Planning what to say at a funeral can be a hard task and here is another of my favourite funeral poems. It is called Remembrance Day and will make the funeral that little bit more special.

Also feel free to browse our website for other fantastic poems for funerals.

Eleven O’Clock
The crowd is gathered
Blood stained lapel

In a silence of white crosses
The granite monument inspires
Bronze men, stand up!
The people commemorate
your sacrifice
Paraded from the
horrific maelstrom
All wars mistaken
Memory engraved with
the chisel of war
Outpourings of feelings

In a wreath of poppies
A mother offers the last lament
Of a son fallen
for his country

O murderous war!
When will you
drop your guns?

By Denyse B. Mercier
