[RC] Poem to help grieving horse owner - Mateef

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 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....
