The best poems for funerals are ones which you can visualize your loved one through, a certain word, phrase or even the entire poem should feel as if it was written about them. Funeral or memorial services are also a means to share in the pain and express love for the deceased in order to heal.
As much as the poem is written as a tribute to the deceased, it should also be considered as a reassurance to the living. Even so, it does not have to be looked upon as a daunting task. A eulogy is designed to memorialize and celebrate the good things in the person's life.
This may include a request for a certain person to perform the service, the choosing of particular flowers, and even the selection of funeral music. Some people actually find it easier to stick to a theme, during the writing process, making it a bit easier for the words to flow. Noteworthy personal habits and a little humor are usually mixed in with mention of special accomplishments and attractive personality characteristics.
It takes time to grow in love, faith and hope. A little time and preparation in the writing stage can make a huge difference in the impact of your delivery and can help you and your friends and family in their time of need.
