Rainbow Bridge

The Rainbow Bridge

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, water, and warm spring weather.
The old and frail animals are young again.
Those who were 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 one suddenly stops playing and looks up.
The nose twitches!
The ears are up!
The eyes are staring!
And this one suddenly runs from the group!

You have been seen, and when you and your special friend meet, you take him 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 friend.

Then you cross The Rainbow Bridge together, never again to be separated...

Evensong's Touch N Go
"Touch"

January 24, 2004 - June 27, 2008

There will never be another Pom like our "special" Touch!
He was hand raised and wasn't expected to live long, as he had many health issues.
But, he surprised us all by living for four and a half years.

Touch will be missed by myself and my husband.
He was our constant companion and had a wonderful, yet short life.
He traveled all the way from Oregon to Connecticut and back two summers ago.
When he wasn't begging for food or sleeping in his favorite donut bed, he would go for family walks, and he occasionally made a trip to work with Kevin.
One of his favorite treats was ice cubes.
Anytime one would fall on the floor from the ice maker he would be the first one in line to grab it and run.

Touch's favorite place of all was to be on our bed each and every night.
If we'd forget him downstairs, he'd bark and bark until we came to bring him up.
And yes, we had to carry him up the stairs, because he never learned how to climb them.

It was Touch's favorite place where he fell asleep on June 27, 2008, and didn't wake up.
He will be missed forever!
