Joyfully But Sadly

Joyfully the bride tossed the flower
Joyfully the knight burst into power
Joyfully the bees were buzzing in the field
Joyfully the blacksmiths were making a shield
Joyfully the little child started to play
Joyfully the lady shook her head to stay
Joyfully the shepherd was whistling a song
Joyfully the traveller walked a mile long...
Sadly the world turned up-side down
Sadly the child got lost in the town
Sadly the boy started to cough
Sadly the men swatted the moth
Sadly the luckiest man got unlucky
Sadly the rich man had left Kentucky
Sadly my pet fish has suddenly died
Sadly my trip to Hawaii got denied...
