The Rainbow Bridge
"Just this side of Heaven is
a place called The 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 and 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 miss someone very
special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together,
but the day comes when onesuddenly stops and looks into the distance. The
bright eyes are intent, the eager body quivers. Suddenly they begin to
break away from the group, flying over the green grass, their legs carrying
them 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......."
