funeral verse

Since death is a certain fact that in most cases would cause grief and bereavement to the deceased's family, the existence and creation of eulogies is also certain. When a precious loved one has died, you need prayers and empathy.

But in any case funeral poems serve like an ode to the person who died. It's important to celebrate but not at the expense of acknowledging that something important has been lost. Some people come up with serious speeches honoring the deceased person while others would rather show the humorous side of the deceased person.

Remember even if it is a sea of strangers in front of you, not one person will judge you for it. A poem for the deceased that prompts that thought is invaluable after a loved one has died. Make sure that your resolution is short, especially if other people are planning on giving separate eulogies.

The eulogist has a chance to ease the pain of others by providing them with a picture of the best things about that person, something they can hold on to in the difficult days to follow. Practice delivering your eulogy in front of a mirror or a friend in order that you can see if improvements or additional editing have to be made.
