The Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place
called
Rainbow Bridge.
When
an animal dies that has been especially close to
someone here,
that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special
friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our
friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored
to health and vigor.
Those who were hurt or maimed are
made whole and strong again,
just as we remember them
in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals
are happy and content, except for one small thing;
they each miss someone very special to them,
who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the
day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the
distance.
His bright eyes are intent.
His eager body
quivers.
Suddenly he begins to run from the group,
flying over the green grass,
his legs carrying him
faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special
friend finally meet,
you cling together in joyous
reunion, never to be parted again.
The happy kisses
rain upon your face;
your hands again caress the
beloved head,
and you look once more into the trusting
eyes of your pet,
so long gone from your life but
never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
