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 The Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and
hills for all are 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 were 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 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 in 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
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.......
