Beyond The Rainbow
As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.

I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.

I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.

For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.

The Story of the Rainbow Bridge

           There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth. It is called the
         Rainbow Bridge because of its many colors. 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 animals
        are young again. Those who have been maimed are made whole
                              again. They play all day with each other.

    But 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 play
and looks up. The nose twitches! The ears are up! Their eyes
are staring! And this one suddenly runs from the group!

      You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally
      meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again.
        Your face is kissed again and again and again, and you look once
                               more into the eyes of your trusting pet.

     Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together, never again to be
     separated.

The Story of the Rainbow Bridge
                    for those alone and without a friend in this life...

           There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth. It is called the
         Rainbow Bridge because of its many colors. 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.
       Those old and frail animals are young again. Those who have been
        maimed are made whole again. They play all day with each other.

     Some of them here are different. They were beaten, starved, tortured,
     and unloved. They watch wistfully as their friends leave one by one, to
      cross the bridge with their special person. For them there is no one,
               no special one. Their time on earth did not give them one.

       But one day, as they run and play, they notice someone standing by
       the road to the bridge. This person wistfully watches the reunions of
       friends, for in their life, they had no pet. They were beaten, starved,
                                              tortured, and unloved.

     As they stand there alone, one of the unloved pets comes up to them,
         curious as to why this one is alone. And as the they get nearer to
     each other, a miracle occurs, for these are the ones who were meant
       to be together. Their special person, their beloved pet, although on
      Earth they never met. With the meeting of two souls, the pain and the
                       sorrow disappear, and two friends are together.

        Then they cross the Rainbow Bridge together, never again to be
                                                       separated.
