THE LAST BATTLE   

   If it would be that I grow frail and weak and
pain should keep me from my sleep.
Then you must do what must be done.
For this - the last battle can't be won.

You will be sad I understand, don't let grief then
stay your hand.
For on this day, more than the rest, your love and
friendship must stand the test.

We have had so many happy years. What is to come
can hold no fears. You'd not want me to suffer, so
when the time comes please let me go..
Take me to where my need they'll tend only stay with
me till the end and hold me firm and speak to me untill
my eyes no longer see.

I know in time you will agree it is kindness you do to me.

Although my tail its last has waved, from pain and
suffering I have been saved.

Don't grieve that it must be you who has to decide
this thing to do.

We have been so close - we two- all these years.

Don't let your heart hold any tears.......

RAINBOW BRIDGE
  Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge-
   When a animal dies that has been especially close to someone
here that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all our special friends so
they can run and play together.

Their is plenty of food,water, sunshine and our friends are
warm and comfortable.
All the animals that have been ill and old are restored to
health and vigor.

Those who were hurt and maimed are whole and strong again.
Just are we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing, they
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 runs from
the group, flying over the grass, his legs carrying him faster
and faster.
You have been spotted and when you and your friend fianlly
meet you cling together in joyous renunion, 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 the RAINBOW BRIDGE together.........

The Spirit of a GSP
I was standing on a hillside in a field of blowing wheat          
And the spirit of my GSP appeared suddenly at my feet.
He looked at me with kind dark eyes, an ancient wisdom shining through
And in the essence of his being I saw his love for me, too.

His mind did lock upon my heart as I stood there on that day
Then he told me of this story about a place so far away.
I stood upon that hillside in a field of blowing wheat

And in a twinkling of a second his spirit left my feet.His tale put my heart at ease
My fears did fade away. He helped me know where he had gone
When he left us on that day.
"I live among God's creatures now in the heavens of your mind
So do not grieve for me, my friend as I am with my kind.
My collar is a rainbow's hue,
My leash a shooting star
My boundaries are the Milky Way
Where I sparkle from afar.
There are no pens or kennels here
For I am not confined
But free to roam God's heavensAmong my GSP kind.
I nap the day on a snowy cloud
Gentle breezes rocking me
And dream the dreams of earthlings

And how it used to be.
The trees are full of liver treats
And tennis balls abound
Chew bones line the walkways
Just waiting to be found.

There even is a ring set up
The grass all lush and green
And everyone who gaits around
Becomes the Best of Breed.
For we're all winners in this place
We have no faults, you see
And God passes out those ribbons
To each everyone, even me.
I drink from waters laced with gold
My world a beauty to behold
And wise old dogs do form my pride
To amble at my very side.
At night I sleep in an angel's arms
Her wings protecting me
And moonbeams dance about us
As stardust falls on thee.

You picture me as I was on earth
Just before I died
The pain is gone I am whole again

Filled with GSP pride.
So when your life on earth is spent
And you stand at Heaven's gate
Have no fear of loneliness
For here, you know I wait.
