BIRTHDAY MEMORIAL POEMS

Birthday Memorial poems and verses for remembering your loved one either on their birthday or anniversary of their departure (death memorial verses available by the link at bottom of this page or under loss in the navigation bar). These can be adapted to suit mother, father, husband, wife, sister, brother, child, grandparents and friends etc.
It is hard when you loose a loved one you cannot dismiss their birthday or forget their passing and it is hard to know the right thing to do. From personal loss I know I have felt better by buying flowers accompanied by a card with a verse and leaving them in the place I feel closest to the person.

Please note! These poems/verses can be adapted easily and names substituted by ones in brackets to suit your loved one

Today is your birthday and we would of celebrated in some way
I cannot let it go without some mark of this day
So my dear (sister) this is the place where
I will wish you a happy birthday so you will know I still care

We can no longer celebrate together another added year
But this does not mean I forget and that I no longer care
My darling (husband) I remember every day
The time we had together and the time you went away

My dearest (mother) how I would love to say
A very Happy Birthday to you on this day
I will say it anyway in the hope that you can hear
Whilst I have a piece of birthday cake and give you a little cheer

Birthday Memorial Poems

(Dad) we really miss you and especially on this day
A day when we would have celebrated your birthday in your chosen way
But we will have a drink in memory of you
Indeed why stop at one we will have a few

I still buy the flowers on this day each year
It has been a routine without which I would despair
How can I stop it would be like I was forgetting you
And my darling (wife) that is something I could never do
So Happy Birthday my love wherever you may be
I have bought your favourite blooms which I hope you can see

My beautiful lovely darling child
On this day the tears I cannot hide
We would be celebrating your (5th) birthday
But you were cruelly taken away
So until the day when we celebrate again together
Please know your (mummy) forgets you never

My (friend) we always spent this day having fun
But now it's a thing that cannot be done
But I still have those birthday memories every year
Of a great (friend) who was always around because she cared

Birthday Memorial poems

Today I am so very sad that you are not here with me
Because today would have been your birthday so I am sad as sad can be
That we are no longer together celebrating like we used to do
My darling wife/husband (dearest friend) I do so miss you

By Margmax 2011

As your birthday comes around each year
I look for a way to show how much I care
I look for a place to feel close to you
So that I can remember the things we used to do

I feel very sad because you are not close to me
and I wonder if it's true that in death once again you will be
So my darling (sister/husband etc) today I hope somehow you will know
I think about you often because I loved you so
