There is a growing collection of funeral poems. The bards in medieval times were renowned for their use of poetry.
Poetry is a profound art form because it is so versatile and the great poets in history have used the form to show that. The first of those steps is to decide how you want to express your love. They know you so well that they know what you are going to do, even before you do it.
One of the most often quoted writers of love poems is William Shakespeare. Make it rhyme if you want, but don t think too much about it or you won t be able to write it. For a completely different approach, try a humorous poem.
Whatever you decide to stay or how you decide to read the poetry will add that personal touch. Using poetry to help with grief, to express love or pain and to memorialize a friend or family member is very powerful and will be appreciated by others who have experienced a loss.
