Thomas was described by British Poet Laureate Ted Hughes as "the father of us all." Thomas's poems are noted for their attention to the English countryside and a deep love of rural England. The short poem 'In Memoriam' exemplifies how his poetry blends the themes of war and the countryside.On 11 November 1985, Thomas was among 16 Great War poets commemorated on a slate stone unveiled in Westminster Abbey's Poet's Corner. The inscription, written by fellow poet Wilfred Owen, reads: "My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity." He was killed in action soon after he arrived in France at Arras on Easter Monday, 9 April 1917.
