Trying to find Liz Lochead poem...

Has anyone heard of a poem by Liz Lochead which is called something like 'Nobody's Mother Can't Not Do Nothing Right'. This might not be quite the right title as I can't seem to track it down on the internet. I'd like to read it at my mum's memorial service as she used to have it on the wall at home when I was a kid. It's all about taking your mum for granted!

Any leads gratefully accepted....

It isn't called 'Everybody's Mother' is it? It's just a guess based on what I can google - I'll keep looking for you. Hope someone can find it!

Just wondered - what sort of date was it hanging on the wall - 70s? 80s? 90s? Might help with the search...
