THE LIFE OF A POLICE DOG
You brought me home, one sunny
day. With
you for years, I would surely stay.
I met your pack, the children & wife,
I loved my new home and my new
life.
I slept on your couch, at the foot of
your bed,
You looked at me lovingly while
petting my head.
For months we did train and our
bonding grew,
We're both partners & buddies in blue.
We did school demos and never did
wrong,
Over the years, my love did grow strong.
How I loved to work, stand up
and bark,
In the back of our car, from light
until dark.
We went call to call, having fun all
the way,
Until the call came on that one fateful day.
A man with a gun, the
dispatcher did say,
I jumped from my car when it pointed
your way.
Before leaving home, I was told
by your wife,
I knew at that moment, I'd give you my
life.
The bullet struck hard, steady
and true,
The bullet struck me, instead not
strike you.
When you go home, tell your wife I did
good,
Strong, tall and proud on the ground that I stood.
I'm dead and gone now, this
much is so true, But I've done my job well in protecting you.

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....
