In Loving Memory - Poems For A Funeral
Communicate And Uplift
By Thomas Alan Lampsen
Have you ever wondered why poetry is so often the
centerpiece of a beautiful memorial ceremony? Verse seem
like such a natural way to to offer our sentiments in
loving memory. Poems for a funeral simultaneously
communicate complicated emotions while providing us with
an uplifting experience.
Poetry is a very unique form of written communication.
The art of the poem originates in the soul of the
author, who painstakingly works and reworks his or her
creation until it is as close to pure emotion as we can
get while still using words.
Poetry is from the soul and speaks to the souls of
others. There is not other form of communication as well
suited to handle the complicated stew of emotions
associated with death and funerals.
A poem is your opportunity to share with others your
thoughts in loving memory. Poems for a funeral take many
forms and have many voices but they all share that
singular ability to create a form of pure, loving
expression.
Which poem will you choose? There is no simple answer.
There is no one funeral poem that somehow stands head
and shoulders above all others. Every situation, every
life, every person is unique. We are lucky to have a
large reservoir of evocative funeral poems from which to
choose.
Choosing the right poem to fit your situation may seem
almost impossible, especially if you have not spent a
great deal of time reading poetry in the past (and few
of us have). Fortunately, our emotional radars are very
accurate and our instinct to find the right message for
an emotional occasion is strong.
Examine a variety of funeral poems and you will
undoubtedly find something that speaks to your soul. You
will find a soul that captures the spirit of the
departed while also communicating your heartfelt
sentiments. I wish you well and am certain you will find
the perfect poem.
