Whether you’re sharing a few lines in a card, during a memorial, or with someone grieving, a thoughtful poem can bring a moment of peace when it’s needed most.

Gentle and Supportive

I know your aunt meant so much more

Than simple words can quite restore.

She held a space that’s hard to fill.

Though nothing I can say feels right,

Please know I’m here—by day or night—

And holding you in kindness still.

Condolence Poems for an Aunt

Calm and Comforting

She gave you calm, she gave you cheer—

A special kind of love so near.

And now her absence fills the air.

I hope you feel her warmth again,

In softest winds or falling rain—

A gentle sign she’s still somewhere.

Warm and Unforgettable

From childhood hugs to knowing eyes,

She brought you joy that never dies.

Her love was woven through each year.

And though she’s gone from daily view,

Her presence still lives on in you—

And in the hearts that hold you near.

When You’re Not Sure What to Say

I don’t know all the words to choose

To soften what you’ve had to lose—

But I can sit with you today.

Let this small poem be my start,

To honour her and hold your heart—

When I don’t know just what to say.

Simple and Thoughtful

She gave you love in quiet ways,

And shaped your life through countless days.

Now silence seems to take her place.

I hope this poem brings a bit of care—

A way to show that I am there—

With sympathy, and gentle grace.

Respectful and Personal

She wasn’t just an aunt by name,

But someone who became your flame—

A guide, a friend, a steady soul.

And though she’s gone, your grief is fair.

She shaped your heart—and she’s still there

In all the ways she made you whole.

Kind and Constant

She was the one you’d always trust,

With wisdom offered fair and just.

That bond is something deep and true.

And though her voice is quiet now,

I hope this poem helps somehow—

To show I’m here for you.

When Words Aren’t Enough

No words can fully meet this loss,

No rhyme can bridge the line you cross

When someone close is taken fast.

But let this verse remind you true—

You’re not alone in missing who

You thought would always last.
