Sophie--My Heart, My Joy

Rainbow Bridge

The Rainbow Bridge is the theme of a work of poetic prose written some time between 1980 and 1992, whose original creator is unknown. The theme is of an other-worldly place to which a pet goes upon its death, eventually to be reunited with its owner.

    Sophie--My Heart, My Joy

    This is to honor my little Sophie Joy.  She went to Rainbow Bridge two years ago after going to the vet for a "simple test". This was five days before her third Birthday.  A life far too short, but so abundantly full.  She was given to me for a special time.  She did not return home, but remains in my heart.

    Sophie--

    You were a very special gift given to me by God. 

    You are an inspiration--A clear picture of love, Unconditional

    You are a picture of joy

    You are a true love of my life and you were truly loved and will never be forgotten.

    When I see the sun and the stars, I'll think of the light you gave my life

    When I see the grass, I'll think of the calmness and peace you gave my life

    When I see squirrels and birds, I'll think of the excitement you gave my life

    When I see a ball, I'll think of the fun you gave my life

    When I see a treat or bone, I'll think of the delight you gave my life

    When I think upon your eyes, I'll see your passion for life

    When I see you, I remember the joy you were for my life

    There was no other love like my Sophie's love

    The many facets of Sophie shined brighter than any diamond

    The joy you gave me will forever shine as the stars in the sky

    The love we shared will always live in my heart

    You are missed my little girl and you are loved so very much.

    My Baby Girl

    Growing into a beautiful little girl

     My beautiful young lady   Sophie---My heart, My Joy

      I'm so sorry she was taken away from you so suddenly and at such an early age. Your tribute to her is beautiful; it's clear that you still love her very much.

    I'm sorry about your sweet Sophie.  They say time heals, but I don't think it does.  The grief just gets somewhat more bearable, yet it is still always there...

    • Gold Top Dog

    It's true - the grief never really goes away - we just manage to tuck it away, deep down and out of our daily consciousness.  I'm so sorry you lost her so young and so unexpectedly.  She was absolutely beautiful.

    What a beautiful tribute to Sophie. The pictures are absolutely amazing. I am so sorry for your loss.

    What a beautiful tribute to Sophie.   She was obviously sent to bring a message - I'd bet it was a message to show the true meaning of love.   Her job was done and she went home.  You'll see her again, I'm sure.   But there's no rush - you can each enjoy the time at the place you're at now until the day you're reunited comes.
