Some say that the age of romance has passed us while others insist that it is yet to dawn. Not everyone has the gift of language that William Shakespeare or Emily Dickinson did in their lives, but everyone can study and share their words with that special someone.
Memorial service poems can actually put everyone more at ease during a funeral or memorial service. Simple and soothing words acknowledging a loss, accompanied by a meaningful sympathy or condolence poem can touch a heart like nothing else can. It is true that publishers of poetry are about as plentiful as wheat fields in the Arctic, but there are other avenues for your poetry that can allow you to publish your material in unique and memorable ways.
If someone might buy a gift for a friend today, Shakespeare would have written that person a sonnet. Today a lot of lovers are in long-distance relationships, and there s no better way to gap that distance than mailing poems that show how much you love and miss your sweet heart. Poems ranging from heartfelt and sad to lighthearted and even funny have been written by amateur and professional poetry writers to put words to the feelings that are expressed after someone has died.
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. Whatever you decide to stay or how you decide to read the poetry will add that personal touch.
