Robert Duer Claydon Finch (May 1900-Jun 1995) | Canadian

We think we might adopt two children and
The problem is to know which kind we want.
Not Canadians. Refugees. But they can’t
Be Jewish. A couple of Spaniards would be grand
If they were fair. My husband hates dark hair.
Afraid they are mostly dark in any case.
Germans would do, we don’t care about race,
Except Chinese, must draw the line somewhere.

So, would you let us know soon as you could
What sort’s available? We have a car
And would be glad to come and look them over
Whatever time you say. Poles might be good,
Of the right kind. Fussy? Perhaps we are
But any kids we take will be in clover.
