There are many poems that can be used for a celebration of life. Here is an example: “When someone we love becomes a memory,
The memory becomes a treasure.
We treasure the love and the laughter,
And all the good things that come after.
We hold on to the happy times,
And all the wonderful memories,
And though our loved one may be gone,
The love we shared will always live on.” You can also use a poem that was written by the person being remembered, or a poem that was special to them. Alternatively, you can ask friends or family members to write a poem to be read at the celebration.
