    Summary: \textit{C. Alfes} et al. [Res. Number Theory 1, Paper No. 24, 31 p. (2015; Zbl 1388.11019)] have shown that the harmonic Maass forms arising from Weierstrass \(\zeta\)-functions associated to modular elliptic curves ``encode'' the vanishing and nonvanishing for central values and derivatives of twisted Hasse-Weil \(L\)-functions for elliptic curves. Previously, \textit{Y. Martin} and \textit{K. Ono} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 125, No. 11, 3169--3176 (1997; Zbl 0894.11020)] proved that there are exactly five weight 2 newforms with complex multiplication that are eta-quotients. In this paper, we construct a canonical harmonic Maass form for these five curves with complex multiplication. The holomorphic part of this harmonic Maass form arises from the Weierstrass \(\zeta\)-function and is referred to as the Weierstrass mock modular form. We prove that the Weierstrass mock modular form for these five curves is itself an eta-quotient or a twist of one. Using this construction, we also obtain \(p\)-adic formulas for the corresponding weight 2 newform using Atkin's \(U\)-operator.
