A Bridge Called Love


My little fish is not doing well. Yesterday I had hope; today I know that his time has come. By the end of the day he will be gone. I've said my good-byes and told him it was okay to go. Such a little trooper he is, and it is so hard watching him suffer, struggling to stay with us. He's brought joy to so many people throughout the years. Such a legacy he leaves behind. I'm going to miss him so.

It takes us back to brighter years,
to happier sunlit days
and to precious moments
that will be with us always.
And these fond recollections
are treasured in the heart
to bring us always close to those
from whom we had to part.
There is a bridge of memories
from earth to Heaven above...
It keeps our dear ones near us
It's the bridge that we call love.
