Rainbow Bridge Poem

[oneteaspoon]

By the edge of a wood, at the foot of a hill

is a lush, green meadow where time stands still

Where the friends of man and woman do run

when their time on earth is over and done

For here, between this world and the next

is a place where each beloved creature finds rest

On this golden land they wait and they play

till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day

No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness

for there they are whole, their lives filled with gladness

Their limbs are restored, their health renewed

their bodies have healed with strength imbued

They romp through the grass, without even a care

until one day they start, and sniff at the air

All ears prick forward, eyes dart front and back,

then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack

For just at that instant, their eyes have met

together again, both person and pet

So they run to each other, these friends from long past

the time of their 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

at Rainbow Bridge

That's lovely. :)

I just hope that it's true.
