Beyond the Rainbow
As much as I loved the life we had
and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and
knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wonderous image
then a place that’s trouble-free.
Where all of us can meet
again to spend eternity.
I saw the most beautiful Rainbow,
and on the other side
Were meadows rich and
beautiful-lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows
as far as the eye could see.
Were animals of every sort
as healthy as can be!
My own tired, failing body
was fresh and healed and new.
And I wanted to go run with them,
but I had something left to do.
I needed to reach out to you,
to tell you I’m alright.
That this place if truly wonderful,
then a bright Glow pierced the night.
‘Twas the Glow of many Candles
shining bright and strong and bold.
And I knew then that it held your love
in it’s brilliant shades of gold.
For although we may not be together
in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord
no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me,
we’re never far apart.
If you look beyond the Rainbow and
listen with your heart.
