RAINBOW BRIDGE
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 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 very special, someone
who was 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 begins to
quiver. Suddenly, he breaks from the group, flying over the green
grass, 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 those trusting eyes, so long gone from
your life, but never absent from your heart. Then you cross the Rainbow
Bridge together...
