The sun shines brightly
on their golden fur.
Playing with each other,
chasing one another through the garden.
Cat chases dog,
dog chases cat.
They are waiting,
waiting patiently,
tails happily wagging,
or lazily waving.
They wait,
wait for me.
I will see them again,
and they will see me again.
They are waiting,
waiting to cross the bridge,
the rainbow bridge,
with me.
