The big occasion came and went

Much pent-up energy was spent

At evening's end - prizes clasped

As others folks queried the past



For so much hard work and polish

Deserves recognition for all comers

Just for putting words with tunes

Then merging all into media soon



The wonder is it should happen at all

Not really fair to single out works to call

One better than four others in a group

The fact is - they've all made the loop



Going from mind to instrument to mix

The glory is in all the various sticks

Used to get from point A to point B

And awards just make everyone see
