Title: Rainbow Bridge Poem
Post by: Bonnie on Oct 30, 2006, 03:00:02 PM
When I was at the vet's office, there was a poem framed and hanging on the wall. I was able to find it a copy on the web and thought that you all might enjoy reading it too. If you have ever lost your beloved pet maybe it will bring you some comfort.

Rainbow Bridge Poem
   
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 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 Rainbow Bridge together....

I can't wait to see my last little doggie again! Though she may have been a mutt to others, she was a special little furbaby to me...
