Rainbow Bridge

THE RAINBOW BRIDGE

Take your time to truly remember your lost companion, remember the days you'd cuddle, watch the sun set, walk outside, keep eachother company, and simply 'hang out'. Remember the feel of his fur and his large watery eyes that showed his extreme love for you. Can't you almost reach out and stroke the head of your beloved one once again?......

The Famous Poem We All Know and Love:
Rainbow Bridge Poem

If you are currently grieving over pet loss, this poem will make you cry harder, but it will help you feel a LOT better on the inside.

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 the Rainbow Bridge together....
