A Kind Mother

I always remember when
My Queen mother said to me," my son , 
My son , learn to respect adults 
in your entire  life. 
Don't allow any type of intimidation
In your entire life my first born.
I will always be proud 
Of you even after life. 
Wisdom is the friend of leadership.
Pride is a big door to failure.
Kindness is a meaning of a leader.
Goodness is a big  light above people. 
Hate is nonsense in our lives. 
Love is your beautiful companion.
Truth is your best friend. 
Jealous is the rotten foods 
That we always throw in our bins.
Envy  is the big rival to not associate with." 
My love to her is incomparable, 
She is always my Heroine.
