Subject: At Rainbow Bridge

At Rainbow Bridge

At Rainbow Bridge
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 here 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 lover that will last forever. and then side by side
they cross over together.

Inspired by a Norse Legend

This was the poem on the card that the Pet Hospital
sent us. Just typing it into the computer choked me up.
Its still hard it has been a week and a day.
well it has been a rough day, with the weather we have
had all day today here in Ohio.
has snowed off and on all day, and I doubt I will be working tommorrow the way it looks right now
