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 begins to quiver.
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....
