If only I had listened to what my mother had said
I wouldn't be in this mess I be at home instead.
Oh why didn't I listen to what she had to say.
Mother dear mother why are you always so right.
Do you have a crystal ball? That sees right into the night.
Do you know what i'm doing this very night?.
I could have been someone, you said to me that night.
But instead I choose a pig to spend my every nights?
Why don't I have your magic to see what is head.
Then I would be someone much higher than you'd expect.
When will I have your powers? to see right into the night.
And banish my pig forever right into the night.
To set me free forever without a backward glance.
I would be so happy just to have that chance.
Oh Mother dear mother I would be so happy to be just like you.
So please give me some of your powers and I can be like you.
Never to make a mistake and be oh so true.
To be as free as a bird and fly ever so high is what I want for me.
Mother dear Mother why am I not like you?
Instead of being stuck in this rut doing the things I do.
Help me see the light and I can be ever so true.
Without the light I am in the dark and there's not a thing I can do.
Mother dear Mother they sat love is blins, and that is oh so true.
To finally open my eyes to see what I do see.
It's not a pretty sight no matter if it's true.
To free me from my prison what is it I must do?
Please help me Mother and tell me.
For only you can do it and free me from this hell
Then I would grow wings and fly away to hell.

Welcome to a2k nells the poet.
Your poem is a good expression.Though your regret is understandable your yearning to be like your mother is not required.
Mothers are always right of course I'm talking as a mother
Now mother n laws they like to think they are right
Great poem

Mothers can not be always right.They are also human beings.Any mother can be more number of times right in certain issues and not so right in many issues like any other human being.We also owe it to her to allow her to be a human being and not to put her in a pedestal and make her very tense!
poem mother dear mother
I THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS,WHICH IS TRUE MOTHERS ARE ONLY HUMAN, AND WE EXPECT THE impossible FROM THEM, BUT ONLY LISTEN WHEN IT SUITS US.
