Recently, a dear relative passed away. I tried to find a suitable eulogy poem on the Internet. However, a lot of the poetry was too long, outdated, or oozing with expressive language that didn’t feel natural. Fortunately, with the memorial service taking place a few weeks after the passing of my loved one, I had some time to write my own poetry.
Usually, however, a funeral is arranged within a few days of death. Filled with grief, we are not at our most creative. If Are you looking for a short poem or two, do not hesitate to use some of the poetry in this article.
In each of the poems you can Austausch''sie they'','''','' Oma''usw.'''','' It for him oder''Opa'','' if necessary. You may even want a specific reference to the name of the person to add 'in the title and / or text of the poem.

Eulogy – Funeral Poem Number 1:
Farewell, My Love
Her laughter echoes in the depths of my brain;
And when I hear it cause I'm sorry.
I miss her so much – mere words can not say
How is this sorrow eats me day and night …
But my memories are strong and time heals grief
So I dream of the future – and quiet relief.
As I browsemy photos with love and pride,
I know that this pain will eventually subside,
The end of happy memories in its place —
The memory of her and her smiling face.
A loving farewell, my love, adieu.
My heart belongs to you forever and ever.

Eulogy – Funeral Poem Number 2:
Death Will Lose
Her body lies breathless, in quiet sleep.
We remember their lives, we cry and cry.
Life doesn''t appear justified, and deathstill less
Don''t I understood, I must confess.
We hardly exists, in sorrow and pain;
We mourn our loss, we cook and complain …
But what they would want if she were still alive?
They want us to wallow in order to survive?
Or would she want? Maybe our courage —
To show our grief with hard work!
Let 'Honor them now, and look forward – with the hope
To cope with memories of her life and learning,
In case of lossas a tool to sculpt our goals —
Not as an anchor that burdens our souls.
Celebrate your life – memories, with a grin!
And lose the death – and they will win!

Eulogy – Funeral Poem Number 3:
How can I manage, She 'Now That's Gone?
Grandma was there when I needed an ally —
If I wanted to talk – or felt like a scream.
As no one seemed to understand —
She was there – with a helpingHand.
How can I now that she''s gone?
Without her advice I can''t go on!
She was clever and witty and one-of-a-kind;
I feel so lost because they left me.
I know she told me she wanted to —
Her body was tired and it hurt so …
Maybe it's time for me to return to —
Carry on her tradition and break this gloom —
In order to convey their wisdom to family and friends,
And life with a smile, while my heartslowly mends.
Grandma, I miss you. You''ll always nearby —
In my mind, in my heart – I have you right here.
