Joy and Sadness
Joy is when you are happy and excited but darkness will fall, sadness covers and you are hit by sad and lonely cloud.

Joy, a young horse crazy girl gets her first pony, the smile on her face, lets you know that’s she’s happy.
Riding out with her pony, competing and winning blue ribbons, not a worry in the world, winning first place every time.
Suddenly she grows to big for him.
Her eyes fill with tears, tears of sadness.
Her and her mother put an add in the local shops and paper.

She receives many calls and finally picks the right home for him, it has friends and everything.
The day comes, again tears come, and the big truck comes to take him far out west.
He is loaded and they drive away.
She is heartbroken.

Sadness has come and Joy is still to be discovered.
