Well we're nearing the corner to mom's day.... It's only been three months. I can't believe it. What makes it tough are all those reminders, "don't forget to send mom flowers!", "remember mom with chocolates,"... I found this little pic of me and mom from a couple of years ago. So I thought I'd start a "post a mom" thread for moms of Wilders, past or present. Show us your mom, will you? xo e  www.wordwalkerpress.com | ||

 I'm posting one more of my mom when she was 17. And a favorite Rilke poem of mine: What Survives? Who says that all must vanish? Who knows, perhaps the flight of the bird you wound remains, and perhaps flowers survive caresses in us, in their ground. It isn't the gesture that lasts but it dresses you again in gold armor - from breast to knees - and the battle was so pure an Angel wears it after you.

Thanks, Sarah. We are too cute, aren't we? The Three Musketeers. That pic of your Mom and two kids is amazing. Her character shines through. Ah, Freddie, it could mean that or it could mean something completely different. It could indicate a very strong male presence and the feel of that solidarity throughout a lifetime. My other mother (that's what I call him) has never let me fall, not once, not really (and even at 83, he's still the one who insists I can fly anywhere I want). He's my only sure bet. Unconditionally. The most amazing Mom a girl could have. The mother on the right is the same. That's one damn lucky two-year-old you're looking at. Love, M | ||

Here are some hints in the meantime: You need to click on the Upload Attachment button below the posting box. Then do what it says. The picture has to be in JPEG format (.jpg in the filename) and has to be smaller than 75K. Let us know specifically where you are getting confused. love, love, swinka | ||

Sarah that photograph is a photographer's dream. I don't know who took it but it holds such tenderness in it. The light, the expressions make this photo into art. I didn't know you are from (or live) in Germany! Wow lucky you. One of my best friends lives in Hamburg. I hope to see him in the next year. Where are you? Rania happy M's Day to you too! I still love the effect of black and white and often change my photos just for that effect. My mom lived in a world of black and white mediums. When she went to see The Wizard of Oz for the first time (you know how the movie changes to color mid-picture) this was supposed to be one of the first films with color so it was really a big deal. (At least that's what I heard!). Dearest M you are so lucky to have two moms. Is that how you became the Mother of All Mom's? You had a double dossage so you are very lucky. You totally have your mom's charming smile. Thank you for posting this beauty. Fred as an abductee, I am assuming that your parents may not have been of earthly origin. That would explain a lot Laz I went to check out the video but I got "this video is no longer available". Can we try again? I would love to see this video (and photos too if you wanna). Brenda, I'm sure there is a simpler way. Most of the photos that you take are too large to upload on Wild. I use a website called photobucket where I can upload my photos and then downsize them so that they are appropriate for websites (there is a size that you choose for websites). Once it shrinks down, I right click and save it to my pictures folder and then upload from there. If you have a photo program, there's a much easier way and I'd like to now if anyone has a better one. Show us your momma! Love, e www.wordwalkerpress.com | ||

Dearest E -- thanks very much. Yep, two Moms is bound to produce an aberration.  I'm not sure what it's like to have a Dad in the classic sense, especially not a remote one. I'm thinking maybe two Moms is better. Thank you so much for starting this thread. Your mother is lovely. And I'm sure she's looking down on you and is very proud of what she sees. Dearest borrachita -- Ah, so this is Abuelita Bonita. Now when I see her in my head, I will know what she looks like. Don't worry about not knowing how you did it. Practically every good thing I ever did, I don't know how I did it. But I think it has to do with magic and people in our lives who are bonita. love, love, swinka | ||

Dear Laura, you are so nice as always, thank you, Hi Jim Devlin, thank you for your warmly words and I am glad to meet with you, and Hi Rania, how nice you are all, thank you, nice to meet with you too, and my dearest Lois, of course, there is always so beautiful people around us, and I can't say opposite of this, so you can understand me why I love poetry so much, only heart talks and only poets can understand and feel the depth of the words. "Mother" was always so special in all times and never can change this, mothers are great. yes, maybe I wasn't lucky for to have a real mom, but I was so happy with my Dad, he was my fiend, my master, my father... but he died so young. To be honest, I learned how to be a mother with my beautiful son, he is my life, my everything, this is my proud of course. This is our photo when he was a child...(He is now in Italy for his master grade about architecture and he is 25 years old) I don't have right now a new one on digital file. Maybe later and also I don't have my mom's photo in digital place, but she was so beautiful woman, black hair, blue eyes... But I know the beauty can't be enough... my grandmother, she was so nice one and I was her child as if... maybe later I can put their photos in digital files.  Thank you for you all, you are all so nice poets with your beautiful spirits and hearts, once again, I wish you to have a nice day, with my love, nia http://www.freewebs.com/butterflywingsofnia/ "Carry the beauties;wash the badnesses with your poetical spirit" | ||

a suggestion, to anyone of you who has a digital camera; if you want a digital photo of a picture you have, take one. put the album or picture in a well-lit spot without glare, and take the photo. DO NOT USE FLASH. Zoom in as much as you have to to get the picture, and if you have photo shop or another photo imaging program on your computer you can crop it, sharpen it, all sorts of things. And since it's digital you can take as many as you like without running out of "film". | ||

Laz there is so much I love about the photo of you and your mom, in addition to the obvious tender moment shared--the expressions, the hair, the soft clothing. I loved the chic of the 60's. There was something very special about that era. Perhaps it was the last of the Jackie O elegance, which mutated into 70's disco kitche and 80's big hair etc. Thank you for posting this. Hey Lisa, you're from Decatur, I'm from Chi-town. Your mom looks like she's having a great time! So relaxed and pleased with the day. The straw hat suits her don't cha think? Adore the pic of your mother-in-law and Fil. Their love really comes through in this photo. I had a wonderful mother-in-law, she was the one of the joys of my life. Even after my husband and I divorced she would call me up and ball on the telephone and tell me there was no one to take my place. The breakup was tough on all of us. Wish I had a pic of her scanned in. BY THE WAY ALL....for those who do not have digital shots of your parents, you can scan a photo which is what I did with both of mine above. I have a scanner at work. It converts to a jpg very easily. I plan to scan many of my mother's photos and put them up on Picassa. Just a few there now. Wow Fred...that hurts (a fine poem BTW). A nice Aunt? A fairy godmother perhaps (I hope)? Brenda, she’s stunning. Don’t you love these youthful pics of our parents? Nia you look so free and alive in this photo and your son so happy! I love the background – you could be on a rooftop. Your son is very lucky to have a loving mother like you. Happy Mother’s Day to you darling. Teresa your mom looks so lovely and stylish! And “chubby” is pretty stylin too. Looks like you were dressed up for something special. Thank you for posting this. There is something wonderful about seeing all these moms. Morgan I didn’t know your mom passed when you were so young. I hope there is a photo or two salvaged somewhere in the family. If so, you can have the photo scanned. Any Office Depot or Staples or Kinkos can do it. Photo or no there are plenty of mamas here for everyone! Judy that’s a great idea! Thanks for the tip. MV glad to know your browsing m’dear. I keep returning too. These photos have given me a great deal of warmth. Well I’d love to see one of the men representatives of Wild post a pic or two. This isn’t a girlie thing. Any men out there with moms, adopted moms, pseudo moms, girlfriend/moms? Thank you all. Love, e (Message edited by emusing on May 10, 2008) www.wordwalkerpress.com | ||

Graveside She lost her own parents in the flood, a half-century ago and she, too, was swept away later, late at night, a year ago, gone on into the swell to meet them there. Now the green earth is filled with sun, light everywhere, warmth floods the outstretched lawn, deep in a summer she never reached. Come back to visit us now; come back now when the gardens are filled, the aspen sway in the afternoon breeze, the bees and waterfalls buzz and rush. Come back in the midnight hush, in the light splash of the river on its rocks. Come back to us now that the last of summer gives way to the first of fall. I turn a page under clouds, under a sun that warms, under a weight of days. I wait for a sign. I am singled out. I stand, alone in an empty space; see you in the summer’s ending, standing by a rosebush, holding a rose and looking down across the hill at a far horizon under flat-bottomed clouds, no sound but the rattle of leaves, no scent but sandalwood incense and the fresh-cut hay. Under this huge blue dome, we must seem so small to you now, who knows no bounds, who must see everything, all at once, clearly. --Ron. Eggs Over Tokyo | ||

Thanks for the kind comments, e. We had a nice celebration today at my mom's though it was cold, windy, and rainy. We had my MIL over too as this is her first mother's day without her mom (she died last summer) and my husband is her only child and he was going to be at my mom's cookout. Everyone had a good time. My mom gave my grandma a digital picture frame and she had the Elvis song "You were always on my mind" playing while photos were flipping. Grandma cried. Fortunately she began laughing later though because some of the photos were ridiculous. (my mom and step dad dressed as clowns, my grandpa dressed as a woman for halloween, bad hair-dos etc.) Hope everyone else had a good day. (Message edited by diamondwife on May 11, 2008) Lisa England

I am going to keep this is my favorite poems folder to refer back to if you don't mind. Chris, Yoria looks very fair in her finery. I love the hat. I miss those days when a woman could make a personal statement with her hat. And of the picture of you, there's a fine glow on the screen, must be your poetic aura coming through! Hope you both had a lovely day. Laz such a tender moment. You mom has an eternal elegance woman envy. A beautiful photo. Thank you for posting this! Nia, your mom is a beauty. But seeing your picture, I would imagine nothing less. I look at these photos of Epheus and old Rome seems like a sacred veil over the city. I’d get lost in a place like that. It might take a lifetime to aborb it (or more). Have you read the Memoirs of Hadrian? Rod this is an extraordinary photo. When I look at my mother’s family photo with my grandmother I notice no one is smiling. You know, I think this smiling business is sort of an enforced behavior that came in somewhere in the 40’s. I think that’s why some people shy away from photos too. Natural facial expressions can really expose the person’s character more than a smile. But that’s just my philosophy. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your photo here. Lisa if grandma cried from mom’s gift that’s a score! I love these digital photo frames. Been thinking of getting one when I saw it at Aaron Bros. Now I look at this and say “why didn’t I think of that?” I’m having a quiet day alone. My house was turned upside down yesterday as I had my living room floor refinished and was out all day with a friend. Today, I’m putting things back (rearranging more like it) and posting my on-line poem in a paid workshop I joined with Tom Daley on ekphrastic writing. Hoping to come out of it with a few good poems.
