Check out "Funeral Blues," an elegy by W. h. Auden. George Eliot, also, who wrote: The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come to visit us, and we only know them when they are gone.

Well there are some great remembrance poems. I really like the ones for remembrance day such as Flander's field. Or also google Frans Candles and look at the poems he has written.

A wonderful poem for a memorial service is 'I Did Not Die', which begins "Do not stand at my grave and weep." Also, Helen Steiner Rice or Emily Dickinson poems.
