The Rainbow Bridge

There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth.  It's called the Rainbow Bridge because of its many colors.  Just this side of the bridge there is a land of meadows and hills and valleys with lush green grass.  When a pet dies, it goes to this place.  There is always food and water and warm spring weather. The old and frail animals are made young again.  The crippled or maimed become whole.  They play with each othr all day long.  There is only one thing missing; the special person who loved them on Earth.  So they run and play for days on end, until suddenly one stops and looks!  The nose twitches!  The ears are up! The eyes bright and expectant!  Quickly, this one rund from the group.  You have been seen, and when you and your special friend meet, you take him into your arms and embrace with unrestrained joy.  Your face is kissed again and again, and you look into the eyes of your trusted friend who has been waiting for you.  The you cross the Rainbow Bridge together, never again to be seperated.
