Here you will find the Poem I'd like to spend long hours at home of poet Lesbia Harford

I'd like to spend long hours at home

I'd like to spend long hours at home 
With a small child to bother me. 
I'd take her out to see the shops 
And fuss about my husband's tea. 
Instead of this I spend my days 
In noisy schoolrooms, harsh and bare. 
Unloved am I, since people give 
Too many children to my care.
