Description
Time will heal the sadness
My departure will be painful, at least to those close to me
But time will heal the sadness you feel, the mournful thoughts, you’ll see
And I want you all to acclimatise, as much as I may be missed
Particularly my husband so dear, to you I must insist
We’ve had a fantastic life together, a new one you must make
Enjoy your onward journey dear and every moment of happiness take

There will be people around you to help you on your way
As companions, as confidents, to share your time of day
For the contribution you have made to our lives and the memories which will last For me this is the end of things but in parting I say to you
The days may come, the days may go, enjoy, for they are few
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.
