Description
I’m over, out and done
Hello everybody, it’s good to see you here
Albeit for a sad occasion, well, I assume that’s why some are shedding a tear
Yes, it is a funeral, and in this case, it is mine
But I’ve had a good life and am of an age where really, for me it is fine
I’ve no regrets and contributed what I could
And I hope you feel, that in your eyes, I’ve been the sort of person I should

I may not have said it in the past and now perhaps I might
You being in my life, as you were, was such a great delight

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.
