Poems for
Amigo, our friend who is in Dogheaven right now.
I can not express my feelings how I feel today.
I prayed for you that you could stay
but you were in such heavy pain and wanted to
rest,
so we had to let you go, that was the best.
Thank you for the wonderful time we have shared,
we love you forever and I always cared.
We will keep up the memories of you
till we meet again, a promise and so true.
Frida, Henk and Tess.
From your
Ingrid:
Now
I Must Go
Send
me to the Bridge I pray, When I no longer run and
play.
When my limbs can't bear my weight, And dignity
is stripped by fate.
Look
into my eyes, you'll find, I will let you know,
it's time.
You must help me from this edge, Now it's time, I
make this pledge.
I
leave you for the Bridge today, Anew, I run, I
bark, I play.
We shared a life of many things, And to your
heart my leaving brings,
The
pain of loss, I feel it too, But Master, know,
this I must do.
I must leave first, to make the way, For you to
follow me someday.
Beyond
the sunset, where all pain ends, We'll meet
again, the best of friends.
Just as I snuggled in your heart, You're in mine
too, we aren't apart.
I
watch you from afar and pray, It's time to heal,
heal some each day.
Please dry those tears and smile for me, And know
at last, that I am free.
There
is no pain or suffering here, The sun shines
brightly everywhere.
There isn't even one cross look, It's not allowed
here in His book.
No
clouds of gray will gather here, No storms will
ever threaten.
We are at peace here, And the Bridge is Heaven!

RAINBOW
BRIDGE
Just this side of Heaven is a place
called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies
that has been especially close to someone
here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There
are meadows and hills for all of our special
friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine
and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and
old are restored to health and vigor; those
who were hurt or maimed are made whole and
strong again, just as we remember them in our
dreams of days and times gone by. The animals
are happy and content, except for one small
thing; they each miss someone very special,
someone who was left behind.
They all run and play together, but
the day comes when one suddenly stops and
looks in the distance. His bright eyes are
intent; his eager body begins to quiver.
Suddenly, he breaks from the group, flying
over the green grass, faster and faster. You
have been spotted, and when you and your
special friend finally meet, you cling
together in joyous reunion, never again to be
parted. The happy kisses rain upon your face;
your hands again caress the beloved head, and
you look once more into those trusting eyes,
so long gone from your life, but never absent
from your heart.
Then you cross the Rainbow
Bridge together...
