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 the Rainbow
Bridge together....
