 The notes which form part of the post explain the provenance of the poem and include a photo of JC with her mother taken when the poet was about two years-old.

“As the notes show, I am often torn between writing about my mother or even speaking about her, given how much of a private person she was. I don’t want to intrude. Or in any way erode the closeness of our relationship even these many years after her death,” JC added.

 “I am grateful to Silver Birch Press for publishing this poem on the day of what would have been my mother’s 106th birthday.”
