“When you're in bed to-night think not of wars, But rather of the Panda fast asleep, Her piebald head cushioned on woolly paws; Or think of velvet mice that warmly creepInto their holes to curl up round and soft. Transfer your thoughts from bellicose affairs;Though it be true that bombers fly aloft,Try to reflect on little furry”

“Somewhere there must be women reading books,and talking of chicken rissoles to their cooks …(from,‘Somewhere in England’)”
