In Loving Memory Of A Courageous Horse
Who Captured The Hearts Of The Nation!
We Will Miss You Barbaro!
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 are maimed are made whole again.
They play all day with each other.
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 they suddenly stop playing and look up!
Their noses twitch...their ears are up!
Their eyes are starring!
And they suddenly run from the others.
You have been seen...
And when you and your special friends meet
You take them in your arms and embrace.
Your face is kissed again and again and again...
And you look once more into the eyes
Of your trusting pets.
Then you cross the rainbow bridge together
Never again to be seperated.
