Comment from Suzanna Ray
Dear fellow poet, Thank you for posting this beautiful tribute to your Mother on behalf of all of us who remember our Mothers with affection and gratitude.
I only wish this genre allowed you to write many verses about your special relationship and memories. Such permission would so enrich this poem, that can only hint at something very special.

I joined Fanstory in 2012, I just returned this week. I had to undergo some major surgeries, it took some time for me to heal. You are more than welcome to fan me and see my poems...Portia/pharp

Dear pharp, can I ask if your name is Pam or Penny or something outrageous like Penelope?
-
Hi Suzanna,
You have a beautiful name, I am glad mom didn't name me Penelope...my name is Portia
-
Dear Portia, is you name pronounced with 3 syllables?
-
It is pronounced with 2 syllables
por-sha
actually some will spell their name "Porsha" or like the car "Porsche"
-
Portia, Like in Shakespeare !
-
Correct, Brutus' wife in Shakespeare.
I asked my mom where and how did she come up with my name. She told me, she would listen to a soap opera on the radio called "Portia Faces Life" this is how I can to be named Portia
-
Glad you are acquainted with the man.
Comment from Laurel Legion
Your poem fulfills the syllable requirement of the haiku and the contest. It's also a touching, poignant message to a mother lost. Good luck to you in the contest.
