Description
From today there will be closure
Like most of those before us
About my parting I had no choice
But in these words of comfort
I speak without a voice
From today there will be closure
My parting now complete
My journey now concluded
I’m effectively, obsolete

You’ve been there through my lifetimeWe’ve shared the joys that befall
We’ve hugged and loved, emotions tugged
And given our every all Thank you, thank you, thank you,
As saddened as you must be
As time goes on, make the most of life
And no more please think of me.
About the Author
Keith Stokes-Smith was brought up in Solihull, moving to Worcestershire in 1997. Writing poems came easy to him in his twenties and early thirties.
In 2016, his mother passed away. Two weeks later, on a train journey to London, he belatedly wrote a bespoke poem for her funeral and wrote it as if she had composed it to be read out by her at her funeral; a strange concept you might think. From then on he found himself uncontrollably inspired to write more adopting words spoken by fictitious people of fictitious ages in fictitious circumstances. In essence, he has tried to be in the mind of the reader. His poems may be considered somewhat unique coupled very often with them having a sense of humour.
