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 vigour;
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.”
