The Rainbow Bridge

Author unknown


There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth. It is called the
Rainbow Bridge because of it's many colours. Just this side of the
Rainbow Bridge there is a land of meadows, hills and valleys with
lush green grass. When a beloved pet dies, the pet goes to this place.

There is always food and water and warm spring weather. The old
and frail are made 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 this one suddenly runs from the group! You
have been seen, and when you and your special friend meet, you
take him or 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 never again to be separated.
