THE RAINBOW BRIDGE

anonymous

By the edge of a wood, at the foot of a hill,
Is a lush green meadow where time stands still,
Where the four-legged friends of men can run
After their time on earth is all done.

Here, between this world and the next,
Is a place where our beloved pets find rest;
On this golden plain, they wait and they play
Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day.

No more do they suffer, neither pain nor sadness,
For here they are whole, their lives are all gladness.
Their limbs are restored, their health renewed,
their bodies are healed, their strength imbued.

They romp in the grass with never a care. . .
Until one day they stop! And sniff the air!
Their ears prick forward, eyes dart front and back. . .
Then all of a sudden one breaks from the pack!

Just at that instant, their eyes have met. . .
Together again, human and pet!
They run to each other, friends from long past,
The time of the parting is over at last!

The sadness they felt while they were apart
Has turned into joy once more in each heart.
They embrace with a love that will last forever
And then, side by side, they cross over . . .together!
