Best Poems for Funerals Funeral Poems

Solitude

Laugh, and the world laughs with you,
Weep, and you weep alone,
For sad old earth must borrow it’s mirth,
But has trouble enough of it’s own.
Sing,and the hills will answer;
Sigh,it is lost on the air,
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.

Rejoice,and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they will turn and go.
They want full measure of all your pleasure.
But they do not need your woe.
Be gald, your friends are many,
Be sad,and you lose them all.
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life’s gall.

Feast,and your halls are crowded,
Fast,and the world goes by.
Succeed and give – and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a large and worldly train
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.
Ella Wheeler Cox

I know I have to let you go.
How I will, I do not know.
I know that it's your time to die.
What I don't know is how to say goodbye.
I'll miss you so much I don't know what to do.
I guess I'll just end this poem with a goodbye
and an I love you.
Jenna Leigh Walters

I Would Rather Have A Little Rose

I would rather have a little rose
From the garden of a friend,
Than to have the choicest flowers
When my stay on earth must end.
I would rather have a pleasant word
In kindness said to me
Than flattery when my heart is still
And this life has ceased to be.
I would rather have a loving smile
From friends I know are true,
Than tears shed round my casket
When this world I bid Adieu.

Epitaph on a friend

An honest man here lies at rest,
The friend of man, the friend of truth<
The friend of age, and guide of youth:
Few hearts like his, with virtue warmed,
Few heads with knowledge so in formed;
If there’s another world ,he lives in bliss;
If there is none, he made the best of this.
Robert Burns

**

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Always loved, always missed, and always very dear.

**

Keep her/him Jesus, in Thy keeping,
Until I reach that golden shore,
Then dear Saviour let me have her/him,
And love her/him as I did before.

**

If we could have one lifetime wish,
One dream that could come true,
We'd ask with all our hearts,
For yesterday and you.

Remembering My Thoughts of You

God sent me an Angel to call my very own,
I thought we'll always be together from this day on.
I remember all the good times
and the awesome lovemaking we shared.
All the hopes and dreams we had,
nothing in my life could ever compare
I will always remember your sweet angelic face,
With a smile brighter than the sun light,
with such beauty and grace.
There will always be a place
deep down in my heart,
a special place where only you
will occupy that part.
I remember the way your body felt
as I held you close to me.
In my heart and in my soul
is where you belong and will always be.
Angela Alldredge-Cryer
