wait till later to send this out being I will need
to edit it before I send it and that takes most of the time.
So, to prevent me from beginning my rambling mode
again, I guess I’ll tell ya what I tell you every week and
that is, I wrote 10 more poems with 2 of them being a
bit Christmassy hehehe. I also wrote 22 more haiku
for all of my haiku lovers out there. I hope you enjoy
at least a few of them. Now before I begin searching
for that confounded off switch, I need to wish you
a most joyful God filled week. Remember, Jesus
loves you and we do too. Now to find that freaking
off switch. Found it hiding in the bedroom watching
TV with Judy LOL. Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehe :)

Sudden Signs of Winter

Morning comes
as beating drums
then noon and night arrive.
Shining suns
of winters puns
brings clouds with snow to strive.
Days are seen
as white from green
while wintertime’s exposed,
as a sheen
of winters dream
brings magic head to toes.
Scenes are found
then all around
when winter brings some wind
with town to town
of mound per mound
of snow around the bend.
Sudden signs
of winters times
are reckoned to be known
as the finds
of winters minds
then found with whitish tone.

Some Good Remembered

A fathomed heart
that times have seen
might right now
seem as a dream.
A sweet array
of memories
might just be
your distant seas.
Waves that crashed
upon your shore
a fathomed time
then once before.
Let those oceans
fathomed times
live now as
some great designs.
Don’t let them
to bring despair
for they’re scenes
that you can share.
Leave the sorrows
wanted ways
as some good
remembered days.
Then might be
the best you’ve seen,
but it can live
as a moments dream.

Jan 14, 2012

Troubled Hearts

Troubled hearts
will slip and slide
with what all
they hold inside.
Patterned times
of they’re dispair
might be built
on I don’t care.
Those three words
that found them true
might be what
that tears into.
Simple thoughts
forgiven ways
can make for
some better days,
Troubled hearts
need God inside
to help when
they slip and slide.

Jan 14, 2012

Sometime After Christmas

Sometime after Christmas
ones find broken hearts
patterned from moments
of fictitious arts.
Not allowing Christmas
to live and to breathe
as that great moment
that they should believe.
Sometime after Christmas
so many will be
forgetting what all
that God gave for Free.
Their patterns will mock
all the past days view
as they continue
to do as they do.
Don’t let Christmastime
fade from your sight.
Let it to breathe on
every day and night.

A Tiny Little Town

In a tiny little town
there were children singing
for all the gifts
that Santa was bringing.
They sung their hearts out
with sweet Christmas joy
as they were heard clear
each girl and boy.
This tiny little town
was hidden fast away
as miles brought seclusion
of a white snowy day.
The children all played
while building snowmen
with one and another
then time and agin.
They saw all the blessings there
hidden in the snow
as they awaited
that deep HoHoHo.
Christmas lights twinkled
as each night began
with reds, blues and greens
near every snowman.
The scenes were all decked out
with holly and cheer
to celebrate their
favorite time of year.
The children would all sleep
with dreams to be found
as dear old Santa Claus
would come into town.
Dreaming of Tonka trucks
dolly’s and more
as the night glistens of
what they adore.
In this tiny little town
the smallest of things
live as the blessings
found in their dreams.

Down In A Frame

Down in a frame
does not mean forever
for it is not
the ending found lever.
Sometimes our flaws
that errors conclude
bring us the visions
of new altitude.
Use all your errors
to find what is right
seen from the minutes
of a much clearer sight.
Don’t let your errors
to end in dismay.
Use them to find
a much brighter day.
Sometimes the problems
of which we attain
are but a moment then
down in a frame.

Satan’s Scheme

People dream
and people hope
sometimes what’s
beyond their scope.
Signs are laid
sometimes unclear
as ones find
they are too near.
Minutes burn
as flames of time
seconds ticking
their design.
People want
what isn’t right
sometimes day
and sometimes night.
Echoed dreams
of timeless wonder
might just be
and endless blunder.
Look beyond
the minutes dream
and see if it’s
Satan’s scheme.

Counting Heartbeats

While counting heartbeats
listen to hear
all that is beating
so very clear.
Listen to the blessings
given from God
as many heartbeats
without applaud.
So often heartbeats
are hidden true
as we continue
to do as we do.
So if you’re counting now
all that are done,
don’t forget Jesus Christ
God’s Only Son.
He and His Heartbeat
are always there
beating with rhythms
of true love and care.

The Ocean Blue

Oceans of waves
on an island beach
brings into view
what I beseech.
Sands of time
are found so true
given from
the ocean blue.
The waves roll in
upon the shore
as they give
a little more.
Painted days
are surely found
on the beach there
all around.
Scenes so wondrous
sway and swish
as I see
a jellyfish.
The pages turn
with every view
given from
the ocean blue.

Jan 14, 2012

The Reasons

Once is remembered
as it is done
then what is wondered
is how it’s begun.
Time brings us recalls
seemingly true
then once remembered
after our view.
Search for the reasons
of suddenly found
and find the meanings
that brought you down.
Look not at just the
sadness you gained.
See all the lessons
of which you attained.
Once can be joyful
if you survive
to be what daily
keeps you alive.

Haiku
for Jan 14, 2012

Scenes all around us
change our daily perception
of what that’s inside.

True shadows display
only when there is something
that they can mimic.

Beyond a heartbeat
is an emotion not seen
within its rhythms.

Winters escapade
brings glimmers of white snowflakes
dancing in the sky.

Heavenly portholes
open with blessings of love
when they are prayed for.

Looks are deceiving,
so look beyond your vision
and see in the heart.

Questions have answers,
but sometimes as more questions
to answer with why.

Trivial moments
bring us many arguments
without good purpose.

Paths for tomorrow
are written throughout each day
as some dotted lines.

Jumping too quickly
could find you in much trouble.
Patience might save you.

Sharing a blessing
comes with true understanding
of what’s important.

Believing in Santa
does not mean you are crazy.
It means you still dream.

Life is a journey
leading to and fro each day
with a few lessons.

Long awaited times
make flurries of snow to blow
as minutes to come.

Bringing your baggage
into another lifestyle
might just destroy it.

Spring flowers await
for wintertime’s adventure
to melt from the view.

Scenes are surrounding
with remainders of memoirs
displaying Christmas.

The heat of moments
makes ones do what that is wrong
without first thinking.

Angels from Heaven
come when God sees we need them.
Sometimes they’re our friends.

Links to rusty hearts
will make it real hard to move.
Take care of your life.

Love finds a pathway
written in many turnstiles
found as emotions.

Betraying friendship
will leave you standing alone
when truth is exposed.

Dilemmas

January 8th, 2012 -- Posted in Greetings, Poems | No Comments »

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

I hope you had a safe and enjoyable new years day.
It was quiet around here. Boy this winter has been
a mild one hasn’t it! We haven’t gotten near the snow
nor the temperatures that we had in the past. I ain’t
complaining. We had a white Christmas and that is
all I wanted LOL. Although it is white outside and
21F degrees. It’s supposed to snow again tomorrow
night and off and on throughout the week. You may
have noticed if you read this the moment I publish it,
that I was a tad late writing it LOL. Neither Judy
nor I have been feeling very good lately with both
of us blowing our noses in unison hehehehe. She’s
still in bed, but I’m gonna fix us something to eat
as soon as I finish writing this and wake her to eat.
Now on with the journal. This passed week was
a none eventful one. Not much went on other than
our regular stuff hehehe. Yet yesterday evening
I heard the weirdest thing. A diehard motorcyclist
riding down our icy snowy roads. That deep Harley
sound was hard to miss LOL vroom vroom hehe.
Yep, some people just don’t want to admit defeat.
I bet his hands were frozen to the handle grips
amongst other things being frozen brrrrr hehehe.
Well, I’ve seen weirder things, but not lately :)
There’s not much else to report from up here.
Judy’s sister Barbara is doing well as she’s now
going for the radiation treatments. Keep her
in your prayers. Judy rides with her every time
Barbara has a doctors appointment in Bangor.
My friend Donald/Tiny in Greenville is not in
good health at all. He needs all of your prayers.
He’s in ICU right now. Him and me go way
back. I met him back in the late 70′s when I
was playing music at a nightclub. He’s a great
friend. He’s 85 years old now. Please keep
him in your prayers. Now onto another topic.
Judy and I have been watching that TV show
called the Big Bang Theory hehehehe. Talk
about some funny stuff LOL. Sheldon looks
like Peewee Hermit or whatever his name is.
We played Chinese Checkers the other day
and I lost as usual LOL. We’re still doing all
of our farms on FarmTown as well as playing
our Big Fish hidden object games off and on.
Yet, as I said before, nothing has changed
in the Pearce’s household. Nope, it’s pretty
much the same old same old. God has been
watching over us and protecting us. We have
our share of dilemmas, but God gives us the
tools we need to make it. Often when problems
arrive, we will see no answers in sight, but
rest assured, answers to those problems are
there. Maybe not what we would want, but
what God sees as best to do. Let not your
worry for tomorrow to thrive as a dung beetle.
Tomorrow will be OK if you will take care of
today. I guess it’s time for me to be heading
off to that place of my recollection through
all that I’ve written here to see if I can find
a good word or phrase that I can use for the
title for today’s brand new poem. So it’s away
I go to that place I like to call RECOLLECT
VILLE. I believe I may have found a good
title. Now let’s see what I can do with it :)
Here goes……

Dilemmas

When a storm cloud
rushes in
leaving us a
bit of wind.
Dilemmas rise
to then be found
sometimes as
a time around.
Stages set
when storms arrive
as dilemmas
seem to drive.
Let not worries
frantic scenes
destroy all
your wondrous dreams
God is there
with every day
giving blessings
when we pray.
Even problems
times bestow
can be washed
as white as snow.

There ya go. Another journal filled with rambling.
Hehehehe, what did ya expect? This is my way of
unloading my thoughts where I can make heads or
tales with them LOL. I hope you enjoyed all of my
rambling and maybe even the poem. If not, then
sorrrrrrrry hehehehe. Maybe next week! Well,
I guess it’s time for me to be telling you what I tell
you every week and that is I wrote some more
poems, 10 more poems and 22 more haiku for
all of my haiku lovers out there. I hope some of
them speak to you. Now I believe it’s time for me
to be searching for that old off switch that loves
to elude me, but not before I wish you all a most
joyful God filled week. Remember, Jesus loves
you and we do too. Now to find that off switch.
Hehehe found it stumbling along the windowsill
staring out at the snow going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

P.S. Unless Judy’s feeling better, she might not
be able to go with Barb if she has to go this week.
Hopefully Judy gets to feeling better….

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehe :)

What Can I Do?

What can I do
with a time gone away
as it’s remembered
with now and today?
Should I just simply
forget what was done
or should I wonder
how it was begun?
Often our memory
can serve us good
as it displays things
then misunderstood.
What can I do
with the shadows I cast?
I can learn better
to not choose to fast.
Sometimes a minute
of thought out detail
can be the difference
in Heaven and Hell.

Let God Change You

A letter written
mailed and read
can be worded
as unsaid.
Many people
lose the vision
of their own times
said decision.
If you think that
you can grow
by just lying
where you go
you’ve got problems
coming true
in a letter
that you knew.
A simple moment
is not changed
when you say you’re
rearranged.
Changes start
when you are real
and you do not
just conceal.
Let the lessons
that you found
show you how
to then astound.
Often hours
days and weeks
are what’s needed
for the peaks.
Even months
or years gone by
might be found
with how and why.
Let God change you
in His eyes
and you’ll find good
to apprize.

Look Beyond Wanna

Life is a journey
that many succeed
only with living
with what that they need.
Yet there are many
that don’t give a care
and they will only
just look and compare.
If you are seeking for
only your wants
you might find later
the factor of haunts.
Wants can destroy you
if they’re no good,
for they might just be
a bit misunderstood.
Something you see
with a moments display
might just be trouble
with times Hell to pay.
Look beyond wanna
and see if for true
if what your wanting
is then good for you.

Not So Well

Snow of white
with distant sight
you do delight
my sight I see.
Day to night
with left to right
I may or might
decide to ski.
Yet of course
I’ll find remorse
with bitter force
not knowing how.
I might find coarse
the times endorse
a moments source
to land kerpow.
Snowy scenes
with in betweens
which intervenes
might just display
hidden greens
beneath the scenes
of whitish sheens
of my dismay.
So with that
and all chitchat
I might fall flat
upon my face
with a kersplat
just like combat
with where I’m at
with little grace.
Then I stand
and not so grand
with frozen hand
of which I fell,
but fall again
as a rubberband
on frozen land
of not so well.

Truly Show

A change of dates
from minutes found
might incur
the same around.
It takes effort
done and said
to change what
that’s found head.
A simple change
of things you do
might be what
makes better you.
Often changes
that are done
will begin a
shining sun.
Yet some changes
found complied
might be just a
moment lied.
Let your changes
truly show
that you’ve learned
from to and fro.

Snowy Moon

The sight I see
in winters view
is a moon
with whitish hue.
A snowy moon
amidst the night
there within
my winters sight.
The scene arrives
with patterns found
as some shadows
on the ground.
A snowy moon
with whitish glaze
lights the night
just like the days.
White reflections
far and wide
a snowy moon
lights all outside.

You’ll Find The Answers

A jungle of thoughts
from oceans of seas
could be a forest
that’s hidden by trees.
Serious thinking
can maybe just find
too much confusion
for you to unwind.
Find you some peaceful
inside of true prayer
as you find blessings
with God’s love and care.
A jungle of thoughts
will surely be cleared
as you’re in prayer then
for all that you feared.
Let not a jungle
of thoughts that you find
live as tomorrows
of nows worried mind.
Let Jesus help you
how not to just bungle
all of your thoughts
in a moment of jungle.
You’ll find the answers
with patience applied
if you’ll let Jesus
within you abide.

A Paper Trail

A paper trail
with written words
sometimes seems
as flocks of birds.
Flying sweetly
in the sky
with their minutes
own reply.
Books of pages
turned and read
tell the stories
done and said.
A paper trail
that time concludes
could become
just altitudes.
Heights of journeys
found in frames
a trail of paper
then exclaims.
If it’s clearly
written down
with the words
of all around.
Surely stories
paper trail
can show truly
its detail.
So make time to
read the words
of the moments
flocks of birds.
A paper trail
of patient time
can be what that
clears your mind.

Dimming The Lights

What’s found in the dark
could just be a lie
with dimming of lights
of true alibi.
A subsequent scene
in darkened detail
might just be signs
of hidden pure Hell,
But dimming the lights
does not always show
Hell that is purposed
a moment to grow.
Sometimes the dimming
is just but a sign
that of a heartfelt
loving design.
Also some moments
of which you might see
a dimming of lights
might save a degree.

Sea Dreams

Oceans tides
of swells of dreams
are as islands
running streams.
In sea dreams
of far away
time is found
as day to day.
Nights are seen
with sleepy eyes
found within
the oceans tides.
In sea dreams
are distant places
with remembered
smiling faces.
With the scenes
of tides that come
there’s another
rising sun.
Soon the morning
brings to view
a dream of seas
for me and you.

Haiku
for Jan 7, 2012

Simplistic shadows
might be much more than shadows.
They might be angels.

Seasons of heartache
bring despair in abundance
when they’re not let go.

A page that is missed
could be the important one,
so read it clearly.

Finding a blessing
could come when least expected.
It could be right now.

Lingering journals
of our unwritten portholes
might need written down.

Wintertime’s picture
is painted as white snowflakes
sometimes not so true.

Today’s episode
could be filled with conclusions
that do not matter.

Hearing a bird sing
does not mean that it’s springtime.
One might of just stayed.

In seasons journey
comes the patterns of pixels
with colors displayed.

Gradient moments
sometimes slide with much friction
and cause us despair.

Snow on a porch step
hides the ice that is below
causing disaster.

An anchor in time
could prevent you from moving
giving now no chance.

Lessons from anger
often shows misperception
of what that is learned.

Sliding on the ice
could leave you vulnerable
for what’s up ahead.

While playing mind games
you might show your ignorance
of what you don’t know.

Perceptive people
see now as it really is,
yet sometimes not so.

Snow on the roadway
means it’s not a real good day
for motorcycles.

Two bound together
in true love for forever
will find some troubles.

Noticing moonlight
makes it not shine any brighter.
It just means it’s seen.

Snowy perceptions
are with winters arrival
as billows of white.

Judging a snowman
by it’s roundness of belly
loses all the fun.

Thunder in winter
comes as snowflakes are falling
from clouds overhead.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends
&
HAPPY NEW YEAR

I hope you had a safe and sound new years greeting. Judy
and I just did our usual everyday thing as we always do and
watched TV while goofing around on Facebook hehehe. At
New Years we said HAPPY NEW YEARS and we gave each
other a big new years kiss and hug, then went back to doing
what we were doing LOL. Even if I were still into fireworks,
(which I haven’t been for many decades) neither of us would
have gone out to watch or shot off any, being it was way too
freaking cold with the freezing rain and all. So we just did
as we do every year and watched the year change dates as
we continued on with our lives. Not much to report from up
here. So far it’s been a rather mild winter with the snows at
a lesser state than that of previous years, but we did have a
white Christmas and all and that’s what matters to me. Our
landlord came by early this morning to scrape the ice off of
our front porch steps and move our car so that the sanding
truck could get in and sand our driveway and melt off all
the ice. That was very nice of him. I guess he remembers
all the previous years that I slipped out our front door and
busted myself up being that you can’t see it until it’s too late.
I was going to try and rest a bit more, but my intestines
had some other plans for me, so I figured while I was up,
I would get this journal written. Our Christmas was great
with our drive up to Caribou Maine to see the kids the day
after Christmas. We played a lot of trivia games while we
were there. I had a blast :) Judy and I were teamed and
we lost the first game, but won the second called LOGO.
Our granddaughter Rylee was on our team hehehe and
she actually gave us some of the correct answers. Not
bad for a 4 year old hehehe. I took pictures all the way
up to Caribou and they all came out great. Also Judy
and I took pictures of us all at her daughters house that
are surely keepers. When we got home late that evening,
both Judy and I were pooped and went to bed after we
popped in on Facebook for a brief hehehe. All in all the
day was great. Christmas was joyful as we watched
Christmas movies most of the day hehehe and ate our
Christmas dinner that evening. I just wish I could of
seen my family and friends for Christmas, but at least
I was able to spend it with the love of my life :) I thank
God for giving me such a great gift. You never know
when a gift will leave, so be thankful for the time that
you have with a moment. Some gifts are meant to be
as just but a moment in time and others to last till the
day you leave this physical plain. Find the blessings
in the moments that are before you or that have passed
and are now but only memories. Last year was full
of chances and choices and with this new year comes
more chances with choices to make. Look back and
see what all you learned and try to make this year the
greatest of all. Leave all the would of, could of and
should of as just a reminder of what not to do this
year. Lessons are in the pages as the numbers are
counted. Let God help you this year to do what you
need to do. Don’t let your ego to inflate and cause
you to lose perception of reality. Now with that said
I reckon it’s time once again for me to be heading off
to that place of my recollection through all that I have
written here and see if I can stir up a good word or
phrase that I can use as the title for today’s brand new
poem. So it’s away I go that place that I like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE. I believe I might have stumbled
upon a good title just a little ways back. Now let’s see
what I can do with it. Here goes…..

Your Ego

The minutes time
of endless pride
could destroy
true love inside.
Let your ego
find its place
deep within
God’s Saving Grace.
With your ego
comes a frame
that will choose
to win the game.
Losing reasons
for the view
your own ego
will lose you.
Let your ego
not be seen
as just living
in a dream.
Now this new year
you can find
that your ego
can remind.
All the troubles
egos show
when they’re what
you think you know.
Sometimes views
your ego sees
are just found
as a disease.
Let your ego
now be said
as a lesson
in your head.

Hehehe I almost signed it 2011. I’ll be having trouble with
that probably until the middle of the year :) hehehehehehe.
Oh well, it’s not like I will die by accidentally signing 2011.
So, it’s 2012 now and according to the Mayan calendar,
the end of this year is supposed to be the end of time, but
I think they might of just started thinking to themselves
and saying. “Hey dude, quit with the calendars already,
it’s not like it freaken matters ya know! We’re gonna
be worm dirt before that year ever gets here”! Hehehe,
I could be right ya know. Even so, we each need to be
ready for the coming days that our time finds an end
and Jesus returns. Don’t waste a moment just playing
with the minutes. Find the blessings in the time that
God has given you and do your best. Well, I think
I heard Judy stirring about in the bedroom. She might
be getting up, or then maybe just rolling over hehehe.
We stayed up late watching TV till about 6 o’clock
this morning. I’m tired, but that’s always the case
with me LOL. No sleep for the intestine deprived :)
Dear Arthur or Arthritis as he is called loves to keep
me up as well LOL. Oh well, I might pass out in a
moment and sleep for a few minutes, but not before
I tell you what I tell you every week and that is, I
wrote some more poems. Yeppers, I’m back with
10 more poems with 3 of them being Christmassy
and also 22 more haiku for all of my haiku lovers
out there. Well I guess it’s about time for me to be
searching for that old off switch that I just ignored
last week hehehehe, but before I begin searching
for that thing, I need to wish you all a wonderful
God filled week and brand new year. Remember,
Jesus loves you and we do too. Now to find that
freaking off switch. Found it once again under
our electric blanket trying to stay warm. Hey,
get up, you’re in my spot hehehehehehehehehehe.
Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehe :)

Shifting Sands

Shifting sands
of minutes seen
sometimes might
seem as a dream.
As tomorrows
come in view
shifting sands
might go askew.
Some tomorrows
that we find
might just be
unwanted time.
Yet those shifting
sands we see,
might be needed
then to be.
Sometimes things
one understands
is not best of
shifting sands.
Many problems
seen in time
could be needed
God’s design.
Shifting sands
of future days
might be what
sets hearts ablaze.

Soul Doors

The doors of souls
with shadows found
leave their echoes
all around.
Painted minutes
seen and said
bring to life
all there ahead.
Scenes arriving
on the floors
walking softly
through soul doors.
Pitter patters
feet of time
come to life
within a rhyme.
The doors of souls
of thereunto
live in me
and live in you.
We’re united
through the signs
found within
our time to times.
The little things
we do each day
could become
an echoed way.
Through soul doors
of memories
we might find
the shifting seas.
Silently churning
all we’ve done
we might think
we’ve hurt no one.
Yet those moments
that we’ve chose
could be all
that someone knows.
Let your soul doors
open wide
while allowing
God inside.
Let Him guide you
with His Will
and you’ll see
His Joy fulfill

The New Year

The year is done
with time ahead
while we think of
done and said.
Memories
of days gone by
bring us to
today’s reply.
What will we do
with new to see
that’s with you
and that’s with me?
Will repetitiveness
live in this year
or will you change
your life sincere?
Will the minutes
you remember
become as a
burning ember?
The new year gives
a chance to change
or try best
to rearrange.
Don’t let failure
tear you down.
Use those lessons
that you found.
Let tomorrow
find you peace
as the past
you then release.
Yesterdays sorrows
can be destroyed
if you will make
Lord Jesus deployed.
Start the year
with hopeful true
for the likes of
me and you.

Christmas Stars

The things remembered
moments found
bring us views
around and around.
The Christmas stars
that shined so bright
on that wondrous
scenic night.
All the stories
we remember
bring us back to
that December.
Pages turning
through our lives
are what live
and never dies.
Those Christmas stars
of wondrous hue
live and breathe
so very true.
Marking minutes
long ago
that were surely
without snow.
Yet that white snow
we remember
is forgiveness
in December.
Through the blessings
of that day
we’ve each got
a way to pray.
So each wondrous
Christmastime
look to see
Who’s So Divine.
Also when it’s
passed on by
take Him with you
don’t be shy.
Those Christmas stars
of timeless scenes
can live on
within your dreams.

A Fantasy

In a fantasy
lives but a dream
sometimes distorted
causing a scream.
Sometimes fantasies
are just a place
displayed as portions
smiles on a face.
In a fantasy
you might arrive
with but a dream
that should not survive.
Often our fantasies
live as just hope
that live beyond
our realistic scope.
So if a fantasy
lives within you
keep it’s perception
of what that’s true.
Don’t let deception
to take you away
into a fantasy
not meant today.
Sometimes a fantasy
needs better view
to see what’s harmful
for you to do.

Heaven’s Sight To See

Christmas Dreams
of timeless prayer
live and breathe
with love and care.
Picture paintings
hung to see
show what Christmas
is to be.
Soft sweet snowflakes
in a frame
display why that
Jesus came.
For His Love
as white as snow
washed our sins
of to and fro.
All those dreams
of Christmastime
hang on walls
as thens design.
Signifying
what was done
when God sent
His Only Son.
Look beyond
those scenes displayed
and see what that
Jesus made.
He made hopeful
come to life
when we’re living
filled with strife.
He made peaceful
come to be
giving Heaven’s
sight to see.

Before You Step

A simple answer
many hear
might be heard
a bit unclear.
Often words
so many find
are confusing
in their mind.
Many people
speak too fast
or to low
with questions asked.
A simple answer
needs be said
clearly heard
without bloodshed.
Let your meanings
of each word
not be just a
bit absurd.
Think it out
before you say
what that might
turn disarray.
Find a moments
prayer be found
before you step with
sight and sound.

Life Is Beautiful

Sing for the moments
that now are in place
for God has given
His Son filled with Grace.
Life is beautiful
and needs be seen
as that of pure love
in God’s running stream.
Today and tomorrow
are on mercy street
paved with the actions
of Jesus Christ’s Feet.
Life is beautiful
but needs our sight
looking passed sorrow
and seeing God’s Light.
The stages are set
for pages of prayer
even in timeframes
we think as unfair
Life is beautiful
with each shining sun,
for it’s a blessing
from Jesus God’s Son.

Remember That Feeling

Soon after Christmas
so many will cry
for they will have to
tell ones goodbye.
So many people
with family and friends
think after Christmas
it just always ends.
Christmastime joyful
should live on and breath
always forever
and never then leave.
Also those loved ones
of so far away
can live within you
in your day to day.
A heart can hold love
no matter how far
just as a twinkle
of a bright shining star.
Let not your Christmas
to end with despair.
Remember that feeling
with true love and care.

Here And Now

Here and now
might seem to be
as the same
from history,
but the now
that’s on display
is a different
day today.
Some might seem
to look the same
as from where
you surely came,
but look deeper
in the sight
and then see
what’s truly right.
Here and now
might just belong
to the pages
now long gone,
yet the pages
that you’re reading
might just be
a bit misleading.
Lessons from the
days gone by
here and now
might just reply.

Haiku
for Dec 31, 2011

The days all change dates,
but actions determine life
through the days ahead.

An enraged temper
will cause a forest to burn
inside of the mind.

Flowers of winter
grow even with the snowflakes
with colors divine.

Hearing the thunder
brings attention to lightning
that you may have missed.

A simple dewdrop
brings life to a daffodil
as summer resides.

Icicles hang down
as Christmastimes ornaments
dangling from trees.

Windows of today
open wide with our perception
and choices to choose.

A decade that’s passed
leaves reflections of itself
found inside our minds.

Time paints a picture
that many will never see
due to not looking.

A dream is ventured
when the mind allows hopeful
to grow beyond sight.

Planning a journey
takes the mystery away
from where you’re headed.

A flake of snow falls
landing softly on the ground
where others have fell.

Strings of Christmas lights
decorate a distant house
with reds, blues and greens.

Time has a purpose
that makes many to worry
about tomorrow.

Moments need to change
so to give us enjoyment
and not become bored.

Lessons look ugly
when they’re seen through our mistakes,
but they are needed.

Wasting tomorrow
begins when today is slack
without direction.

Counting the snowflakes
helps the time to pass quickly
while waiting on winter.

Someone’s evidence
might be in form of a lie
made up from blunder.

Cherishing heartbeats
keeps the rhythms deep inside
with true love to grow.

While walking briskly
in the dead of winters snow
you leave your footprints.

Foraging for love
needs be done with help from God
so to know what’s true.

Christmas Remembered

December 25th, 2011 -- Posted in Greetings, Poems | No Comments »

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends
&
MERRY CHRISTMAS

I hope you are having a great day in celebration.
I wasn’t going to write anything today, being it is
Christmas :) and even I need a day off HoHoHo,
but I figured I’d write just a little short note and
maybe even share a poem or two. Judy and I are
being lazy today just relaxing and enjoying the
blessings of Christmas. We watched Christmas
movies all night long hehe. We’re fixing to play
some Christmas hidden object games as soon as
we get dinner made and laundry done so we have
clothes to wear hehehe. Yes I know, laundry
can wait, but it’s not like it’s a job LOL. The
washing machine and dryer do most of the work.
Thank God for technology. Well, I guess I need
to find a place here to say goodbye until next
year when I return with a new year of Greetings.
Yet, I’m not going to end this without a poem :)
So here is you a little Christmas poem that I
stirred up from the coals of my mind.

Christmas Remembered

Tomorrows blessings
we found in a picture
could be the memories
within a fixture.
The little things that
times have discovered
often are what that
Christmas uncovered.
Christmas remembered
as loved ones of old
and also many that
were not so bold.
It’s our own memories
that often will hide
what that is going on
deep down inside.
So now this Christmas
don’t make life dismembered.
Keep it as blessings of
Christmas remembered.
Have a Merry Christmas
with seasons delight
and keep the joy of
Jesus in sight.

Ok, so there ya go and here are two more Christmas
poems for you. The first is one that I promised to write
for Judy and the other is just a little story based poem
that I wrote. I hope you enjoy both. Take care and
keep the joy and love of Christmas in your heart as the
year moves ahead. I will see you next year/next week.
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce
Now on with the poems HoHoHoHoHo
only 2 this time hehehe

That Dream Came Alive

In a dream long ago
was someone wished to find
found as but only
a dream in my mind.
That dream came alive
with oceans of swells
bringing me dreamland
with lifelike details.
Soon as the days passed
and dreams continued on
I found a new life
that came with new dawn.
This life was enhanced
by a wonderful view
found as a blessing
in a dream that came true.
This dream that I dreamt
so very long ago
was that of my true love
and winters white snow.
Dreaming of Christmas
that’s shared with true love
I found me an answer
from Lord God Above.
Within this great dream
was a key to my heart
found in a place then
when so far apart.
Miles soon were tarried
as Love guided me
to whom that I dreamed of
and wished for to see.
Then our first Christmas
was blossomed and grown
to what together
we each now have known.
Days throughout winter
with Christmastimes flair
we found through Jesus
that true love and care.
Now as the days pass
with winters white hue
we are together
in this life so anew.
Christmas comes quickly
as time moves along
while we embrace it
to never be gone.

To Judy Pearce
From Bill Pearce

Father Christmas

Father Christmas filled with love
won’t you please display
answers to my hopes and dreams
delivered by your sleigh.
Yes dear Santa Claus of time
will you please give me
all the blessings Christmas bound
of which that I can see.
Such as snowflakes from the sky
landing on my face
and the sight of love and peace
that’s given by God’s Grace.
Father Christmas filled with love
won’t you please come by
with your magic Christmas Eve
across the nighttime sky.
I now lay here dreaming surely
of the things I’ll see
when I wake up Christmas morning
and look beneath our tree.
Father Christmas Santa Claus
I now dream of you
and all the magical things
of which you’ll surely do.
Sugarplum fairies in my dreams
are dancing to the tune
Santa Claus is coming to town
soon and very soon.
Yes dear Santa father Christmas
I now lay in bed
while all of the Christmas magic
dances in my head.
Thinking of Dear Jesus Christ
and all that He’s done
oh so freely with forgiveness
for He is God’s Son.
Santa Claus called father Christmas
you bring this to view
how that Jesus Christ had come
with gifts for me and you.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends
&
MERRY CHRISTMAS

Well once agin I’m late writing hehehe. That’s my life.
A day late and a dollar short hehehe. Actually quite a
few dollars short LOL. My sound driver on my PC
is a bit messed up at the moment, so I can’t hear what
I’m sending via Outlook Express, so I hope it comes
through OK of course only for those of you receiving
this via stationery format. How have you been? It’s
been cold the last few days and supposed to get much
colder. I guess that’s to be expected huh! Well, not
much has changed on the pages of Pearce’s household.
The ice cracking ever so often tends to startle me from
time to time LOL. It sounds like somebody beating
on the house hehehe. The weather up here has been
on the rainy side the last few days which isn’t good
being it’s been freezing rain most of the time hehehe.
In other words it’s been a slip sliding adventure to
and from the mailbox lately LOL. I know I should
put the cleats on my shoes, but I just haven’t gotten
around to it yet hehehe. It’s supposed to snow some
more this week. At the moment most of the snow
has been washed away by the rains, but there are
still a few patches of snow here and there that have
managed to hang tight. I’m sure they won’t get
lonesome hehehe. They’ll soon be joined by much
more snow. It’s that time of year that the snows
start to be a little more often. Well, back to my
sound driver hehehe. I fixed it a minute ago and it
works now. That was bugging me and I couldn’t
quit thinking about it LOL. Anyways, it’s working
now and I can hear the music in my stationery :)
Now I can move along with my rambling without
wondering how to fix it hehehe. Judy is behind
me at her PC playing a match three game called
Fishdom – Frosty Splash. I bought it the other
day for $2.95 and installed it on both of our PC’s.
I’ve been playing it off and on as well, but she is
way ahead of me now even though I started a few
days before her LOL. That’s being that the blue
that is in the game tends to mess with my eyes
after a little bit. I’m sort of color blind and the
color blue goes spastic after a while leaving me
with a head ache. Oh well, I like the game,
but prefer the hidden object games that her and
I can play together on my PC. We’re playing one
that is called Christmas Wonderland 2. We just
finished Christmas Wonderland 1 the other day.
Life here in the cold of Maine has not been all
that bad. God has made sure we have all that
we need in life and even provided some of our
wants to fill us with joy. Judy’s unemployment
is just about to run out and if they don’t give
her extension, we might be pinching penny’s
literally. Oh well, life goes on. I’ve had to live
on much less in the past, but I was all alone
at the time. Judy and I are not buying much
for Christmas. Hehehe I bought her and I
a Chinese Checker set the other day for our
Christmas present. It only costed $11.95 LOL.
Remember, Christmas isn’t about gifts that
we buy and share with one another all though
it is a great thing to do. Christmas is all about
our Savior Jesus Christ who was born to show
us His understanding. Being that He was
born as a man He also through time endured
all that we could possibly incur. Maybe not
the same situations, but none the less the
same pain. So, this Christmas take a step
out of yourself and see what He has done
for you. You will then see the gifts of which
Christmas provides. Now I think it’s about
time for me to be venturing back through all
that I’ve written here to see if I can find me a
good word or phrase that might work for the
title for today’s brand new poem. And so, it’s
away I go to that place of my recollection that
I like to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I think
I may have stumbled upon a good title. Now,
let’s see what I can do with it hehehehehe.
Here goes…… :)

God Has Made

A life of stages
said and done
were implanted
by God’s Son.
God has made
so many things
even how a
small bird sings.
It’s the blessings
of the days
that we often
miss the phase.
God has made
a sight to see
such as snowflakes
falling free.
So many things
God has laid true
such as love
for me and you.
God has made
this very place
and He filled it
with His Grace.

I hope that made at least a little sense to you hehe.
My tummy is growling. Me thinks I might need to
eat or something LOL. I haven’t had anything to
eat today. I’ve been too caught up trying to fix my
sound card. It just needed tweaking hehehehehe.
Before I tell you anything else, I need to ask for
some prayer for my good friend Donald aka Tiny.
He’s in ICU right now in Greenville TX and not
doing too well. Him and me go way back. He’s
a big man or should I say was, being now he’s in
his 80′s. I think he was 6’11″ back in the old days.
I’m afraid he’s not going to make it this time. He
requested me to call him yesterday and I got him
before they carried him to ICU. I reminded him
that God is in control and all will be well. I also
promised him that I would see him again one day.
Our friendship is a good one. Also I want you
to keep praying for my sister in law Barbara.
She’s doing well, but the chemo and radiation
treatments are wearing on her. I love ya Barb.
Hang in there. Now it’s time for me to tell you
what I tell you ever week and that is, I wrote
some more poems and haiku. Yeppers 10 more
poems with 4 of them being Christmassy. Also
I wrote once again 22 haiku for all of my haiku
lovers out there. Now before I begin my little
search for that confounded off switch, I need
to wish you a most wonderful God filled week
and a Merry Christmas. Remember, Jesus
loves you and we do too. Now it’s time for me
to begin my search for that off switch. Found
it hiding in my package of Reese’s Peanut
Butter cups hehehe. Get out of there, they’re
mine :) Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehe :)

Scenes So Joyful

Hours counted
bring a sight
that of Christmas
I delight.
Soon dear Christmas
will be seen
here and now
and in between.
Moments joyful
painted true
with that wondrous
Christmas hue.
Hours ticking
bring the sound
that of music
all around.
Heard as echoes
here and there
hours counted
with a prayer.
That from Jesus
born that day
in a manger
filled with hay.
Scenes so joyful
come in phase
with the sight of
Christmas days.

He Gave His Son

On that day
so long ago
there was One
we’ve come to know.
Now He’s part
of history
and the lives
of you and me.
This dear Baby
I speak of
gave to us
His Fathers Love.
He is now
forever true
living breathing
days anew.
So this Christmas
why not try
to seek peace
with Adonai.
Through His Love
He gave His Son
to make Heavens
battle won.
Through forgiveness
we can find
true and joyful
peace of mind.

Morning’s Displayed

Morning comes
with blessings found
as a fragrance
all around.
Scenes are displayed
here and there
as the sunlight’s
moments prayer.
Painted murals
up above
are the mornings
way of love.
Giving freely
by God’s Hand
morning shows
the sights so grand.
Scenes as presents
wrapped so sweet
as some candy
we can eat.
Tasted with our
taste and smell
and our sight
from God’s inkwell.
Morning’s displayed
fancy free
as a gift
to you and me.

Let Loose Of Anger

With just a minute
an hour can thrive
leaving and echo
with each day alive.
So many minutes
in days that we see
are left as pages
of bad history.
When looking backwards
make sure that the view
isn’t just anger
that needs not be true.
Sometimes tomorrow
needs us to say
I’m letting go
as I enter today.
Let loose of anger
of then, when and there
and find some peace
in the days breath of air.

Those Shadows

A little shadow
found displayed
might be one that
echoes made.
Sometimes shadows
that we see
are just signs of
history.
Let those shadows
that you viewed
find the truth
that’s misconstrued.
Often shadows
time to time
are just moments
bad design.
Let your shadows
find some joy
through the actions
you deploy.
Don’t let action
you display
come and haunt
another day.
Use good judgment
what you do
and those shadows
won’t haunt you.

Pick And Choose

Now as I sit here
awaiting tomorrow
I find I’m filled with
a moment of sorrow.
Times that eluded me
leaving me waiting
for what my heart finds
I’m always debating.
Wishing for hours
and minutes of time
to come and give me
a better design.
Often the pages
of days that I see
leave me just wanting
a healthier me.
Times that I wasted
just out of control
I find I’m wishing
a much different goal.
Now I’m much older
and wiser the same
knowing that living
is not just a game.
Life has its stages
with pages we set
and some are journeys
we’ll never forget.
Lessons are gathered
yet needed to use
through now today
as we pick and choose.

Sound of His Name

So many seasons
come into play
as they are leading
to Christmas day.
Easter brings joy
of the third day to see
Jesus came back
for both you and me.
Thanksgiving also
shows us so true
how being thankful
is how we’re to do.
So many moments
elude us each day
as all the seasons
that just fade away.
Fall displays colors
of blessings of time
that can enlighten
our daily design.
Christmas is fathomed
in many details.
Some seen as candles
and some seen as bells.
Yet Christmas surely
is much more to see,
for it’s about
what God gave for free.
He gave His Son
to help us to know
that He is there
where ever we go.
Jesus is living
as an on burning flame
saving us daily
with sound of His Name.

Antsy Minutes

Bringing sections
fast alive
might be burdens
to survive.
Hurried wanna
with a gain
might just be
a time insane.
Don’t bring sections
oh so fast
into hurried
shadows cast.
Let some peaceful
sections true
live and breath
in things you do.
Antsy minutes
said and done
might be what
that’s not so fun.

December Mornings

December mornings
come at a glance
sometimes as glimmers
of time in a trance.
December pathways
donning the sight
come from the minutes
of hours of night.
December mornings
found in the frame
are with the shimmers
in my windowpane.
Decembers moments
that seem to shine
are of so many
of great Christmastime.
Christmas with loved ones
from so long ago
are now remembered
as stages of snow.
Yet often Christmas
was snow never seen
only with childhood
found in a dream.
December mornings
bring me much love
that comes from Christmas
and all I think of.

What’s Not Today

A simple grasp
or touch in time
can be what
that many find.
Many seeking
for their place
in a simple
time and space.
Trivial minutes
seem to pass
leaving many
troubled mass.
Many others
look and see
what that may not
truly be.
A simple hold
on want and way
might just be
what’s not today.

Haiku
for Dec 18, 2011

Looking for beauty
might cause you to miss the sight.
Beauty is skin deep.

The truth in people
could be in many shadows
and how they’re displayed.

Many of our flaws
are really perfections
and how we’re unique.

Tomorrows porthole
needs help from today’s actions,
so don’t just waste it.

Scenes all around us
are capable of beauty.
They just need some help.

When reading people
don’t forget to read the heart,
for the outside lies.

No journey in time
is left without perception.
Look for the right sight.

A simpletons mind
does things without first thinking
and leaves destruction.

Paving tomorrow
begins with one by one steps
throughout now and then.

Successful thinking
comes when all is thought out clear,
before stepping out.

Judging someone else
might find you in the lamplight
as others judge you.

A path in the snow
is covered soon as snowflakes
fall down from the sky.

Many directions
end up in much the same place,
but some much better.

Mornings arrival
brings many questions to ask
and many answers.

When you’re with closed eyes
you miss what is before you,
so don’t walk blindly.

The oceans sweet sound
is as serenading surf
pounding on the shore.

Nighttime brings starlight
that glimmers as some angels
twinkling in the night.

The depth of the sea
makes ones wonder about life
and all that exist.

Fluorescent fixtures
illuminate what we perceive
which darkness will hide.

Anger needs to cease
when the point and time is gone.
Today’s a new day.

Leftover heartaches
will bring some access baggage
into tomorrow.

Start the day with smiles
and they might blossom truly
into the real thing.

Stuff Ignored

December 11th, 2011 -- Posted in Greetings, Poems | No Comments »

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

I hope you’re doing well this holiday season and the
bah humbugs have not taken over :) Judy and I are
planning on driving on up to Caribou sometime during
the Christmas holidays and see the kids and grandkids.
It all depends on what the weather is like though. If
it’s a blizzard, then chances are we will stay put here
at home. I’m hoping we don’t have any bad weather
at that time. Right now I’m finding it hard to see being
my body is running on lesser sleep than normal due to
me hurting all night long with all of my many runs
to the bathroom. This is really beginning to wear on
me, but there isn’t anything that can be done about
it, so I shall continue on hehe. So, are you ready for
Christmas? Right now I’m wondering if I’ll even be
alive by then. It seems my strength is getting weaker
and weaker as the days go by. I can hardly keep my
eyes open right now. I’m hoping that what ever it is
will pass on by soon, because I hate feeling this way.
Oh well, life goes on with or without me LOL. Now,
it’s time for a topic change. Is it cold where you are?
It’s pretty cold up this way and outside is painted all
white with snow. Right now it’s 23F degrees. I know
I got another late start on the journal, but it can’t be
helped. Just be happy I did it at all LOL. Judy and
I were going to go to WalMart today and buy a few
groceries, but being I’m feeling so peaked, we’re
going to wait for another day. She might end up
having to go by herself. I hope not, but time will
tell. Yet, for now, we’ve got enough groceries to
last a few more days, but she’s just about out of
diet Pepsi’s. We’ve had a delivery of heating oil,
so we’re set for the winter, but I’m keeping the
thermostat set at 50 for the rest of our house so
that the oil will last longer. We use our radiator
heaters in our bedroom and PC room so it’s not
as cold in there. The PC room stays rather warm
all the time, being it’s small and our computers
add to the heat hehehe. We stay in here most of
the time. Not much has changed in the Pearce’s
home. Judy and I are still, when we’re up to it,
playing our hidden object games and farming
games. We’ve been watching a few Christmas
movies on TV lately along with all of our other
favorite TV programs. Yeppers, we’re not that
exciting hehehe. Have you been getting ready
for Christmas? Judy and I have been listening
to Christmas music while we sleep or should I
say while she sleeps hehehe. I thank God for
what sleep I do get even if it’s just a minute or
two. Every little bit helps. We should all try to
be thankful for the little things. It’s the little
things that we often overlook. Let your eyes
not always be focused on the big things at hand.
Let God show you the blessings in the small
stuff. Sometimes that small stuff ignored can
become some very sad times when they’re gone.
We each will at some point of our life not see
the blessings such as a smile from someone we
have met or a hug that we needed at a moments
crisis. Look now and see all those blessings no
matter how small they might of seemed at that
moment they occurred. Now see the blessings
that God has given us through a little baby
that was born amongst us. God sent His Son
to show us that He does care and understand.
Through Jesus He knows our pain and sends
his forgiveness, love and understanding. Let
this coming Christmas be an awakening as
you find all of the blessings God has given you.
Now I think it’s about time for me to begin my
little venture back through all that I’ve written
here to see if I can find a good word or phrase
that will work for the title of today’s brand new
poem. So it’s way I go to that place that I like
to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I think I may of
found a good title. Now we shall see if I can write
a halfway decent poem using it hehe. Here goes.

Stuff Ignored

Through our moments
we might lose
many blessings
that we choose.
Stuff ignored
through here and there
might be answers
to our prayer.
Don’t let hurry
make your view
with your ventures
thereunto,
for you might find
stuff ignored
might be one day
what’s adored.
Let your vision
see God’s grace
as He gives smiles
for your face.
All those seconds
passing by
might be needed
to apply.
So if you’re
ignoring this
you might also
miss God’s Kiss.

I hope that made some sense to ya. I can barely see
what I’m typing right now, so I hope Judy can help
me edit this mess LOL. She’s behind me at her PC
sorting out stuff for her FarmTown farms hehehehe.
I haven’t eaten anything yet. My old intestines have
been giving me more trouble than usual lately making
it real hard to eat. Being I only have 2 thirds of my
small intestines and no colon and no colostomy, I
tend to have many days like this and according to my
doctor/surgeon that performed my surgery, it will
get much worse as I get older. I’m sure he would be
surprised that I am still alive, being my daddy died
of this very problem and surgery. My health issue
is hereditary and each generation of males gets it
earlier in life. I got it about 20 years before him.
At this time of the year I find I’m thinking about my
dad even more than normal. I miss him very much.
We used to put up the Christmas lights together
and we’d sit in the floor putting up the train set
that drove my mom crazy hehehe. Yet I’m sure
that she misses all of that and more now as well.
I miss you too mom. Wish I could see you this
Christmas. Maybe you and Peggy can come up
next year. Well it’s time for me to cease all my
rambling and tell ya what I tell ya every week
and that is, I wrote some more poems and haiku.
Yeppers, 10 more poems with 6 of them this
time being Christmas poems. Also I wrote once
again 22 more haiku for all of my haiku lovers
out there. Before I go, I want to thank everyone
for all of the prayers for my sister in law Barb.
She is doing well. Now I think it’s time for me to
be searching for that old off switch that loves
to try to elude me, but before I do that I need to
wish you a most wonderful God filled week and
holiday season. Remember, Jesus loves you
and we do too. Now to find that off switch hehe.
Found it looking over Judy’s shoulder being
nosy LOL, Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehehe :)

Christmas Settings

Christmas dreams
are found in place
upon every
young child’s face.
Christmas stories
read and told
create dreams
from times of old.
Christmas blessings
come to dance
in a wondrous
scenic glance.
Christmas trees
and houses too
all lit up
with such a view.
Christmas lights
all colors seen
help to start
a Christmas dream.
Christmas settings
here and there
manger scenes
with Jesus prayer.
Christmas dreams
are found in place
given freely

Great Design

Scenes around me
seem to shine
that of wondrous
Christmastime.
White snow glistens
in my view
as it’s landed
so anew.
The distant trees
of to and fro
seem to shimmer
white as snow.
Now in starlight
I can see
moonlight shining
reflectively.
Upon the snow
of whitish glaze
I’m stood watching
in amaze.
Seeing snowflakes
gathered true
for my wondrous
Christmas view.
Painted doorways
now and then
help remind of
way back when.
Timeless echoes
seem to shine
with a Christmas
great design.

Some Think Christmas

Some think Christmas
is for shopping
with their daily
starts and stopping.
Some forget how
it is more
to give gifts
not from a store.
Giving love and
peace to shine
as the gift of
Christmastime.
Some think Christmas
is just found
as a story
Santa bound.
It’s much more than
that you see,
for it’s about
what God gave free.
On this time of
Christmas day
God sent Jesus
with a way.
Jesus gives us
ways to find
Heavens glory
peace of mind.
You see Christmas
is much more
than a present
from the store.
It’s about
Lord Jesus’s birth
saving mankind
on this Earth.

Your Goal

Freely given
day to day
God has given
when we pray.
Sometimes moments
minutes served
are the portions
we’ve deserved.
Yet some moments
that we see
are mistaken
identity.
We might often
not see true
how God’s angels
helped us through.
Freely given
blessings found
are with God’s Own
solid ground.
Let not worries
take control.
Let God help you
with your goal.

A Dreamers Ship

A winter turnstile
entered through
gives me such a
Christmas view.
Magical moments
hung with care
that God’s given
so to share.
In this turnstile
scenes are found
with white snow
upon the ground.
Also is seen
in such detail
is a dreamers
ship set sail.
The dreams of times
so faraway
through a turnstiles
distant day.
Christmas scenes
that we remember
that are found
amidst December.
A dreamers ship
will sail on through
with what seems
as so anew.
Seeing shorelines
filled with glee
with each lit up
Christmas tree.
A winters turnstile
brings a smile
that’s remembered
for a while.
All the scenes
that shine so bright
bring to mind
that Christmas sight.

Sometimes Someone

Sometimes someone
might fall down
and not display
their true frown.
Sometimes someone
might just laugh
when ones watching
come to pass.
Sometimes someone
is not showing
how their pain
is always growing.
Sometimes someone
might be seen
in the shadows
then to lean.
Sometimes someone
needs a prayer
to show that you
truly care.
Sometimes someone
then might show
how that with you
they can grow.

none compete.
Christmas portions
poured so fine
of Lord Jesus
so Divine.
In an instance
God has done
He has given
His Own Son.
Filled with passion
oh so true
for the likes of
me and you.
Christmas glory
comes in frame
now as echoes
Jesus Name.
Scenic moments
now in place
are with passion
filled with Grace.

Make New Dreams

Now and then
and when and where
bring us minutes
none compare.
Sometimes minutes
seconds too
bring us such a
Christmas view.
In those moments
that we find
some live on
inside our mind.
Christmas stockings
hung with care
while awaiting
Santa there.
Twinkling lights
upon the tree
seem to live
in you and me.
All those moments
sometimes seen
may live on
as just a dream.
Make new dreams
this Christmastime
with some blessings
so divine.
Let not problems
that you’ve found
prevent Christmas
sight and sound.

Looks Can Deceive

Looks can deceive
what lives on inside
while many people
just wish to hide.
Yet many people
seen daily true
are just deceived
the way that we view.
Looks will not always
show in detail
how on the inside
one’s going through Hell.
Looks can deceive
what’s truly the case,
for you might not
see pain on their face.
Learn to look deeper
than just what you see,
and see the person
that needs you and me.
Often our judging
just makes the things worse
as of a sad song
that’s sung verse by verse.
Look and see truly
how they may just need
a little hug truly
to help them succeed.

Signs of Times

Signs of times
are in detail
with the bout
of Heaven and Hell.
Scenes are changing
daily true
signs of times
within our view.
Scenes around me
found in place
display things
of Saving Grace.
God gives blessings
through designs
found within
the signs of times.
Often viewpoints
we see through
show us not what’s
truly true.
Look for blessings
daily seen
maybe as a
running stream.
Maybe even
a passing cloud
or some thunder
very loud.
Let not worry
steal your peace.
Remember always
God’s Release.

Haiku
for Dec 10, 2011

The sound of thunder
makes known of lighting not seen.
Search for the lightning.

Pointing at someone
leaves three fingers pointing back.
You’re not without flaw.

Anger is a bomb
that explodes without warning.
Learn to control it.

A page that is turned
could leave pieces of you found
within yesterday.

Heavens great details
come as blessings from Jesus
born Christmas morning.

A mindset person
leaves no room for any change
and so they repeat.

Lessons from today
will be stories remembered
sometimes out of sync.

In our memories
live today’s and tomorrows
that we might not want.

A simple shadow
can determine how ones are.
They mock our actions.

The night shows glimmers
of white snow that’s on the ground
lit up by moonlight.

Sounding your anger
can expose stupidity
that lives on inside.

The Christmas morning
comes with children awakening
looking for Santa.

While thinking too hard
you might just find some headaches
ending your thinking.

Beyond tomorrow
lives journeys that await you
that are not today.

Ones stupidity
can evolve into anger
through them not knowing.

The scent of Christmas
floats heavily through each day
with the sights we see.

Beginnings arrive
when the endings are in place
for time to move on.

A written letter
that no one has seen or read
might just be wasted.

Hearing a bird chirp
brings to life what spring provides
as wintertime ends.

Sorting through doorways
could leave you in much despair.
Learn to let things go.

Blessings of flowers
are as aromas we smell
as springtime prevails.

Glassy eyed people
might be without any sleep,
so don’t judge harshly.

Animal’s Greetings

Hello my friends

I hope you are doing well. All’s fairly well around here.
Both Judy and I are still fighting allergies and colds that
I might add are just about to wear both of us out. I’m in
hopes that they leave here soon LOL at least the colds :)
I realize I myself will always have trouble with allergies.
I’m hoping Judy’s isn’t as bad, but it’s beginning to seem
that way. None the less, we’ll survive. It’s looking like
we might get snow all week long starting Monday night.
It’s that time of year I guess hehehe. Oh well, I do love
snow. I just tend to get tired of it after a few months or
so hehehe. Winter is here and there is no escaping that
factor LOL. There’s still a little snow left over from when
it snowed Friday night and Saturday morning early hehe.
I took a few pictures to use as stationary. You’re in for
a big surprise in a week or so. I made a new Christmas
stationary. Although many on my facebook have seen
most of the pictures. I’m planning on adding a few more
new pictures to the lot before I use them, so keep your
eyes peeled hehehe. It’s 32F degrees right now at 9:41
in the morning hours. That’s not too bad. It’s supposed
to get up to 41F. We shall see LOL. After today the
temperatures supposed to begin dropping. Thank God
for these radiator heaters hehehe. Judy and I are going
to have some heating oil delivered Tuesday. Hopefully
we don’t run out before then LOL. The furnace is for
the other end of the house to keep all the pipes from
freezing. It’s not so much for our warmth, but it does
help a bit, hehehe especially in the bathroom where
the only vent is opened in this part of the house LOL.
It’s a tad hard to use the restroom when it’s ice cold
hehehe. So that’s the only vent I left opened in this
end of the house. The radiator heaters do a pretty
good job of keeping the chill off in our bedroom and
PC room. Actually with our computers running and
the radiator heater, it gets rather toasty in here :)
There’s not much new to report from way up here in
the Northeastern part of the USA. Judy and I are
still doing our regular things such as playing with all
our farms in FarmTown as well as all of our many
hidden object games. We’re playing one now that
is timed and it’s sort of wearing on us hehehe, but
we’re both enjoying it. We played it yesterday, but
had to stop to watch TV and do our farms hehehe.
Did farms during commercials. God has been good
to us. He’s taken good care of us and made sure
that we had all that we needed. As long as we keep
our needs not in just a wanting stage, things will
be OK. I know, we all tend to time to time find
things that we want and think at the time we can’t
live without them, but step back and see if they
are really things you need. Often we have all that
we really need within our grasp. We might need
to step out of ourselves and ask for help, but God
does provide what we need. I know many will die
due to starvation, sickness and health issues, but
there is not a loss, but a gain for they are restored
in Heaven. Death on Earth is not the end, but the
beginning of an endless journey which can be with
blessings unending or Hell without any peace. Let
God come into your heart and show you a life
beyond what you see. You’ll find blessings that
you never new existed. Now with that said, I guess
it’s time for me to begin my venture 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 lil place
that I like to call RECOLLECT VILLE. I think
I may have stumbled upon a good title. Now let’s
see what I can do with it hehehe. Here goes…..

Blessings Unending

Hopeful times
come to be
with God’s blessings
that we see.
Blessings unending
daily found
come when we find
His solid ground.
Yet we might not
see them true
in the days
of which accrue.
Often our blessings
day to day
are as echoes
as they sway.
Blessings unending
might be seen
us not knowing
what that they mean.
So those blessings
that He’s given
might be found
as He’s forgiven.
All the things
we’ve said and done
are forgiven
through His Son.

There ya go! I hope you enjoyed my rambling and maybe
even the poem hehehe. There isn’t much else happening
up here at the Pearce’s household. My sister in law Barb
is still hanging in there. Judy and her other sister Dena
went with Barbara last Thursday for more of her cancer
treatments. I’m hoping that Judy got the cold afterwards
and didn’t have it when she was with Barb. She surely
doesn’t need that on top of the cancer. I pray that she
is back to her healthy self real soon. Love ya Barb :)
Get well soon! Ok with that said, I reckon it’s time for
me to tell you what I tell you every week and that is
I wrote some more poems and haiku. Yeppers 10 more
poems with 4 of them being Christmas poems. I also
once again wrote 22 more haiku for all of my haiku
lovers out there. Now with that said I guess I need to be
searching for that old off switch, but before I do that
I need to wish you a most joyful and blessed week.
Remember, Jesus loves you and we do too. Now to
find that freaking off switch that loves to elude me.
Found it once again under the electric blanket just
trying to get warm hehehe. Hey dummy, it’s warmer
in here hehehe. My side of the blanket is OFF hehe
and I don’t think Judy wants to share her side with
you hehehe. Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

P.S. Hehehe you might notice in the dates of all
the poems that I wrote them all this morning :)
Busy busy busy hehehehehe

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehe :)

Confused Discovered

Some misleading
situations
might lead to
some devastations
when in fact
the moments found
is ones art
of sight and sound.
Some might find them
sort of seen
described as
what sights demean
while some people
day to day
might just choose
to look away.
Let your vision
taken true
not imprisoned
every view,
for the moment
you uncovered
might just be
confused discovered.

That Little Scene

A scene of Christmas
that we see
might be found
in just a tree.
Memorized
from long ago
from a tree
with spray on snow.
A simple scene
of timeless flare
that is filled
with love and care.
A scene of Christmas
sweet and true
that’s remembered
in your view
might just echo
as some pages
from some distant
wondrous ages.
That little scene
of way back when
might just be
how to begin.

Let Not Judgment

Winters coming
with its portions
displayed as some
Christmas notions.
Winter winds are
blowing true
in this seasons
through and through.
Christmas blessings
come to town
as some snowflakes
falling down.
Seasonal settings
come in sync
how that many
daily think.
Christmas values
often tarried
end with many
sights all varied.
So when Christmas
comes to town
it brings many
views around.
Some insightful
of what’s good
and some just
misunderstood.
Christmas blessings
need to shine
not just as
our own design.
Let this seasons
Christmas cheer
be what others
will endear.
Let not judgment
deceive you
just because it’s
not your view.
Remember Christmas
here on Earth
is for Jesus
and His birth.

Christmas Glory

The stage is set
as pages turn
bringing true
what I discern.
The story told
that I remember
is the time of
each December.
The stage is set
with moments told
here and now
from days of old.
Christmas mornings
brought on stage
with a wondrous
turning page.
Many blessings
come to be
through this time
of which I see.
Santa’s sleigh bells
heard in flight
are the sound
deep in the night.
Christmas Eve
as night gives way
brings such things
as Christmas Day.
Christmas morning
comes in view
as ones see
a sight anew.
Gifts beneath
the Christmas tree
brought by Santa
given free.
The stage is set
with curtain drawn
seeing all the
mornings dawn.
Christmas glory
shines so sweet
as the stories
none compete.

Misconceived

Often a segue
seen out of place
brings ones confusion
found on their face.
Often a moment
found out of line
might be a minutes
difference of time.
Often appearance
is just a phase
found in the light of
troublesome days.
Often our viewpoints
seen at a glance
are just some seconds
found as mischance.
Often a moment
that we’ve believed
is just a section
we’ve misconceived.

Just A Touch

A touch of love
from you and me
can change now
and history.
Some forgiveness
carried today
makes a better
future display.
Just a touch
of love so true
from the likes of
me and you
can make heartbeats
found in time
beat of wondrous
love divine.
So let minutes
that you share
be as magic
in the air
with just a touch
of Heaven’s scent
helping many
to repent.

A Scenes Premise

A word that’s said
that seems sincere
might be something
heard unclear.
A scenes premise
from simple views
might have many
different dues.
Things we thought
with sight and sound
might just be
so wrongly found.
The premised time
that then reviewed
could be just
what’s misconstrued.
Sometimes things
of which we see
are just times
a wrong degree.
Out of phase
before our eyes
might just be
a scenes premise.

Moons Promise

The promise that’s seen
with coming of night
sometimes is found
with no moon in sight.
The moons promise
is but a dream
found as a face
in nighttimes cuisine.
The big round figure
sometimes obscured
is but a story
of word after word.
With the many stars
that glimmer above
the moon brings glory
to ones found in love.
Some sit and stare
at the moon and the stars
while they hear
the passing of cars.
The moons promise
is but a sight
often seen clearly
with coming of night.

The Presence of Angels

With many problems
are many answers
sometimes as God’s Own
Heavenly dancers.
The presence of angels
comes at a time
when someone’s needing
God So Divine.
Sometimes their presence
is but a glimmer
found at the moment
life’s seeming dimmer.
Angels are watching us
as God provides
when we’re incurring
some bumpy rides.
So let not worry
to find you despair,
for God gives angels
with love and care.
Give God a prayer
when troubles accrue
and He’ll send angels
to help with your view.
Yet do not wait
for troublesome times,
pray now to Jesus
for future designs.

Christmas Blessings

White as clouds
the snowflakes fall
as they cover
over all.
In this season
scenes are found
with white snow
upon the ground.
Yet so many
do not see
snowflakes falling
fancy free.
Christmas moments
come and go
with the thoughts of
to and fro.
Times remembered
far and wide
are what many
coincide.
Many blessings
Christmastime
come within
a great design.
Seen by many
just so sweet
as their Christmas
meal they eat.
Sweet potatoes
and pumpkin pie
bring so many
eye to eye.
Often memories
are best seen
with a little
manger scene.
Maybe some lights
upon the tree
might be all
ones wish to see.
Christmas blessings
come so grand
when we see them
God in hand.

Haiku
for Dec 4, 2011

Guarding tomorrow
could prevent today’s venture.
Focus on today.

Lessons are painted
as the pictures are displayed
as things we have done.

The sounds of nature
are echoes of adventure
that we often miss.

Listen to the breeze
as its speaks its many words
found within the trees.

A shadow of time
might seem as an illusion,
but be found as truth.

Looking at someone
will not tell who that they are.
The truth is inside.

With a page that’s turned
brings a chance for tomorrow
if then is released.

So many stories
tell of truthful and fiction.
Learn to tell what’s right.

Beyond yesterday
lies the chances for today
found with lessons learned.

Your own decisions
can affect many others,
so heed what you do.

Tasting a snowflake
as it falls onto your tongue
can bring you much joy.

A haiku moment
that a minute brought to life
can breathe out a thought.

Seemingly subtle
some flavors are still tasted
as shadows of time.

Night lights that twinkle
could be the stars up above
dancing and singing.

With oceans of waves
come scenes hidden deep within
exposed on the shore.

Writing a story
needs a little of yourself
found in the pages.

Sometimes tomorrow
holds but only fear within
found in the unknown.

A butterflies wings
carry it on its journey
after it is transformed.

Looking passed now
might end you in more trouble.
Then has no promise.

With snowflakes of white
children build a large snowman
that withstands winter.

Braving a moment
might show your stupidity.
There’s a real fine line.

Reading someone’s eyes
finds misinterpretation
when not knowing true.

Scenery Becomes Magical

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends

How was your Thanksgiving? I know that there are
many in Canada that celebrated it in October so I hope
you had a great one as well. Christmas is soon to be
upon our doorsteps. Are you ready? We’re not, but I
guess it’s coming anyways hehehe. Judy and I haven’t
done hardly any shopping, but then, that’s not what it
is about, is it. The reason for the season tends to get
lost in the wallets of many. Hehehe our wallets are as
empty as can be so that ain’t a problem for us hehehe.
So it’s on with the journal. The weather over this way
hasn’t been too bad. It snowed Wednesday, but it’s
all gone now. Yet, I’m sure we will be getting a lot
more of that white stuff real soon LOL. It never fails.
Those of you that read this journal on Sunday might
be noticing right about now that I have begun writing
it a little later in the day than I had been doing in the
past hehehe. Hey, Judy’s home all the time now, so
I have to work it in to the new schedule :) hehehehe.
We’re both night owls and we stay up all night long
watching TV and all now that she’s unemployed and
trying to get on SSD. It might be a long wait for her
to get on SSD though, but we’ll survive for while off
of mine. God has never let us down. We’ve let our
own selves down time to time with wanna and greed,
but God has never let us down. I believe it’s time
for another topic hehehe. Today Judy and I might
play another one of our hidden object games hehe.
We finished the one we were playing yesterday :)
We like hidden object games and adventure games,
because we can play them together on my computer.
I’ve got the largest PC monitor hehe, plus there’s
not room enough for both of us to play in front of
her computer. Well, not much has changed here
at the Pearce’s household. The days are seeming
to blend together with the none changing schedules.
Hehehe, not complaining, but I often have to check
to see what day or month it is LOL. This January
I’ll be adding what year to that repertoire hehehehe.
Yep, it’s quite exciting around these parts, NOT.
Yet, we do manage to keep each other entertained.
Most people up here think I’m crazy for wanting
the snows to begin, but hey, I’m a Texan and I
still love to play in the snow and watch the white
snowflakes floating from the skies. The scenery
becomes magical as it paints the valleys and trees
with the essence of white. Hehehe, shouldn’t we
have white pools of water when the white snow
melts LOL? I know, don’t get smart with me :)
I know it’s just the oxygen caught in the crystals
that makes the snow appear as white. I can ask
dumb questions if I wanna LOL. I do thank God
for the scenes that appear right before my eyes
as the snow lands in its billows upon the ground.
I can look around and see His artwork all around
me. The clouds with their formations paint many
pictures that only Lord God has the talent for. Try
and find as many of God’s paintings as you can
today and let your worries to subside. Enjoy all
of His artwork. Now I believe it’s time for me to
be taking a trip back through all that I’ve written
here to see if I can find a good word or phrase
that might work for the title for today’s brand new
poem. So, it’s away I go to that little place of my
recollection, I like to call RECOLLECT VILLE.
I do believe I might of stumbled upon a good title
just a little ways back in my writing. I hope I can
write something that makes sense using it hehe.
Here goes nothing…..or not LOL!

Scenery Becomes Magical

The pictures that we find
in the paintings of each day
could become a porthole
to the scenes that swish and sway.
The scenery becomes magical
as seasons change and turn
giving us the blessings
that Lord God gave to discern.
Oh so many moments
in our daily minutes fare
we might find our viewpoints
without any love and care.
Search to find the blessings
that Lord God has gave to view
and then see the wonders
that are surely daily true.
The scenery becomes magical
as snowflakes fall and land
as they help some children
make a snowman that can stand.
Look at all the magical things
that live within each day
and enjoy the minutes seen
before they go away.

Okie dokie hehehe, there ya go! I hope you enjoyed
my rambling and maybe even the poem. I guess I need
to hurry and finish this so I can wake Judy and fix her
and I some much belated breakfast hehehe. Yeppers
it’s 4:49 PM and she’s still asleep. She’s gonna be up
all night again tonight LOL. Oh well, we do like to
watch the late night old reruns. An update on Judy’s
sister Barbara. She’s doing well, but in weakened
state due to all of the cancer treatments. Please keep
her in your prayers. Love ya Barb. Ok with that
said I guess it’s time for me to be telling you what I
tell you every week and that is I wrote some more
poems. Yeppers 10 more poems with four of them
Christmas poems. Also 22 more haiku for all of my
haiku lovers out there. Now with that said I need to
be searching for that old off switch, but not before
I wish you most wonderful belated Thanksgiving
and safe and God filled week. Remember, Jesus
loves you and we do too. Now to find that freaking
off switch that is often hidden in the dumbest places.
Found ya, hiding in my bad ear thinking I wouldn’t
notice hehehe. Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehe :)

A True Friendship

A true friend is someone
that will always be there
no matter what happens
when time seems unfair.
Often a true friend
will fall on their face
when troubles come
in a minutes abase.
A true friend is someone
that will surely call you
when you are needing
someone to talk to.
Yet they’re forgiven
when they have forgotten
to call you up
when you’re feeling rotten.
To have a true friend
you need to be one
also there giving
to ones that have none.
Then a true friendship
will be in place
gathered with blessings
that comes from God’s Grace.

Christmas Cheer

Seasons changing
brings to view
things now with a
whitish hue.
Mornings risen
from the night
with a wondrous
winters sight.
Moments blessings
white as snow
that remind of
HoHoHo.
Santa’s sleigh bells
will endear
all the sounds
of Christmas cheer.
Seasons paintings
that are hung
soon are all
the songs we’ve sung.
Sweet reminders
of the past
come then as a
shadows cast.

Returned

New arrivals
that we see
might remind
of history.
Segments counted
as arrived
might be what
that had survived.
Often seconds
said and done
are reflected
one by one.
New arrivals
might be found
as a timeframe
going around.
So if troubles
seem returned
look to see if
they are earned.

Letters To Santa

Letters to Santa
from children of time
are written sweetly
for presents to find.
A little girls dolly
or truck for a boy
written to Santa
to fill them with joy.
Letters all gather
at Santa’s work shop
as they have made it
to their final stop.
Santa reads sweetly
all that they wished for
a toy train for Jimmy
and for Jane a doll car.
Each letter’s written
with crayon or pencil
sent to old Santa
of wintertime’s tinsel.
At his fine workshop
old Santa will find
gifts filled with blessings
with wondrous design.
Built by the elves
just hammering away
building the presents
for soon Christmas Day.

Our History

Life of ages
counted true

scenic hue.
Time is printed
in our minds
as the stages
of mankind.
Life is sometimes

as the mistakes
that we’ve made.
Lives of sorts
from pages turned
give to us
the things discerned.
Also things
we might not see

The Rolling of Waves

The deepest seas
of heartfelt waves
bring to beaches
great displays.
Found by sunrise
waves roll in
bringing heartbeats
to begin.
It’s the depth of
seas of time
that display
a great design.
With the rolling
waves we view
different blessings
then come true.
Found momentous
in the morning

Then Christmas Started

This season’s bringing
thoughts very dear
found through the meanings
of God so sincere.
He sent us Jesus
through His Only Grace
to show us blessings
then found on His Face.
This very season
so many lose true
how that the reason
Jesus loves me and you.
Often the meanings
lose their design
when ones forget
what’s true Christmastime.
This is the moment
that’s counted for One
to do what truly
none other could of done.
It’s not the presents
or money we spend,
it’s about how
Jesus saved us from sin.
He came as a baby
then grew to a man
to show us truly
He does understand.
God didn’t have to,
but truly He knew
that we would need His
Jesus Christ view.
So He on that day
so very long ago
gave us His Blessings
with Jesus to show.
Then Christmas started
the month of December
for us to try to
always remember.

Sundial Dreams

Minutes shadows
count the view
sundial dreams
of there and to.
Patient portions
of the day
come and go
and fade away.
Sundial dreams
of here and there
display many
seconds prayer.
Seen as sometimes
faded sun
sundial dreams
are then begun.
Counting moments
shadows play
with the minutes
of each day.
Minutes essence
then are found
sundial dreams
of sight and sound.

Heavens Breath

Breathing of heartbeats
comes as a scent
as Heavens breath
and all it’s intent.
Seeming as sometimes
scented with fear
while we are wanting
love to endear.
When Heavens breathing
minutes to gain
God knows we’re ready
for then to attain.
With Heavens breath
we might misconceive
how that a moment’s
needing to leave.
Often our journals
written in mind
speak only wishing
for dreams we can find.
So allow Heavens
breath so to be
all that God’s truly
given for free.

Turning of A Page

Soon the day
will be as laid
with the truth
of Christmas made.
Scenic glory
found on cue
with the sight of
Santa too.
All the colors
will be seen
with some red
and blue and green.
Soon the music
that we hear
will be sung
like yesteryear.
Songs of Jesus
and His love
and a song of
two white dove.
The twelve days
of Christmastime
will be heard as
a sweet rhyme
The days will be
as distant seas
displayed with
a winters breeze.
Soon that day
will be on stage
with the turning
of a page.

Haiku
for Nov 27, 2011

The lights of morning
sometimes show what’s mistaken
and leave a bad taste.

A simple error
might be the needed moment
to move you along.

Looking out windows
could leave you lost in dreamland.
Keep a grip on life.

Yesterdays shadows
are only our memories
unless they’re in stone.

Looking for answers
might find you with more questions
with some confusion.

Painted memories
are as colors we have seen,
sometimes misconceived.

A letter of love
needs not be written in ink,
but written in truth.

With yesterdays past
comes glimmers of destiny
with hope for today.

Egos illusion
paints a surmounted picture
of maybe not true.

Listless confusion
creates troubles deep within
that patience could prevent.

Beyond a moment
lies a heartbeat of minutes
waiting to be seen.

Many with problems
think no one else has problems
and they are dead wrong.

Life is a story
that many read day to day
while seeking the end.

Read the many words
in the days that come and go
and don’t get antsy.

The leaves have fallen
leaving only evergreens
displayed through winter.

A line on a face
might display someone’s journey
that lives on inside.

Sometimes tomorrow
holds our fear of the unknown
preventing our today.

Lengthy discussions
will often lose perception
of the listener.

Tomorrows doorway
needs yesterday and today
to display the path.

A dreamers minute
might last for an eternity
leaving them empty.

With hurried wanna
comes portions of deception
that might end in pain.

Fictional promises
will destroy all that is good
and end in despair.

ANIMAL’S GREETINGS

Hello my friends
&
HAPPY THANKSGIVING

The winter weather is getting colder with more chances
for snow. Yep, the year is moving right along. Judy and
I are watching the seasons change together as Christmas
gets closer with every day gone by. There hasn’t been a
lot of change in our household hehehe. OK, there hasn’t
been much of any change in our household. We’re still
doing our regular scheduled stuff as usual hehehe. Right
now we’re eating cereal as our late breakfast, being we
were both up all night playing on our farms in FarmTown
and watching TV. We watched Happy Days for an hour
being there was not any other choice we liked hehehehe.
Nope, we lead one none exciting lifestyle which could put
even the worst insomniac asleep LOL. Well it’s on with
the journal to yet another topic. Judy’s sister Barbara
is doing OK, yet still having to take the chemotherapy
and her shots at home of sorts for her cancer. Please
keep her in your prayers. She’s getting real weak from
all the chemo treatments. Hopefully soon this will all be
over and done with and she can move on with her life.
I know, she’ll have to do the same as my sister and
keep tabs on it being cancer can return. My sister
Peggy also had breast cancer many years ago, but is
doing great today. Her and my mom are wanting to
come up sometime maybe next year and see the fall
colors. We shall see if they make it then. I haven’t
seen anyone since they came up the summer of 2008.
Sure wish I could travel, but health does not allow me
that privilege. If Judy was able, we could take turns
driving to Texas, but my eyes and all would not hold
up to a long drive of any sorts. Airplanes are out of
the question with their prices and accomodatons as
well as someone would have to pick me up and drive
me around here and there. Oh well, I’m hoping that
someone comes up to visit some day. Until then, I
guess I will hang loose doing all I can do to entertain
myself hehe. No matter how weird it might be LOL.
My cereal is getting soggy hehehe. I guess I need
to hurry up and eat it huh! Love that Honeycomb :)
Yep, it’s our favorite brand of cereal. Now, off of
that topic and onto another hehehehe. I thank God
for all of the scenery He gives me to look at as well
as take pictures of and the ability to write poetry that
reflects all that I can see and reminisce about as days
go by. Life is a journey which we may never truly
know or understand some of the pathways. Many
of our journeys are filled with hidden meanings that
may not come clear until time has run its course.
Oooh, mushy cereal hehehe. I knew I should of
gone ahead and eaten it before starting this hehehe.
Oh well, it still taste of its yummy goodness LOL :)
On with my rambling for a bit hehehe. As I look
outside I can see that the scenes are changing with
winters prelude and the soon coming snows. Each
day draws it more closer with every breath of winter.
God gives us these seasons to reflect upon as the
days are all counted. Throughout winter we think
of springtime and with spring we think of summer
and then fall is anticipated as winter comes again.
Be thankful for the seasons and the changing of the
days. God gives us a variety to fill us with thoughts
that conclude as dreams. Be thankful for the many
things that are changing each day. If you do not
see them, it might be because you’re not paying
attention or better yet trying to ignore them, but
changes are in the making. Learn to look for the
goodness in the changes, not just the regret for
all that has passed. This coming Thanksgiving
Day keep your heart open to thankfulness for all
that God has given. Look passed the moments that
you lost someone or something and see what all
you’ve gained. Being up here in Maine I’ve been
given the chance to see scenery that I would not
of seen if I had stayed in Texas. Yes, I miss my
home state, family and friends, but life moves on
as new shadows are made. I’m thankful for a few
new shadows in my life. One great shadow is my
loving wife Judy. We’ve had 10 years together
that I would not trade for anything. Thank You
God for all you have given. Now I reckon it’s time
for me to begin my journey back through all that
I’ve written here through my points of recollection
to see if I can find a good word or phrase that I
can use for the title for today’s brand new poem.
So it’s away I go to that place that I like to call
RECOLLECT VILLE. I believe I may have found
a good title just a little ways back, but we shall
see huh hehehe. Here goes…….

Family And Friends

Daily with lifestyles
Lord God always sends
timeless conclusions
of family and friends.
Painted with brushstrokes
lives for a while
may seem to grow to
a memorized smile.
Family and friends
with the counting of days
find ways of making
a much better gaze.
If you are empty
from family and friends
look to Lord Jesus
for His never ends,
For He’s our family
friend through and through
loving us always
no matter what’s true.
So seek now family
and friendships to find
and find the blessings
of wondrous design
found in the making
of a timeless accord
family and friends then
through Jesus our Lord.

Looking back on what I wrote, it makes a lot of sense
to me. I am most times writing to myself and just letting
you see what I wrote to myself hehehe, but often I am
writing to you all or hehehe to my loving wife. Yet the
poems are always meant to give you a smile. I managed
to finish my bowl of Honeycomb cereal before it totally
got all mushy hehe. Now I guess it’s time for me to be
telling you what I tell you every freaking week and that
is, I wrote some more poems. Yeppers 10 more poems
with 3 of them Christmassy styles. Also yes of course
I wrote 22 more haiku for all my haiku lovers out there.
I hope some of the poems and or haiku find a way into
your heart. Now I think it’s about time for me to begin
my search for that dad burned off switch, but not before
I wish you a most wonderful God filled week and also
a Happy Thanksgiving. Remember, Jesus loves you
and we do too. Now to find that freaking off switch
that seems to always try to hide from me hehehehehe.
Found ya hiding in my conglomerate of cereal milk
just wading LOL. Gotcha, see ya CLICK zzzzzzzzzz.

God bless from Bill and Judy Pearce

Now on with the poems and haiku
10 and 22 hehehehehehehehehe :)

Shadows Of Then

Time is a moment
many don’t see
as they go walking
through history.
So many people
from day to day
just try to hide
as they walk away.
Time then reminds
as days pass on by
times that were seen
who, what, where and why.
Moments are gathered
as time then records
built by the essence
of nailing of boards.
Often our moments
are seen in frame
as shadows of then
felt as the same.

The Main Point of View

Christmastimes season
is coming soon
with every essence
of Christmastimes tune.
Some of the songs
that Christmas bestows
give us the fragrance
of seasonal snows.
Christmastimes paintings
hung with a smile
bring us the glimmers
of wonderlands while.
All of the stories
told by the fire
of Christmas morning
in all its entire.
They bring us joy
through Christmassy scenes
painted with colors
of reds, blues and greens.
Christmastime thoughts
while sleeping in bed
fill us with dreams
that dance in our head.
Thinking of Santa
and all the joy
that Christmas morning
will then deploy.
Also sweet Jesus
the main point of view
will be the blessings
living in you.
Giving us hopeful
found in His peace
Christmastimes moments
make sadness cease.

Thought

Thought of sections
dreamt of views
bring to sight
of hopeful news.
Yet they’re needing
thoughts to be
sights begun
that we can see.
Dreamt so often
many find
things we wanted
time to time.
Yet those wantings
day to day
might just be
a wrongful way.
So with thinking
thoughts can view
things around
that are not true.
Use good judgment
thoughts you find
and seek for some
peace of mind.

Spread The Joy

The stage is set
for changing scenes
and the colors
reds and greens.
Scenes surround us
daily found
as dear Christmas
comes to town.
The pages turned
as fall is gone
leaving winters
daily dawn.
Christmas minutes
counted true
come on stage
to daily view.
All the pictures
hung so sweet
are the paintings
none compete.
Hung as blessings
sweetly found
as white snow
upon the ground.
Christmas moments
are in place
as the season
makes its face.
People singing
songs so sweet
with their Christmas
meal to eat.
Yet some people
are alone
and those blessings
they’ve not known.
So this season
that you find
spread the joy of
Christmastime.

Plant A Seed

This Thanksgiving
share your heart
with someone
that’s torn apart.
Let them see a
thankful view
through the sight
of what you do.
Let not greed
to find you bare
without love
and without care.
Look for thankful
through your sights
in your days
and in your nights.
This Thanksgiving
plant a seed
that is not just
full of greed.

Let Your Truth Shine

The singing of hope
that others might hear
might be the sound
of not so sincere.
Let your truth shine
as singing is found
with maybe humming
of God’s solid ground.
It takes not words
to speak of His Love
for it’s the actions
that many think of.
So if you’re singing
and not very true
about what’s living
inside of you,
take up your cross
and follow God’s Son
through His forgiveness
for all that you’ve done.

A Christmas Sight

A page of winter
turns with grace
building books
with seasons face.
Written sections
that we find
are the pages
on our mind.
Sometimes winter
will be found
with white snow
upon the ground.
A page of Christmas
then will seem
as a blessing
from a dream.
Turn the pages
with your eyes
and see all that
then complies.
See the pages
black and white
found within
a Christmas sight.

Spread God’s Love Around

Thankful people
often share
all God’s blessings
love and care.
Yet some people
just find true
all just greedy
in their view.
Also some are
found with pain
as their lives
have gone insane.
It’s those people
that need you
so to give them
love so true.
Show them blessings
of God’s grace
and put smiles
upon each face.
Then they might just
share what’s found
when you spread
God’s love around.

A Simple Blessing

A simple story
told of a time
might make the difference
of frame of mind.
A simple sentence
said so sincere
might help someone make it
another year.
A simple heartfelt
caring type word
might help a person
that’s now so absurd.
A simple minute
spent sharing true
might be the thing
that you’re needing do.
A simple break from
all that’s within
might be the thing to
help you begin.
A simple blessing
that you don’t see
might just be found
in someone like me.

Through Each Threshold

Foraging thresholds
could just explode
leaving you problems
on down the road.
Seeking for hurried
thresholds of time
might just expose
a horrible sign.
So if you’re searching
for what to do
through every threshold
found before you,
look for the signs
on doorways detail
for some will show
but only pure Hell.
Also some doorways
will not be found
truly with peace
of God’s Holy Ground.
Let your days judgment
that you unfold
lead you to goodness
through each threshold.

Haiku
for Nov 19, 2011

Sometimes deceptions
are the outer shells we see,
so look much deeper.

Lessons from speed bumps
are sometimes the best teachers
for they’re remembered.

Today gives chances
from early dawn till midnight
so make good with them.

The choices that we make
discern tomorrows pathways,
so choose them all well.

The mornings sunshine
awakens all that see it,
while others seek sleep.

Winter flowers blossom
with their life through the coldness
while others will die.

Pictures of winter
hang in the days scenery
as snowflakes of art.

The grandest of views
is seen by a newborn child
as it awakens.

Points of descriptions
come from different people
and their perceptions.

Wrinkles on a face
describe a persons lifestyle
with their smiles and frowns.

Watching the white clouds
gives a chance for a dreamer
to find many things.

The scenes in winter
are often described as white,
but often it’s not.

Morning brings shadows
that we may not want to see
due to dark of night.

One with another
brings chances for a friendship
or an enemy.

Tomorrows minutes
might just be counted wrongly.
Take care of today.

Almost in horseshoes
describes some situations
that did not matter.

Seven’s the number
describing God’s forgiveness
times seventy times.

Likable people
are often not as they seem.
Look through the exposed.

Places we travel
gather memories within
we can revisit.

Hurrying today
will not make it go faster.
It will wear you out.

Fragments of worry
can cause tomorrow’s ulcers.
Give worries to God.

Answers to questions
often come back as more questions.
Some have no answers.
