RAINBOW BRIDGE

There is a bridge connecting heaven and earth.
It is called Rainbow Bridge because of its many colors.
Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge there is a land of
meadows, hills, and valleys with lush green grass.

Whe a beloved pet dies, it goes to this place.
There is always food and water and warm spring weather.
The old and the frail are young again.
Those who are maimed are made whole again.
They play all day with each other.

There is only one thing missing.
They are not with their special person who loved them on earth.
So, each day they run and play until the day comes
When one suddenly stops playing and looks up!
The nose twitches, the ears are up!
The eyes are staring, and one suddenly runs from the group


You have been seen, and when you and your special friend meet,
You take him/her in your arms and embrace.
Your face is kissed again and again and you look once more
Into the eyes of your trusting pet.
Then, you cross the Rainbow Bridge together
Never again to be separated.
