Bracken bought in 1957 died 37 years ago today and it still hurts. So does the demise of the many other dogs I have had, I do hope they are waiting for me over rainbow bridge, forget heaven if we are not reunited with the people and animals we have loved. What say you? Elaine.

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 wonderous 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 wondrful, 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.

Thanks Bev, Now i'm in floods of tears, happy tears. Elaine.

Absolutely - I would forgo the 'pleasure' of being reunited with certain of my family, if I could see my gorgeous dog, Timber, again (said 'goodbye' a year ago and it still hurts like mad).
