Rainbow Bridge - 虹の橋

Rainbow Bridge

Have you ever heard about a poem called "Rainbow Bridge"?
It is a poem describing the human-animal bond in heaven.

We'll never be parted right?
It has been almost a year since my dog, my beloved little brother, got rest his soul.
Well, I still can't believe it.
I feel as if he were somewhere around me yet.
It was soon after he became ill. Just one or two days.
What I have to thank for and I feel relieved are that he didn't suffer from anything.
He drew his last breath peacefully in the arms of my mother.

Every night he knocked on the door of my room after my family went to bed.
He knew I was still awake.
He was kinda lonely, huh? Then he slept beside me, sometimes even snored.
I had to be quiet and type on my computer keyboard softly because of him.
It is interesting, isn't it?

I guess I gotta stop writing about him.
It's gonna be long long sentence if I continue, you know, good old memory.

Oops! I forgot writing about this category. I guess I do not need to explain it, though.
In this category I post YouTube videos of adorable animals that make us happy.
Come and enjoy when you are sad, disappointed and angry and you have something that doesn't seem to work well.
I'm sure everything is gonna be all right after watching those animals.

Well, I hope you feel something, say something tender, soft, warm or you know whatever, from the poem "Rainbow Bridge", (虹の橋).
I looked up this poem carefully on internet.
Then I've found there are two types of Rainbow Bridge.
The differences between those two are slight.
I figured the one I post below was correct.

Rainbow Bridge - 虹の橋

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 to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together,
but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance.
His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers.
Suddenly he begins to run from the group,
flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted,
and when you and your special friend finally meet,
you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again.
The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head,
and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet,
so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
