Regardless if the eulogy is about a loved one, a co-worker, a friend, while you are grieving the last thing you desire to do is stand up in front of a group of people you may or may not know and bare your soul, emotions and your grief. There is a growing collection of funeral poems.
People who attend funerals must be aware of the proper etiquettes to be observed during this time. One detail that often escapes even the most thorough planner is to write an obituary. A poem can be about the life of the one who has passed or just kind words.
It is important to sit down, take a deep breath and write down a few points you can make. You may choose to concentrate on a particular aspect of life of the deceased. They become a reflection of ancestors lives for generations to come.
It is a wonderful idea to include any major achievements that occurred during the person's lifetime. If you are gifted with the blessing and talent of writing poetry for the dead, share it.
